at the meeting place of
folk, classical piano, intricate guitar and poetry
lyrical, emotive, anthemic and improvisational,
spiritual, sensual, personal and philosophical
these are songs about
desire, death and memory,
love, loss and time
ecstasy, mystery and hope
for fans of Leonard Cohen, Lewis Capaldi and Lao Tze,
Jeff Buckley, Ben Howard and Bon Iver,
Chopin, Kae Tempest and Keith Jarrett
find me on
all those threads and fastening, spools of time / take me back round / Revealings, Exodus, Innocence, Genesis - how?/ a timepiece unwound
and beneath it all, I see the skin of the water, so still / I will
remember this life, I will / when I have melted back into the rain / without a name
and now the space between us, / who loaned me my freedom / is knocking at the window / demanding that I pay them
when she's lying next to me, nothing but memory/she can be anything I want her to be / perfectly absent, and karmically pure / her hollow glass body cries 'give me some more'
count the stars, and don't forget / the light that hasn't got here yet / nothing needs to be explained/ not the flower, not the flame
her lips like wine, sour and red / she slipped from the vine, and onto my tongue / yearning for more of this, whispering promises / willing and hopeless, and hopelessly young
if you never try you never know / and if you never break you never grow / and if you never cry, you never love / that's what makes you good enough
all that we are is a few accidents in the dark / how can that be? / what are the odds you and are just parts / of a soulless machine?
