about

First single taken from the second self-titled Summit of the big low album.

Dipping in and out of evocative residual memories (and maybe a few fictitious ones), Toby’s relaxed writing style utilises samples, atmospheric soundbeds and field recordings, setting scenes within which his lyrics explore themes that trouble or fascinate him. First single ’Dust’ has a clear anti-war message that he stresses is about "the importance of seeing past face value differences to find common ground, with the line 'if the dust don’t settle we’re all going to breathe it’ a reminder that no one is safe from the effects of war. As with the album cover, the single artwork utilises cigarette butts to portray human narratives, in this case a stand off of polar factions. - Red Sand PR

LYRICS

And if you look a little closer you will a see it’s just another big problem between you and me.
And you say you don’t care but let’s say you do.
I’ve been swallowed by the ground deep down echoing the times we’ve been rushing through.
And if the dust don’t settle we’re all going to breathe it.
Yeah, if the dust don’t settle we’re all going to breathe it.
So we take a little step back and soak up the view.
Because it’s another mind broken between me and you.
And you say you don’t care but let’s say you do.
I’ve been swallowed by the ground deep down echoing the times we’ve been rushing through.
And if the dust don’t settle we’re all going to breathe it.
Yeah, if the dust don’t settle we’re all going to breathe it.
Yeah we breath in what we breathe out.
Yeah we breath in what we breathe out.
