Smile 01:36
Don’t you curl up inside little girl I see no reason to hide Don’t you try to penetrate me With your little knives I just want to see you smile A little smile before we die Don’t you pull your plaster off Your leg tonight I might not be able to Put it aside
2.
Geyser 01:52
Dear faithful geyser Dear faithful geyser Love, love leaves the one who cheats on his wife Dear faithful geyser Dear faithful geyser The child, child screams when you’re fighting Tears its lungs apart Dear faithful geyser Dear faithful geyser Let me go into the snow Unleash me

Uh Huh 03:26
I look myself in the mirror A Shadow emerges from behind A chill up my spine A tongue tickles me cheek Is it you is it Someone I left behind Is it you is it Someone I left behind I hurry into the bedroom Is it the horror of the movie? With the camera eye With the camera eye I saw your shadow in the mirror I beg you to understand It hurts too much to look at you Your garden, your children, your new man

Romantic 01:39
15 seconds in a swimming pool No heart attack I’m so happy to be with you I think you could be happy too It’s just a matter of getting there To focus in the night We should be alone out there waiting tables in the neon light
6.
I can feel your love, I can feel your love inside of me I have nervous ticks hanging over my lips but I smile inside When you’re talking to me, talking to me I feel good Lightning strikes my skull and I crack like an egg A bird appears, hello, hello, hello, hello
7.
Bloodstained eyes Its all a disguise The discomfort in my stomach All thoughts aside I feel blessed by the beautiful diamond eyes
8.
The Jacket 01:42
All those mountains I’m letting go Of the jacket that keeps me from getting cold Your voice so close to my ear I hear your screaming in the dark It was a bad idea To let you go Sometimes I hear your voice It stabs me in my heart Memories in the dark
9.
Your burning spear Is crossing my throat A weird moment of joy You came to see the clouds Made from the cigarettes A burning kingdom Burning kingdom History is a whore Burnt all the witches Raising The Holy Flag The dusty fields roar Kill the animals Make them suffer A heart attack You might deserve that Burning kingdom Burning kingdom Hear your people cry Their silence makes you deaf Hear my demand I’m not asking much Feel the suffering of the few Who gave their lives For the guilty Burning kingdom Burning kingdom Give us piece Raise him like a flag Let us see him As he sees us We won’t hear talk of forgiveness It not good enough In a burning kingdom Burning kingdom Burning Kingdom

Sunshine 01:38
She’s so sweet to me So sweet to me I want to treat her well I want to treat her well Enjoy the sunshine On our day off The wind blew off my hat It went into the ocean It’s too cold for a swim It’s too cold for a swim But I want it back I want it back I want it back

"Fans of earlier Jacob Faurholt albums might be more than just a little estranged by Crystal Shipsss, but anyone who likes his music daring and unconventional will love the unpredictable indie lo-fi psychedelia weirdness of Yay!" 10/10 -disagreement.net

"Yay sports a disarming falsetto throughout from Faurholt and arrangements that emphasize melody and noise in equal measure." -popheadwound.com

"Jacob Faurholt makes lo-fi psych weirdness under the
name Crystal Shipsss. I dig it, but I wouldn’t buy acid
from him." -goldsoundzblog.com?p=3515

- Faurholt has so far released four albums in his own
name and an EP under the moniker Why Write?
- Faurholt is from the small town Aarhus in Denmark, but now lives in Berlin.
- Faurholt has over the years played a long line of concerts. He has shared the stage with names such as The Black Heart Procession, CocoRosie, Efterklang, and Grizzly Bear.
