lyrics
The foil on your pills sounds like blistering chicken skin
And I’m forgetting the names of exes’ exes
Who know what height these snowflakes formed?
Tuck my trousers in socks to keep my pins warm
Now I’m lowly Faithful Johannes
But trying to use more words than Declan McManus
Like pangolin or circumloquacious, fluoxetine or abyssopelagic
The later pertains to the ocean’s depths
More explored in fiction than in fact
At the bottom of the Marianas Trench there’s only fine silt and film directors
But, I keep my pastey scared body in the shallows
Tiptoeing round weaver fish spines
Surf’s rolling in both ears full of brine
I got my Sunday TV through showroom windows
We recorded over the C90 of your wedding
But you haven’t noticed
Staying up late to find a melancholy melody
Is this heartfelt or a cruel self-parody
I’m insecure like my tenancy
Steadily altering my personality
In heresy to my teenage self
Stealthfully let my dreams decode my indefensible acts
Buy a pet rodent and call him Penelope
In nearly every sentence there’s sub-conscious synecdoche
Cry listening to Yo La Tengo in traffic
Blame Ira Kaplan, there’s no need to panic
Who know what makes these teardrops form?
Maybe atmospheric pressure, it’s building to a storm
Like on that trip back from Eaton Hall
I was small and certain it was the end of the world
Sky darkened further by the tinted glass
Vice grip on the car door
Praying to a girl in my class
I got my Sunday TV through showroom windows
We recorded over the C90 of your wedding
But you haven’t noticed
Pangolin or circumloquacious, fluoxetine or abyssopelagic
At the bottom of the Marianas Trench there’s only fine silt and film directors

Upon first listen, the voice reminds me of Julia Holter (who I love!), but the arrangements are more organic. When the final track bowed out with a whisper, I was sad it was over. Lovely work. Soloman Tump
