lyrics

My eyes have been closed since spring
And they’ll stay shut until it’s winter again
Unwelcome light still gets in
Through my own paper eyelids

I lost my mind in the white of the sun
Undid everything I didn’t need undone
Left filling up the holes in my thoughts
Made by the heat and my own sense of loss

Dizzy, dancing noose
The light played tricks
Turned yellow sun to blues
And I’m sunsick

Unforgiving, exposed without grace
Blinded by the glare in your face
Reduce me to what you are shown
Words echoing inside breath and bone

Dizzy, dancing noose
The light played tricks
Turned yellow sun to blues
And I’m sunsick

I let the garden die
Nothing grows in ground this dry
Maybe I’ll cut my hair
Give the back of my neck some air

Dizzy, dancing noose
The light played tricks
Turned yellow sun to blues
And I’m sunsick
I’m sunsick

My eyes have been closed since spring
And they’ll stay shut until it’s winter again

I’m so grateful this crossed my path. This album is so beautiful. All the clear technique and mastery and vision are kinda secondary to the fact that this album brought me calm and joy during one of the most difficult times in my life. Yeah, grateful. David McCullough

Her voice, the vulnerability within, and a glorious sound, not overproduced but natural. 'Tender Heart' gets me - resonates in a way that is sad and glorious simultaneously. Discordant guitars behind a clean acoustic and voice ballad. Love her voice, her lyrics. Great album. BikeBoy29
