lyrics

these thin white walls don't conceal much
i lay in bed
with my ears covered
try to pretend
the sun's not shining
echoes of birds and
words remind me

i like the comfort of being alone
what is everyone fighting for
claws on glass ceilings they want more
I never left my mother's womb

Lift my head up
and pull the blinds back
see a man dead
beneath the swing set
who do i call
to find his family
and see his body
layed to rest they'd like that

i like the comfort of being alone
what is everyone fighting for
claws on glass ceilings they want more
I never left my mothers womb

Haunting and yet ever-familiar. It takes me to quiet, inner place that I've known for a long time. Every track is special. aconitum vulparia

Direct, gauzy, vibrant and pissed-off. Kris Esfandiari effortlessly merges an original twist on grungy sounds with tight songwriting that sticks in your head. Jierva
