walking home from work i found you outside of out of the closet
you're trying on everybody else's clothes
when you get home i'm surprised to find you empty-handed
i pull out my drawers to find what i can take for granted
so…
i'm throwing matches at the table
trying to love the candle as it burns
mind over matter never made much sense
what a mess
you said you'd make curtains out of someone else's sheets
and we'll cover up the stains by dying indigo and beets
so when the neighbor's pass and we're fucking on the couch that you found
at least we can say that we tried to be distreet
so…
i'm throwing matches at the table
trying to love the candle as it burns
mind over matter never made much sense
i'm a mess
We played a show with Marika and the live thing is just as great as the record. "Music and Love" is a beautiful song about living in San Francisco as a young person and catchy as hell. Sarah Coolidge
All our albums have had Maryam's touch on them, whether mixing, co-producing, engineering, or all of the above! This debut album showcases her dazzling music chops in a swirl of sound. Sarah Coolidge
supported by 4 fans who also own “Everybody Else's Clothes”
I loved this song a lot without context. Then at one of Kristin's shows she explained the context of this album and it broke me (in a good way).
It is still very good but now it moves me much deeper than before. jjw
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2023
