I’m a burning house And the smoke that rises I see on both sides Of the wall… I’m a still house And the moon that rises I sleep on both sides Of the wall… Your house is blanketed By warm shadows Clouds are often thin In the night sky.. I’m a still house And the sun that rises I see on both sides Of the wall.. You’re right here And you don’t notice That you’re in the light Of my torches..

Blindness 02:31
He doesn’t know About the snow In his eyes He doesn’t know About the cold He’s blind He doesn’t know What it’s like So low Have you ever been So low? I don’t even know About the cold In my bones No vision, No color, I hear….the weather

Drift 03:13
Every year… Every year I lose myself In the belly of winter I lose myself In the belly of winter

Those Houses 03:50
It’s like being on vacation I’m alone watching the waves in one of those houses But I’m not alone, alone like lonely You just went to the store to pick something up And it’s just quiet for a bit.

Gardens 02:53
Gardens… Gardens grow.. Gardens, gardens grow… Many things connect to help a garden grow.

Voice, sweet, just like the sparrow Voice, sweet, just like the sparrow Voice, sweet… No you don’t, ever, ever notice No you don’t… No you don’t, ever…ever..ever notice Tomorrow.. Prissy ivory tower falling Darkness eaten by fire Voice sweet just like a sparrow I can’t imagine tomorrow (their lives) I can’t imagine their lives Out the castle wall…. The rage….ivory cage.. The rage….the tower gates... Ivory tower…falling... At least they try…. Good people, at least they try… Still like a lake of milk, tomorrow

credits

released October 18, 2015

Produced by J. Barbour
Additional mixing, editing, etc by Cher Von & Regan Layman

Recorded at the Haunted Music Room and various other spots from the winter of 2014 to the summer of 2015.

I'd like to thank Sarah Davis for her consistent encouragement, support, feedback, and love. I'd like to thank Alexia Serpentini for the use of her beautiful images which informed much of the music. I also owe a bit of thanks to Chris Snow, who gifted me the organ that graces these songs.

And of course, a huge debt of gratitude to all my collaborators: Mark Kramer, Collin Lloyd, Katy Hartman, Regan Layman, Jim Marlowe, Ben Traughber, Sarah Davis and Cher Von. This album wouldn't have happened without their creativity and patience.

Additional thanks to all my lovely friends, especially those that have helped with my many projects or offered useful advice.

This album was made with some assistance from the Oblique Productivity App, the Tarot, the literature of Alejandro Jodorowsky, and many hours of ASMR.
