björk: lionsong

björk: lionsong taken from the new album vulnicura

the video was created in collaboration between björk, inez & vinoodh and visual effects production house framestore. framestore created two main effects in the stars and the glowing embers that surround björk, as well as enhancing the video’s other-worldliness by extending her legs to unnatural proportions. the exquisite coloring for the piece was done by tim masick of company 3, turning her into the exotic, red-toothed, bronze dancer.

vulnicura is available now on cd and vinyl: http://smarturl.it/bjork-vulnicura-amz

Bjork – Lion Song Lyrics

[Chorus]
Maybe he will come out of this
Maybe he won’t
Somehow, I’m not too bothered
Either way

[Verse 1]
Maybe he will come out of this loving me
Maybe he will come out of this
I smell declarations of solitude
Maybe he will come out of this
The end that comes after the war?
Lights in my house is wild lamp?
Doesn’t fit in this chill?

[Chorus]
Maybe he will come out of this loving me
Maybe he won’t
I’m not too in love, I’m not?
Maybe he will come out of this

[Verse 2]
Once it was simple, one feeling at a time
It reached its peak and transformed
These abstract complex feelings, I just don’t know
How to handle them? Should I throw oil
On one of these moods?
But which one?
The joy peak
Humor peak
Frustration peak
Anything peak
For clarity

[Chorus]
Maybe he will come out of this loving me
Maybe he won’t
I’m not too in love, I’m not?
Maybe he will come out of this
Maybe he will come out of this loving me
Maybe he won’t
Somehow, I’m not too bothered
Either way
Somehow, I’m not too bothered
Either way, I refuse, it’s a sign of maturing
To be stuck in complexity

[Bridge]
I demand our clarity
