With a steady hand.
Through scars and slings.
On gilded masts.
Awaiting your kind response...
No comfort.
Beyond the rapids.
Engulfed in mist.
Still revellous and.
Awaiting your kind response...
No comfort.
There's no comfort here.
O king of unfortunate epithets.
No solace in the written word.
No bended knee.
Damn devil and all of his kin.
No solace in the written word.
By land and sea.
Fool of all the world.
On gilded masts.
Awaiting your kind response...
No comfort.
There's no comfort here.
O king of unfortunate epithets.
No solace in the written word.
No bended knee.
Damn devil and all of his kin.
No solace in the written word.
No solace.

This language is so vague.
Stuck in the profane.
Spoken out of turn.
It winds up just like you said.
"It's always someone else's fault"
But yours.
This whole thing is purposefully vague.
I guess this something's better than nothing.
It winds up, winds up the same way.
I guess this something's better than nothing.
It's not like we couldn't ever learn.
I guess this something's better than nothing.
But it winds up just like you said.
"It's always someone else's fault"
But yours.

You're dedicated.
Or just dead in the water.
Here comes a clean shot.
Extant or extinct.
Look what you've started.
An abject failure now.
There goes the theory.
Extant or extinct.
An over-rated fiction.
And over-stated options.
Extant or extinct.

I could speak.
Ill-informed.
I could think it's nothing at all.
I could wait.
Patiently.
I could wish for something else.
I could speak.
Ill-advised.
I could think it's nothing at all.
I could wait.
Eternally.
I could wish for something else.
Close my eyes and shut it out.
Another glory passed.
Before forgetting.
If there's a choice in this.
I never made it.
I could think.
It's nothing.
And this is what we're left with.
Disappointing endings.

Repairs Auckland, New Zealand
Powerful, personal and political, REPAIRS are experts at playing with tension and release. Sprechgesang breaks into
screaming, rhythms curtly jolt while guitars soar overhead.
Martin Phillips (he/him), James Milne (he/him) and Nicola Edwards (she/her) have been making noise together since 2017 in various places across Aotearoa but especially in their home base of Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.
