lyrics

In the night while the wolves sleep
I felt it standing in the doorway watching me
and I thought about the Wolands and Behemoths
wanting to stay with me, enact my darkest dreams.

They must've heard via my thoughts or something
that I'm never feeling right when I can't see where I'm going.
Well the night is at my door now, laughing where I lay
it's coming, it's coming, it's coming, coming to take me.

In the night while the wolves sleep
I felt it standing in the doorway watching me
and I'd like to walk slow with patience but the,
the urge to make a dash picks up my feet real fast.

I must've learnt from my mum or something
that a room without a light sends the creatures running.
Well the night is at my door now, laughing where I lay
it's coming, it's coming, it's coming, coming to take me.

about

Bayou Melbourne, Australia

Melbourne band Bayou weave together cascading guitar lines, noirish vocals, eerie female harmonies and propulsive drumming to create a sound that's haunting, hypnotic and dirty all at the same time – a fuzzed-out missive from some enticing underworld.
