Once & Future//Summer Bird (feat. Amber Shirah)

Описание: Summer Bird is now streaming on all platforms. This is the third single off of the full length album coming out this year. This song is almost completely autobiographical; though a bit out of order. It catalogs the beginning of a very close friendship and then its demise after a string of lies I threaded together suddenly unraveled. This is the oldest song on the album, written over 10 years ago, but the subject matter still haunts me and convicts me. I am sorry, and I am trying to, Lord willing, be better.

The lovely Amber Shirah sang harmonies on this song with me. Please look up her Dreamglow EP and listen to it over and over; though once you start you won't need any of my convincing.

Lyrics:
This is the moment when it breaks
When the bones begin to shake and cave
This is how the movement stops
And begins to spin the other way

Is my blood still on your street?
Do the ghosts still gather 'round you in your sleep?
And is the grace all spent from all the times I need it?
Does my memory breathe or suffocate easily?

It was dancing second floor
It was awkward placing fingers to open sores
Hope pulses soft against my shirt
Like a summer bird under winters skirt
And just like that it was, and we were.
