lyrics

Don’t you fear me, can’t you see?
That you’re my easy prey
My snapping jaws and sharpened teeth
Ensure I get my way

Can’t you see you’re easy prey?
I’ll chase you blindly in the water
And snap my jaws to get my way
I am my father’s daughter

Yet I am shivering again
In the freezing ocean
Drowning dizzy with the bends
Of frightening emotions

Shivering inside the ocean
Terrified that I’ll be slaughtered
Drowning dizzy with emotions
I am my mothers daughter

I was wrong
Baby I’ve been like them too long
Now I know
That it takes honesty to grow

Following the lazy shoal
I’d be no one if I weren’t
Shimmering among the whole
Along the fickle current

I’d be no one if I weren’t
Drinking in the empty gospel
So I’ll obey the fickle current
I am its meek apostle

I was wrong
Baby I’ve been like them too long
Now I know
That it takes honesty to grow

I’ll come home
Baby I left you all alone
Wait for me
I will swim back from open sea

Goldfeather New York

Goldfeather is an experimental pop band based out of New York City. The whimsical brainchild of Sarah Goldfeather and Mike Tierney, Goldfeather’s music has been described as “a nightmare funhouse-mirror take on Carly Rae Jepson-style upbeat pop [that is] deeply disconcerting and outrageously fun” (National Sawdust Log) and “giddy, cute, vulnerable, and delightful” (I Care If You Listen). ... more
