No candlelight still burning
The dark it flowers in my room
The dogs woke me up
And I hummed a song that I’ve had in my head
Before I moved
Then the bed
It leaves me too
The treeline dressed in shadows
A thousand different kinds of blue
Your hair in the sink
The back door flung wide open to the night
And all its birds
They just want
To be heard
Summers lying there in the back of the truck
Planets blossoming into red above
Velouria, Velouria, on the radio
We’re older now, and it’s colder now, and I miss you so
Sleepwalker catches in the corner of my eye
Smile glinting at me brighter than the silver light
Hand stretching out for you to guide
Pulling out all that’s still inside me
Tethered, connected to,
I’m tied
Can we untie in time?
Soften my footsteps as I near the water’s edge
Pull back the branches and I peer within the hedge
Arms stretching out for you to reach me
Pulling me deep into your mystery
Tethered, connected to,
I’m tied
Can we untie in time?
Looking back to you
And I see your smile
Can I untie this time?
I’ve got a great imagination
Overworked in desperation
I wanna know what you’re thinking
I wanna know
But your eyes are not a window
I keep gazing into them, though
I wanna know
Maybe I don’t
Are your signals mixed or my head twisted?
You stared back at me
You thought I missed it, but I didn’t
I didn’t
I put myself in this position
Cause I could live on just the wishing
You gotta know
Somehow you don’t
Not sure what is my expectation
This problem of my own creation
I don’t know what I’m thinking
I don’t know
Are your signals mixed or my head twisted?
You stared back at me
You thought I missed it, but I didn’t
I didn’t
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2023
On their latest LP, the Austin group peel away the synth and distortion to highlight the jangly melodies at the core of their songs. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 9, 2022
