Mizake The Mizan
Cocteau Twins · Lullabies To Violaine [2005]
Long dirt closely flow
Become
Grey water
Hoist and throw me down in the water
They follow
Hoist and throw me down the waterfall
So until the hour
May call cherie hey yeah
Honey
Grey water
Hoist and throw me down in the water
They throw
Pushes something misses in me
Grey water
Hoist and throw me down in the water
They throw
Pushes something misses in me
Saw a mermaid in the
Lagoon, 'cause little
Become
Grey water
Hoist and throw me down in the water
Drowning
Hoist and throw me down the waterfall
About Mizake The Mizan
Cocteau Twins' "Mizake The Mizan" stands as a haunting centerpiece on the reissued *Lullabies To Violaine*, exemplifying the group's signature ethereal sound. Released in 2005, this recording features the band's characteristic blend of whispered vocals, layered harmonies, and atmospheric instrumentation that defined their late-career work. The track reflects the duo's deep engagement with Japanese cultural aesthetics, a recurring theme in their discography that adds a layer of exoticism to their avant-garde pop style. As part of the *Lullabies To Violaine* collection, the song continues the narrative of introspective, dreamlike soundscapes that have made Cocteau Twins a pivotal force in alternative music history. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to evoke a sense of quiet melancholy and spiritual yearning, capturing the essence of their unique artistic vision without relying on traditional song structures.
