about

The first recorded Twisted Ecstasy track; telling the story of a dark romance with hidden and frantic secrets.

lyrics

Over the room, we exchanged a gaze,
I felt no gloom but a misty haze,
you filled my mind with secrets I,
may like to hide until I die,

I want to live, a life with you,
We'll do the things that we want to do
And if you are to refuse,
I'll walk away, in Polished shoes,

It's getting late, it's dark at eight,
And by that time, all of our crimes will-
be known by, just you and I,
It was only her, and her mother-

So can I live my life with you,
A fireplace, cottages and a view,
And if you aren't to refuse,
we can walk together in polished shoes

Me and you, the estuary view,
By the sunset-we will forget our crimes, from older times,
so let me live this life with you,
we'll do the things that I want to do,
and if you are to refuse,
I'll walk away wearing crimson shoes...

The instruments are on point throughout this EP, some lyrics have some really good imagery and the cover itself looks awesome! Twisted Ecstasy

Three Mile Ditch
by The Wytches

Music for skeletons to groove to. One of my fave albums of the 20s. Playful, creepy, atmospheric. Great moments both heavy and soft-plus my fave urbex spot gets a song. Twisted Ecstasy
