Dearest Patrons,
Welcome to Autumn.
It is officially that little bit colder, darker and I’m feeling it.

I’m absolutely dreading the return of my arch nemesis: The Cold. I’m making plans to move somewhere warmer… but until then, I must continue on, wearing big jumpers and avoiding the outside as much as possible.
That’s good news for you guys cos it means more music on Patreon!
This month is an electronic mash-up between us and Vienna Ditto/The May. We started it near the beginning of lockdown and have been bouncing files backwards and forwards ever since.

The concept is based around the decay of society, morals, ethics and a general feeling that humankind is descending into its final stages on the planet. Cheery stuff as ever. Anyone left behind to witness the end of the world will be a ‘ruin’, hence the title.
As you’ll hear, the track descends into chaos at the end, a beautiful cacophony of synths, noises, guitar and strings. It’s fucking weird.
I do love an apocalypse song. Hope you do too.
LYRICS:
Step into the ruins
Where spiders weave their threads
We can’t wake the living
Or suffocate the dead
If you believe in this
Spinning of the truth
Words become the knowledge
Do you dare to
The crawling through
In spite of you
I guess that’s just what neglect will do
The sky is my father
The sea is my son
Our ship has been sinking
Since 9, 31
These currents are pulling
Cracks upon the shell
Keep the fires consuming
Poison in our well
We are ruins
And you’ll be fine
And you’ll get through
I guess that’s what privilege will do
And it belongs to you
Step into this ice house
Kiss the lips of glass
Drown us in the melting
voices of all thing that pass
Keep us in denial
Spite the ones who stray
We will ruin anything that gets in father’s way
We are ruins
And it belongs to you
I guess that’s what privilege will do
And it belongs to you
I guess that’s what privilege will do

Thank you as always for your support. See you all at the next livestream!
Love & Feathers,
Birdeatsbaby & Vienna Ditto
