[Videotheque] Puta Volcano - Black Box

Puta Volcano's latest album AMMA was released during the covid-19 lokcdown and as lots of other albums of the same period it probably didn't receive the attention that it deserves. So, in attempt to give it some more credit we present you the official video that the band created for the song Black Box.

At the bottom of this post you can find some 'after' photos of the place that the video-shooting took place. Lyrics of the song are available also at the bottom of this post.

𝗟𝘆𝗿𝗶𝗰𝘀

Nothing but another grain of sand

Even with a thousand lives I’d still

Wouldn’t know a thing

Burn matches in the dark

Blindly throw my wisdom net around

I so crave the precious exaltation

Just without the guilt that comes along

Give me please the liberation

Of not giving a shit

Somehow

I know

Touch the cosmos and you’ll burn

I’m sorry that your plan went wrong

Toughen up, you should’ve known

Some truths we just can’t take

As small as all before

Under dying stars

My delusions comfort me again

A billion billions hold

My hand and show the way

Helping me take another step

Βy now

I know

A snowflake in an avalanche

A billion helping hands will steer

Toughen up, stare down the void

No truth can stand our gaze

Oh when I’m gone

I only hope

I give someone

That extra step
