do you still go dancing?

I want to feel my legs unbuckle
Feel my heart expand when you hold it in your hand
Wash away the pain that gives me trouble
And give me double
Do you still go dancing?
I'll take you
You want to see the waves come crashing
And fear your older years as they echo in your ears
Scratch away the skin, now you're scratching
A crime of passion
Do you still go dancing?
I'll take you
We'll take the morning off, it's worth a shot
Life is shorter now than we ever thought
I'll wait up for you
(lyric by J. Porter)

other side

Show me all the meaning
More than seeing how it burns
Tell me all the reasons
Give me treasons of your mind
I’ll feel it when I’m comin down
Your shadow passes through my sound
I know you’ll always hang around
Bring me to the place that I’ve never found
Peace now, no more dreading
No regretting where you’ve gone
Feel now all dark matter
Turning faster into life
It never seems to work out right
Every time I try to say goodbye
I’m never burnin out that light
Til I find myself on the other side
(lyric by H. Porter)

I wanted to disappear through this high heat, through this short sleep.
I tried to run away from this retreat. This is about me.
I tried to make myself clear. I wanted to disappear.
I wanted to disappear so immediately, too permanently.
Up from this low country, these rotting teeth, these native feet, they're bleeding out of fear, making me disappear.
I thought I made myself clear. I wanted to disappear.
(lyric by J. Porter)

If I pack the car tonight
Let it be the last time I see you alive
I can't look into those dead eyes
And I don't want to try
We're not gonna fight this lie
You can keep what makes you burn inside
I'll go for the longest drive
Kill what comforts been on your mind
This isn't what you wanted
When you find you're out of time
For a life that's built on telling lies
If I pack the car tonight
I have regrets that I don't want to hide
This isn't what you wanted
(lyric by J. Porter)

Before the ink can dry
They carve the name into your eyes
Before first words are said
You go to sleep and wake up dead
You see your self in lies
You never look surprised
Morning comes too late
Pull yourself up by your fate
Dip your toes into the flood
And breathe the poison to your blood
Try to escape dead ends
Hang a knife above your head
Bend a knee to go free
And die a death that you believe
You see yourself in lies
You never look surprised
(lyric by J. Porter)

Brilliant Beast Minneapolis, Minnesota
Brilliant Beast was a fuzzy shoegaze band from Minneapolis. Led by sibling dual-vocalists Hannah (vocals, guitar) and Jordan Porter (vocals, guitar) and anchored by the rhythm section of Ronnie Lee (bass) and Eric Whalen (drums), they spit out jams ranging from short garage heavy snarls to clanging & cavernous dirges. It gets loud. ... more
