Serving as the first single from Kristin Kontrol’s debut solo album, the title track shows Kristin Welchez leaning towards a new, 80’s synthpop sound.
[Verse 1]
I've been living so long with the ghost of our love
She's as oppressive as she is inspired
We are ships in the night
We are hooks' baited by
We are etchings of all that's transpired
[Pre-Chorus]
Do I still possess you?
Forever and ever, Amen
Under the sheets I hide
A tie up the mess inside
Between the whites of my eyes
I hold the highs and lows of your life
[Chorus]
Should we excommunicate our love
Or should we wait?
Should we excommunicate our love
Or should we wait?
[Post-Chorus]
Forever and ever, Amen
Just when I think that you have had enough
Your embrace melts the ice from my tongue
What do we call this? What's another name?
For surrender we're coming undone
[Pre-Chorus]
Do I still possess you?
Forever and ever, Amen
Under the sheets I hide
A tie up the mess inside
Between the whites of my eyes
I hold the highs and lows of your life
[Chorus]
Should we excommunicate our love
Or should we wait?
Should we excommunicate our love
Or should we wait?
[Post-Chorus]
Forever and ever, Amen
[Bridge]
(Do I still possess you?)
(Do I still possess you?)
And I'm so tired, so tired
So tired, so tired
Yes I'm so tired, so tired
Of this life
[Chorus]
Should we excommunicate our love
Or should we wait?
Should we excommunicate our love
Or should we wait?
Forever and ever, amen
X-Communicate was written by Kristin Kontrol.
X-Communicate was produced by Kurt Feldman.
Kristin Kontrol released X-Communicate on Fri May 27 2016.
When recruiting my two new producers, Kurt Feldman, and Andrew Miller, this is the song I sent them a demo to reimagine.
They both came back with really strong, really different versions, and I knew we would make a great record together.
