  • Who

    Some years ago a friend point offer me a CD of Holly Miranda. But only last week it hit me! WOW! The Magician’s Private Library is absolutely beautiful, filled with pearls and rubies. Probably the most obvious track is Slow Burn Treason but the full album has so many other great tracks and I can loop it, over and over again. Ms.Miranda, respect!

    Holly Miranda – Slow Burn Treason

    Wake up and you’re next to nothing
    But the weight of the world is on your side
    Most days you don’t even notice
    But that’s a lie

    All you want is her eyes on you
    All you need is one hand deep inside
    Outside the wind she’s screaming
    The windows shake and you cry

    But who’s gonna feel you
    And who’s gonna need you

    And in between there’s always someone
    They don’t get you but you reach and smile
    And maybe this slow burn treason
    Is better than the crash of a quick rise

    So brave the cold and close your mouth
    I’ll bite your tongue if you’ll bite mine
    Yeah lay your head on my legs babe
    Everything is fine except the time

    But who’s gonna feel you
    And who’s gonna need you
    Who’s gonna feel you
    Who’s gonna need you
    Who’s gonna want you
    Who’s gonna hold you
    Who’s gonna love you
    Who’s gonna tease you
    Who

    Wake up and you’re next to nothing
    But the weight of the world is on your side
    And most days you don’t even notice
    But that’s a lie

  • Dark Lullaby

    This beautiful dark lullaby has been spinning inside my head all week.

    Holly Miranda – Everytime I Go To Sleep

    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    And there’s no light for me

    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    Every time I go to sleep I kick and scream and dream a little bit
    Violently awakening to what’s real is really bullshit
    And there’s no time waiting

    All this space, we stretch to bend to pull
    To keep our face on the other side of the world
    And there’s no going back
    And there’s only change
    Uh huh

    All my life has been on the edge of falling down
    One cool night, they’re gonna put my heart in the ground
    And there’s no going back
    And there’s only change
    Uh huh
