Crawl through the dark, your eyes lead to nowhere.
Lay your hands on my head, come and show me who you are.
----
In the grip of negative love.
Kill the light, negative love.
Feed the shame, negative love.
Come and show me who you are.
----
Fall to the floor, shake inner tremble.
I can't breathe when you're there, we're a thousand miles apart.
----
Self erase, negative love.
Killing time, negative love.
Feel the drain, negative love.
We’re a thousand miles apart.
----
Show me who you are, separate my soul.
Don’t release my heart, show me who you are.
----
Turn away from negative love.
Clean the stains, negative love.
Break the chains, negative love.
We’re a thousand miles apart.
----
See the stars are falling down.
As you tear my insides out.
It will never be enough in the negative of love.

Al Wilson and Jon Perry the rhythm section on Disappear EP formed SHUCK after initially working together to learn my material. They are fine musicians and SHUCK are AWESOME! Karl D'Silva
Chemical Flowers by Helm is one of my favourite records from last year, I provided Luke with some Saxophone playing for a few tracks on this, it's a really beautiful record. Karl D'Silva
Rian Treanor is a dear friend and collaborator of mine, we've known each other since we were kids, anyone that is interested in modern electronic music that destroys dance floors should CRANK THIS UP. Karl D'Silva
