Lyrics:

Every hour that I drive, add on another hour
And down, it floats, the light
A faucet flowing under

It's another world, it's the otherworld
It's the air, stirred, honeyed waters
It's the neon lights, the sodium lights
Great saucers, pouring under

This is the sea of what should not be
This is the fog of sweet eternity

My queen in veils (Something called out on that)
She hails (Quiet night)
At one (Can you hear it?)
You see (Can you hear it?)
Jupiter, sing (Something called out through that)
And swell (silent light)
Envelop (Can you hear it?)
Me (Can you hear it?)

Every hour that I drive, add on another hour
And I'm swimming through the light
Through hazy waves broke under

It's another world, it's the other world
It's the storm, yet, lacking thunder
It's the neon lights, the sodium light
Great crowns of fire and umber

And this is the sea of sweet eternity (Four stories high, her spine, tall, stiff with spite)
A ship that won't sail, through pale, sight split from me (Copper alight, she sighs, she lifts her pipe)
Jupiter's haze, her days (And called me from the other side) (Down from her lips)
Envelop me (The drifts, of mist alight) (I heard it, I heard it)
My queen in veils, she hails (She called me from the other side) (King of the sky)
How sweet she sings (I heard it, I heard it) (Veiled high, she robs this night blind)

Artist commentary:

Helena Ruth:

in the witching hour, a vision, she overpowered me.
