lyrics
I've been in the forest, I've been here thirty days
and you've taken all the time and trouble right out of my way.
I've been in the scenic, feeling time obsessed
Oh the peachiness of vision is a technicolor test
I've been highly guarded, taking dryness home
harnessing the hover and the humming of the drone
All that is the skylark, filling in the map
Rescuing the souls that get caught up in nature traps
You touched my sole under the water
And you throw my flow into the air
And you fleet and go
Cause you have taken all my gold.
There’s a female wisdom, written in the land
Doesn't show, empowers though, she takes you by the hand
It is like a madness, pulling blood and stones
Sirens of the lake; they pull and make the water glow
I've been in the water, but for forty days
and its taken her to thinking she must live in this new way
I've been in the shadows, I have been so shy
Lying in the gutters, moving in the muddy mind
You touched my sole under the water
And you throw my flow into the air
And you fleet and go
Cause you have taken all my gold,
Yes you have taken
And you touched my sole under the water
and you throw my flow into the air..
The sun is black, chalk is white
and I might just to be a little bit but lonely in the night
It is like a tonic, when there’s nothing left,
My ribs are missing cage but I still have stones on my chest
Throw away- you have flaws, you've been forced to the forest
And today, you have followed, you've fallen in solace.
You touched my sole under the water
And you throw my flow into the air
You fleet and go and you have taken all my gold from me,
Yes you have taken
And you touched my sole under the water
and you throw my flow into the air
And you fleet and go and you have taken all my gold
You have taken all my gold
You have taken all my gold..
I've been in the forest, I've been here fifty days.
And you've taken all the trouble now, we're finally okay
I've been in the scenic, feeling somehow blessed
oh the peachiness of vision was a technicolor test.
I've been out that water, but for one whole day
Hands are old, legs are webbed, wreaking of decay
Finally we’re falling, into a made nest
Gold you stole, in our hole, saved in treasure chest.

Venture to the underside of the ancient moon where natural disaster and debris flow through the golden forest, and the
underbelly of womankind exists. The trials and tribulations of failed witches find resolution in knowing that everything is all part of an ancient natural pact- an automany. A pact which once began and will never cease to exist. A mother gives birth to a child. Hail, to the moon!...more
Burbling beneath the hazy beauty of the debut solo record from Lush co-founder Emma Anderson is razor-sharp wit and a heart full of rage. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 5, 2023
