About This Track

'Storm' by Björk is an alternative track from 'Drawing Restraint 9' (2005). The lyrics speak in anatomical and architectural metaphors, with a recurring idea of a vessel and host, set against an aquatic, holographic vision. Over images of a warm, viscous body cooling into a “still molten core”, the song frames transformation as something both curing and skinning over, then holds the resulting skin-seascape suspended. It is the language of systems and parts becoming a whole, rendered with a cool, marine atmosphere.

"Storm" is a track by Björk, from the album Drawing Restraint 9, released 24th July 2005. The track is 5:32 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about Björk.

Lyrics

Storm

Vessel, host, occidental guests
Figure and field, both, carrier, carried
Holographic paradigm
The whole in every part
Warm, viscous body, cooling
In marine air embrace
Curing, skinning over
A still molten core
Vessel, host, occidental guests
Skin seascape in suspension
Holographic entry point
Each part reflects the whole
Skin slit, consensual knife
She cuts his figure, he flenses her field
External resistance freeing
Internal relation emerging
Vessel, host, occidental guests
To pattern, comes blood, giving form
Holographic condition
The whole in every part
Warm blood, terrestrial guests
Take to the southern sea, breathing
Antarctic host and vessel, proud
Cetacean guests returning
