I’m a creature of habit and my habit is this
Carving out my lonely lovely abyss
Your head your hands your heart
Show them to me sweetheart
And I’ll use them when the world ends again
The trees all look like animals grieving
To the sound of the earth sleeping and the sky breathing
Your bones your limbs your skin
Bring them to me pumpkin
And I’ll use them when I catch fire again
I’m gonna love you as the city turns to dust
I’ll be your man when you finally had enough
Give me just a little while and I will ease your worry
Give me just a little time with your little body
I wanna touch your face I wanna taste your sour
You smell like something between gasoline and a sunflower
Your legs your lips your liver
Give them to me little sister
And I’ll use them when you die again
Slowly now it’s coming on
Steady now and it won’t take long
My girl my girl my girl so sweet
I am decomposing here at your feet
I am not enough but I can try
I wanna take you here under Berlin sky
Come on wrap me up put me in your hair
Spit me out I don’t care
I’m gonna love you as the city turns to dust
I’ll be your man when you finally had enough
I’m gonna love you mama let me be your rider
I wanna crawl I wanna cry I wanna hide inside you
I’m gonna love you as the river turns to oil
And the dead claw their way back out of the soil
Give me just a little while and I will ease your worry
Give me just a little time
Give me just a little time
Give me just a little time with your little body
An almost anti-blues/anti-rock style that masters classic sounds while mocking the industry’s perceived seriousness. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 27, 2018
British folk musician Tom Nash built these delicate and moving songs around a broken harmonium, allowing its limitations to open up worlds. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 12, 2021
It's been a really long time since I've been that impressed by songwriting so creative and smart, plus the courage in displaying such vulnerability, and touched by the sheer beauty of the music, all at the same time. (I'm usually not a fan of digital only music purchases, but just had to make an exception here, after having the pleasure of experiencing a live gig by the wonderful Lucy, and buying the followup album on CD there - also heavily recommended!) mawit
