lyrics

The sun set past the window, you walked out to the street
Your brown eyes lit the pavement on the day we came to meet
The moonlight came to take me, but you got to me first
We strolled on up the hillside, I held you by the church

The band they came out swinging at the dry eyes in the house
We arm-in-arm’d through the ballroom, they shook the windows out
We stepped on up the hallway, the keys fell to the floor
Your ring shone with the moonlight, you held me by the door

Brightly in the sunrise, buried in the bed
The light shone on your pale face, a dream swam through your head
Your hands they found my shoulders, your heart it found the rest
The dust did come unsettled, you danced inside my chest

I stepped out to the courtyard, coffee in my hand
The crowds took to the pavement, a noise I couldn’t stand
You came to me so sleepless and rested like a cat
The rain drummed at the window, do you remember that?

I turned around darkened corners, my head weighed down with lead
There’s no heaven in Las Vegas, there’s a hell above the bed
I walked along the bright streets and stepped on through the swill
The predators with their leaflets, their poisons, and their pills

No more will our hands lock, no more will we meet
Your shadow hangs before me on late-night Shepherd Street
The wine we didn’t open in the attic by the beam
casts a shadow through the window, just beyond our dreams

about

Teething Veils Washington, D.C.

"These songs—sepia-toned yet searching, eccentric yet melodically inclined—add up to something that feels like its own universe, sometimes wistful, sometimes the kind of menacing only achieved via a late-career Tom Waits death rattle." -Wash CP
