i got out of bed
and i tried to clear my head
as soon as things got clearer
i saw your face in the mirror
you were looking back at me
and your hands were free
at last with no bounds
in the afterlife you found
and i started to feel lonely like i never had before
you said that you must move on
and you wanted to say goodbye
but i forgot to ask you
just how did you die
yes, i had a conversation
with your apparition
before you disappeared
before you disappeared
and i started to feel lonely like i never had before
i saw your face in the paper
right next to the job listings
and all the advertisements
& they said that you’d gone missing
and i started to feel lonely like i never had before

sirens - violins
silence in yr vibrant limbs
yr vibrant limbs
yr vibrant limbs
one side wins through violence
a path perturbed among the whirlwind
the whirlwind
the whirlwind
life begins through consequence
or did it already end?
the tide rolls in - in an undulance
but stasis stays within yr silent hymns
yr silent hymns
yr silent hymns
doo doo doo
mortal sin is ambivalence
a spiral spinning in the void of men
the void of men
the void of men
sirens - violins
thrushed around the corner in an ambulance
an ambulance
an ambulance
doo doo doo

my friend, let’s go somewhere again
to forget the pains of where we’ve been
in the birds up above & the bars down below
& the music surrounds us all
& say your love don't come to your call
i'll meet you by the berlin wall
the truth is out no doubt, no salty tears
can spoil the sweetness of a fresh eclaire
there’s no aching pain that the
joy of aching feet cannot outweigh
& say your lover don’t accept
i'll meet you on the spanish steps
say you’re scared of growin’ long in the tooth
with none to share domestic points of view
but a body’s full of removable parts
so what’s to a heart? what’s to a heart?
& say your love has gone amiss
i'll meet you neath the london bridge

it's the kind of dream that wakes you while you’re still in it
the kind of heavy eyelids that refuse to let the water quit
the kind that finds you wishing
the feeling of the one you’re missing weren’t self-imposed
& sometimes i wish we were different people
propelled by beliefs different
to what's been pulling us apart
before he passed he shared a lot of things with you
& he lived a life so true that he died of it too
& even such an action, which itself’s commitment to inaction
has left us something new
on paper i've got the upper hand
but fires burn of different colours
life lives not in courts rooms
or monochrome conclusions
its faults & its forgiveness
lie in its endless confusion for what’s true
i hear about you from friends we used to share
i know you'd rather move away than
find any unlovely way to live
so the demons you live with bring
you both woe & bliss
so it felt like it was love or at least a semblance of
some mutual admiration & understanding of our faults
that transcends the shit of everyday
it glowed so bright i couldn't help but look away
to swim without a shell to embrace
the softness of yours & others too
of life & death & in between, & heartbreaks & relationships
that weren't made to be mended, but never can be ended
i love you too much to love you
& at least now you can know that i do

this life gives me so much to behold
i can't understand the pain of getting older
but now i know there is joy
the sun lays squares of light
sprawled across the floor like children
guarded by dancing schools of dust
what a furious romance this is!
i'm so lucky
to have met you
in this exact
combination
of time & place
as this exact
version of you
as this exact
version of me

Welcome To The Garden

Emily Steinwall's voice pirouettes through this stunning masterpiece of an album, giving form to primordial-sounding epics (Welcome to the Garden) and heartfelt acoustic ballads (Courage, My Love) with ease. Delightfully cogent and still surprising at every turn, this is the work of a truly virtuosic musician.
