about
Loon is Dunedin Alt Rock band IVY’s first release of 2025. This single provokes a compelling blend of distorted guitars and ethereal choruses, encapsulating the emotional turbulence of longing to escape one’s hometown. The song reveals the feeling of deep familiarity with one’s surroundings, leading to a desire for change and new life experience. The juxtaposition of gritty instrumentation with heavenly vocal layers symbolises the internal conflict between the comfort of the known and the allure of the unknown.
lyrics
See the shadow of your life against the window pane
It’s like you said- “there’s beauty in the fight but blood is always red
Can you feel it
The edge of the blade kiss the skin of my neck
Can you feel it
Feel the features of your face from your silhouette
The smell of drunken people and cigarettes
Rain Hits the ground that fills the earth like all the tears that fill my hurt and kiss my face.
But all in all is fine you’ve waisted nothing real only a matter of time
A friend of a friend of a friend is dead
You’re caught up in a Hollywood scandal while your making amends for a life that
you’ve never known
And all the friends that you’ve lost were flowers to the cold
Can you feel it
The edge of the blade kiss the skin of my neck
Can you feel it
Feel the features of your face from your silhouette
The sound of broken strings is the song of regret
Rain Hits the ground that fills the earth like all the tears that fill my hurt and kiss my face
