Practise fake calling my dad,
So it will look like there's somebody tough
Waiting for me to walk in the door,
After the sun has gone down,
And I set on home
Up a street that's familiar to me,
Past that big group of figures
That force my gaze downwards
'Til I can't see past my feet.
Practise pretending I know what to do when I see it,
Practise pretending I understand what not to say.
Stupid girl,
Stupid girl.
Sometimes I call you instead,
And I'll pray that you've not gone to bed,
And I'll make sure you know where I am,
As I make my way home
Down the street all alone.
Practise pretending I know what to do when I see it,
Practise pretending I understand what not to say.
Stupid girl,
Stupid girl.
I don't wanna go out tonight,
I just wanna sleep right tonight.

A truly stunning album that mentally transports you to foggy early morning streets, the pavement wet from recent rains. Dreary, but in a comforting way. Like sitting next to a window during a rainstorm, listening to the drops hit the glass while remaining warm. Never fails to make me feel safe. Crow Yo
“Write The Soil Lighter” is full of beguilingly mysterious folk-adjacent music, shrouded in shadow and atmospherics. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 30, 2023
Voice that pierces and soothes like a butter thorn. Music slowly gliding over moonlit grass. Lyrics that depict and dissect a soul in such an intimate way that her soul becomes yours as yours becomes hers. muschiosauro
