lyrics

[Air Traffic Controller:]
Delta 7422, you're s'posed to be on Mike.

[Cruel Bird:]
Yes, sir, we're going out there right now.

[Air Traffic Controller:]
Looks like you joined Lima.

[Cruel Bird:]
Okay, you know what? We'll taxi up there any way we want, unless you tell us to. I don't like your attitude.

[Air Traffic Controller:]
I don't have an attitude, sir. I'm just saying it looks like you joined Lima instead of Mike. I'm just trying to correct you, before you, you stay on Lima.

[Cruel Bird:]
Okay, 'cause my God, there's another plane out there, like six miles away. Your attitude is really something, sir. We're out here on Mike. Good morning.

[Air Traffic Controller:]
Good morning. There was no attitude. I was just trying to correct you. That's my job to correct you if you mess up, and I make sure everybody does what I asked them to do for certain reasons.

[Cruel Bird:]
Alright. I make a mistake every two to three minutes but my attitude is not like yours. We're out on Mike. And you didn't tell us how to get there, so next time you can try doing that.

[Copilot:]
Settle down, Captain happy.

[Air Traffic Controller:]
Delta 1334...


[Cruel Bird:]
I, the Pious Pilot, have come to end this charade
I act as messenger of Gods
Things are going to change around here, if I have my way
Keeping technology at bay

You know that knowledge is the domain of the Divine
We must not shoot past the limit of things
I keep my feathery watch around the mountaintops
Guarding the world from sure destruction

In ancient planes I fly, relics from a bygone time
With my beaked associates we form an order
The Fish was wise, but not enough
Now I’m here, I’ll show you who’s tough


[Villager:]
Cruel Bird
Relentless
Cruel Bird
Relentless

Traces tracks across the stars
To find you
He’s a Surly Pilot

Cruel Bird
Relentless
Cruel Bird
Relentless

Hatred, malice, in his eyes
Sharp beak
Cruel Bird

Blank expression
Gods behind the curtain, controlling the
Cruel Bird
Cruel Bird

Electronic wires, thinner than mortal coil
Relentless, destructive, violent
Cruel, Cruel Bird

Execute the Master’s commands
You dumb, stupid, idiot Bird
Fight the Relentless Swordsman
Evict the Evil Mouse

Cruel Bird
Relentless
Cruel Bird
Relentless

about

Languisher Berkeley, California

Lo-fi rock and metal eco-myths. Languish in wait for climate apocalypse.

Emerging from the languid depths of Berkeley, California's DIY scene, Languisher rub the edges of bedroom pop. They mix earnest vocals with a shifty amalgam of rock, black metal, shoegaze, and drone.

Languish.
