Falling upwards through clouds of glue.
Anamnesis crashing through.
Blurry photos all I've gained from my last domain.
Dream grips me and pulls me into global unparalleled new.
Metamorphic is my name.
Surrender this brain.
Blue morpho... Blue morpho... Blue morpho...
Falling upwards through clouds of glue.
Moonless night beckons me through.
Morpheus whispers my name.
Massages my brain.
Falling upwards through clouds of glue.
Split dry sky beckons me through.
A hand outstretched calls my name.
Time to wake again.
Blue morpho... Blue morpho... Blue morpho...
Time to wake again, Blue morpho.

Butterfly 3000 is a total masterpiece

[@BattleTuba]

These videos somehow get more and more removed from reality, yet continue to fit the songs perfectly

[@RattleheadIV]

If Jamie Wolfe directed a Yellow Submarine style movie with KGLW, it would be a dream come true.

[@jojoDUB]

OMG, yes! That Beatles animated movie is probably my favorite film of all time, would be amazing to see the Gizz Guys in a story like that!

I fucken love Radiohead and King Gizzard

[@michaelhird432]

It's also nearly the same as pyramid song, Radiohead literally (and with good reason) used the same harmonic idea 2 albums in a row. Also this song is in the same key as pyramid song which is pretty fun

[@markmayhem2173]

KGATLW are like the new generation's Radiohead. I'm a fan after this album especially

[@stupidpuma1]

I love how this album is reflexively described as "happy" but I pick up ominous vibes from a lot of songs and some of them get me pretty emotional in a sad way. Same with the new Murlocs. I love them both to bits though.

[@Huskinmatt]

DUALITY mate... ya can’t fully experience any thing without a point of reference... all things are interdependent in this way... background / foreground.... top/bottom... dark / light ... bliss / devastation. This band is one of the few I’ve seen to transmit these messages in often candid yet always poignant verses. Bravo to them and bravo to us.

[@toddalanp]

This song, in keeping with the rest of the album, is all about transition. A recurring theme with the band, really. Transition is rarely absent a degree of discomfort; the familiar is lost and new mysteries are gained. They nailed that vibe with the music, and Jamie's visuals ... man, they mixed up something special here. "Time to wake again."

[@HunterGreenMusic]

They lie a lot in interviews

[@GoogleUser-ms6hr]

I love the spooky vibe of this track especially in the second half, definitely very excited to see this art style used again in a different way for this song, maybe more like king krule's cellular video

[@coliosucc7468]

Jamie wolf does some great art!

[@myaimistrashgaming5175]

The steel drum(i think?), descend, with the whispers in the background, is like my fav part of this song. (Right at the end)

[@ZuShin]

"Once upon a time, I, Zhuangzi, dreamt I was a butterfly, fluttering hither and thither, to all intents and purposes a butterfly. I was conscious only of my happiness as a butterfly, unaware that I was Zhuangzi. Soon I awakened, and there I was, veritably myself again. Now I do not know whether I was then a human, dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly, dreaming I am a human. Between a human and a butterfly there is necessarily a distinction. The transition is called the transformation of material things." 🦋💙

This song and interior people are the highlight of the album for me. The transition between the two is just sublime! Love the Radioheadesque syncopation... The video is outstanding too

[@gloriacapulong3657]

Agreed -- this song actually reminded me a lot of Pyramid song, especially because both songs use the same 3 chords and have interesting syncopation !

[@LuisTheG1]

I think the transition from Shanghai to Dreams is even more incredible. King Gizzard is truly something else. Everyone seems to have different favorites! 🤩

[@coolname3984]

Have you ever tried listening to music quietly enough so it doesn't prevent you from falling asleep and keep on listening to the music while slowly drifting into a spectacular dream which evolves from your associations to the particular song that is right on the edge between being awake and sleeping?
