about

Black City Lights were a synth pop duo from Wellington, New Zealand that released several EPs via Stars & Letters before moving on to Cascine. Sadly the group went their separate ways this year, but not before they reworked Empathy Test's Throwing Stones. This minimal, ephemeral remix demonstrates everything that was great about BCL. We're looking forward to hearing whatever producer Calum Robb puts his hand to next!

lyrics

Flicking through yesterday’s news
Slipping my neck into the noose again
Well it fits so well.
Doesn’t know where her loyalties lie -
Then again neither do I.
Going out getting drunk on gin
Waking up in her arms but then I
Never knew it would be so hard
Never knew I would be a part of this
Bitterness.

I try to fall awake but I still sleep
Wait for a week but I am weak
And resolutions fail
And once again I’m throwing stones
At your window.
Throwing stones
At your window.

Stand in the payphone count to ten
But you won’t call me back again.
Sends a little shiver right through me
When I hear you running down to me.
But I know you’ll only turn away
‘Cause you’ve got nothing left to say to me
Well; hear me out.

I try to fall awake but I still sleep
Wait for a week but I am weak.
And resolutions fail
And once again I’m throwing stones
At your window.
Throwing stones
At your window.
Throwing stones
At your window.
Throwing Stones
At your window.
