lyrics
Part I:
Christ was a hornet inside this head,
Stung to mention more than said,
Wrung around, common ground, hung sound, just layed down
Again and again,
Again and again
I'm glad you shrugged when I've been unsure,
Your punch is like a down comforter
Hibernate, gravitate, step, sway, guess away,
Again and again,
Again and again
Continue sleeping on a rented pillow,
Parent's home now vaguely an idea
Canned laugh, brass tacs, Pass the hat, I miss the past,
Again and again,
Again and again
Part II:
A father is a hard thing to compass,
Thunder is a quiet stretch to listen,
A mother is a wire sculpture,
A cog is a moving hill,
No siblings to pawn life off on to,
Only child's a Vermeer painting,
A cactus has perennial appeal,
A disciple is your mother's robe fit tightly,
Cousin is frustrated with the lord,
Cried in the airport's duty free store,
Grandparents are rocking chairs,
Perpetual motion machines rusting together alone,
When the breeze dies down I'll settle in,
Thought of it over and over again,
But family is a hard thing to gather,
So I'd rather sit and watch the leaves stir more

The first album I've heard in quite some time that accurately reflects the modern state of being. It's scary, it's beautiful, it's overwhelming, it's comforting, it's everything. New Balance
An album that upends my expectation for it with every new song. Wonderful songwriting matched with ornate production, this is an album the you learn more about with every listen. New Balance
The latest from Jessica Pratt retains the sense of mystery that characterized her previous albums, adding expansive arrangements. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 6, 2019
