Full album will be out soon

lyrics

When cicadas come
it begins to hum.
I see holes in the ground
Punctured sun-stricken brown
While they waited in wake
Of a hotter day

Like ladies of the sea
Drink saltwater and speed
Because they don't do anything anymore.

Then that sky goes magenta
Before a darkness that keeps you
Awake in a blue dawn.
Blooms flowers in my garden.
You're a sweet thing from Athens--
Honeysuckle molasses--
But that world you wanted
Can't wait here and hold you
No more.

I will let olive branches grow between my legs
And eat the doves that fly my way.
Holy night,
Grace the treetops.

Oh holy night,
Give me a reason to fight.
I plant seeds and watch them die.
All I know how to do is kill flies.
