lyrics

Your father is a loving man,
he wraps his arms around me.
And I contain the light your mother shined
On days before she broke free.

No, he won't go, he won't go away!
He will peek through my top every day.
And he'll say:

'There she is.'
Ringing bells on her thin haired arms,
'There she is.'
Making dull satisfaction from sorrow.

Your father is a curious man,
He confounds his own shadow.
And when he flew away to Maui,
He forgot to take me in his travels.

So one day, you will find me.
You'll have woke, arms around me.
In my clear plastic wall, you will see
A faint torso.

Over time, loss will form her.
You'll be tempted to grasp her.
She'll have different sighs and regrets,
But you'll still say:

'There she is.'

Maudlin Maladies

My favorite record of 2012 was a tape that combined Maudlin Maladies two releases, both here on Bandcamp. Ego-less, dreamy, brilliant melodies. April Wilson

Tiny Hazard

This new ensemble combines the best of 100 different musical worlds. Alena Spanger, the lead, has a commanding and magnetic presence in her voice. These musicians sound like they could play anything. April Wilson

A Crow Looked At Me

Such a special album I struggle to think of what to say about it. At times I'm afraid or put off even listening to it and sometimes its the most comforting thing in the world. I got this from a vinyl code and I only listened to that physical copy of it the morning after the night my dog died. The first time I ever lost someone that meant the world to me and it was the first time I didn't cry to it. This album is beautiful and if youre reading this, you are loved memon_dayz
