If there's a mountain of thoughts each day to climb through
So cold and confusing I'd dress up for you
And cover the silence in buttons and dials
While the delicate leaves on your tree of denial
Disguise all the meanings behind your cellophane words
Wrapped in a blanket of hope I can't preserve
As the promises empty out of your lungs
And into the insides of our eardrums
And I'll stay
Well you know there's a line that's been drawn in the sand
And the tide's coming in though we've got nothing planned
And I'd run for my life if i just knew the way
But tomorrow just tells me to trust yesterday
And I'll stay
And all your cellophane words hide near the ceiling
The softest amber glow lights what you're feeling inside
If I'm not content then just take my hands
The carpet is worn but my heart understands
And the tangle that binds us could build a whole city
From the grass on the ground to the skyline so pretty
A hushed and low-lit EP from this Melbourne musician, where dreamlike melodies drift across a bed of tender guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
