Welcome to XS City. Enter the ‘Cinema of Dreams’ – where your most insistent obsessions can be re-lived endlessly on repeat. Just press play on your private screen to begin.

*WARNING – May result in an inability to distinguish fantasy from reality.*

lyrics

You're gonna like it here
In hyperreality, I keep
Running in to your hologram
In the dark lounge of my daydreams

And time's cool lips
Kiss my neck
And loneliness follows me
Back to the suite of regret

Where you lie

In shimmering neon
You're made from a distant galaxy
Where they speak in tongues of lust
And the sky is splashed with fantasy

I search for our kiss
And press play on my private screen
You're by far the busiest star
In my Cinema of Dreams

I need you like the peach
Needs the deep and sweet
Wound of the teeth
Completely bloody and bound
To hopeless, complicit, delicious doom

And in this simulation
Your silver lips keep telling me
That I'll be forever haunted
And in my heart's hotel you'll sleep

In shimmering neon
You're made from a distant galaxy
Where they speak in tongues of lust
And the sky is splashed with fantasy

I search for our kiss
And press play on my private screen
You're by far the busiest star
In my Cinema of Dreams
