epically beautiful hq pop!tech performance of immi's new song, "wait it out," off her upcoming album, ellipse.

lyrics:

where do we go from here?

how do we carry on?

i can't get beyond the questions...

clambering for the scraps,

in the shatter of us collapsed.

it cuts me with every "could-have-been."

pain on pain on play, repeating.

with the back-up make-up life shift waiting.

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out...?

there's nothing to see here now,

turning the sign around,

we're closed to the earth til further notice.

clambering for the scraps, clambering in the light.

we're closed to the earth til further...

all-in-one, only one street-level miracle.

i'll be an out-in-out, born-again from none more cynical.

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out...?

...and sit here cold?

we could be long gone by then,

and lackluster.

and dust will layer on old magazines.

fluorescent lighting sets the scene,

for all we could and should be being,

in the one life that we've got...

everybody says,

that time heals everything.

but what of the wretched hollow?

the endless in-between?

are we just going to wait it out?

just going to sweat it out?

just going to sweat it out?

wait it out.

@Vinerilla she's a great live singer, if you check out her blog video that mentions this performance she said she'd had no sleep and admits to not performing it well. people are way too hard on vocalists, it is a bloody tricky instrument to be perfect with all the time.

I love that she seems to be improvising her piano playing every single time she plays a song live, so every performance is different.

Yeah, she sounds really nervous at first. I think she puts a lot of pressure on herself at things like this. She probably feels like she's representing her new album with the song, and its the 1st time she played it live ever.
