Michelangelo

from The Trunk by olmo

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Impossible to box, this nine track body of work is an impressively unique record that will stay with you, long after you’ve finished listening to it.

    “My music is about creating a temporary dream space that people can escape into. It’s a safe place where complex issues are sweetened up and turned into these little ear worms.”
    Bearing an escape route from the trials of daily life, the world through Olmo’s music is much more palatable, even when he’s tackling the heaviest of issues.

lyrics

i don’t suppose you’d like to know the different tones of Michelangelo
or that Nietzche’s speeches might be pleasing to hear
there’s plenty of dudes to get me through lonely days in my room
but that still leaves me you to get through to
cause my own heart
is far from smart
i’ve never given it up to be torn apart

i must confess i’ve come across videos of some staple dance moves
i could swear that in the mirror they looked better than this
who would have thought that i’d be caught in a twist of my own
unable to write my life right

cause my busy mind
has wasted time
i’ve kept it always whole and always mine

yes i guess i digress in an attempt to distract us
to evade the shame and the blame you bring
stuffed the void with all the noise and avoided your eyes
what you never ask you’ll never know

but see through truths
they need no proof
you’re wondering whether it’s worth your youth

you said ‘hey, have a taste before knowing if it’s shit or chocolate
go swimming after dark when the shark or the seaweed might be stroking your feet
build your own dream home on the slope of a volcano
go on, go all in and fall in love

cause your whole heart
will never start
until it has been torn apart

no, your whole heart
will never start
until it has been torn apart’
