lyrics

I cover all the mirrors in the house
So my heart will find it's way out.
While you sit in that old red Chevy and you cry.
But if I'm quiet, if I wait till the sun sets,
You'll come inside.
I can already hear the walls breathing in your exhausted sigh.

Sleep now, don't think.
Wake up later, puke in the kitchen sink.
Cold wash cloth, covers your face,
Fall asleep on the couch.
Mourn what you are.
Mourn the whole world and sleep until 9.
Start moving, still tired,
Carry the weight of what you are inside.
But take your coffee, unapologetically, sweet with cream.

I'll wake up in the morning after you're gone.
Stumble out into the world, into the bright new dawn.
And I'll take off running,
But I'll turn around before you get off of work.
I'll wait here always, I'll wait, even when it hurts.
I can already feel my bones breathing in your tired sigh.

This is Alyssa's first solo album. It's really beautiful! She is a quiet storm. I often find myself coming back to this album and the stories in it. I also suggest her 2016 seasonal split series! Garrett Walters

Devotionals

I am always in awe of the way Frances's lyrics tumble forward so naturally. This album is so thoughtfully put together. Often very minimalist, but always feeling full & present. It's under my skin. Garrett Walters
