about

This album was written deep in the dark days of the Covid-19 quarantine. The four of us sent files back and forth, as we've been doing for years already. The lyrics for (almost) the entire album were excavated via erasure/blackout poetry from Pema Chödrön's book, "When Things Fall Apart - Heart Advice for Difficult Times."

lyrics

On the night
that swords turned into
flowers we saw white,
stained the color of love.

If we run
a hundred miles to the end,
the end of the continent,

we find the same pain with a new name.

When we talk,
a flock of words
careens around the room.
Take aim.

Blot it out.
Take a drink,
turn on the radio.
Try to escape.

We find the same pain with a new name.

Opening up, closing down.
Pull out the rug, take off the crown.

Opening up, closing down.
Pull out the rug and sail around
here in no-man’s land.
We’re in no-man’s land.

We’ll all die.
A brick is gonna fall out of the sky.
Tie up your loose ends.
