lyrics

Each part of the noise is distinct. Every whirring line and popping cable has it's own particular place. A specific location in space between the drop and the remote sky. Taut voices born by the wind sing about the fragile span to ice, and rock, and visitor alike. A constant description of structure and distance called out in mid air. Twisted steel winds up under unseen loads and explodes into spitting rounds of ill-disciplined volley fire. The pitch rises with the wind's punch, vibrations coincide, they stretch-shriek-howl, sub-divide and re-align. A harmony lasts a split second and dies. Touching the bridge shocks the body. Sound burns through gloves and boots and lodges in the spine to buzz with avery swaying step.
