Decimals & Detriment | Byrnish (Official Music Video)

Details

Description

“Decimals & Detriment” is a poetic, emotionally raw response to modern disconnection. My expression to the tech-fueled, late-stage capitalist blur that I, and many of us live in.

I’m Byrnish - an Australian indie/alternative/pop/hip-hop singer-songwriter, poet, and travelling remote Clinical Nurse.

🎥 Directed by Ken Kimura
🎧 Produced by Liam Colin at Sunrise Studios

LYRICS

In a room full of voices and a bustling tone
Solitude is kissed I feel alone

A sense of isolation in a crowded space
Another sordid stranger enters my space

We’ve been sold a sad lie
That another product will supply
That final fine desire
To fill the valley in my mind

A Backlit lullaby, whispered and nullified
Be kind, keep trying

What? You looking for a rewind?
Flash floods, receding tree lines
Foreign wars flourish in peace time
Marsupial caught in the jaws of a feral feline

Still another notification comes in to consume my soul
All I know is my greatest resource is my damn attention

-CHORUS-

Not a glance exchanged,
Just a goods a plenty
Swipe swipe nice, we trade time for pennies

I remembered my first kiss this evening
I forget it as fast as another vibration comes in

White light is glaring through the train’s scratched windows
Illuminating the faces of us trained tame commuters

I lament for their reflected pupils, please look at me
In their place faced down foreheads, not a smile to see

Still another notification comes in to consume my soul
All I know if my greatest resource is my damn attention

THE WORLD'S BOUGHT AND SOLD VIA DECIMALS AND DETRIMENT

-CHORUS-

Little nuclear fusion factory flying so high in the sky
Bring me light, bring me life, bring me night (Repeat x 4)
