lyrics

We found two figures hanging in the stairs of my parent’s house
They’re like a mobile for a cradle made of concrete walls
We try to save them as we hold them up in our trembling arms
The hatchet’s buried ‘cause we cannot bear to cut them down

A man just shot me in a movie theater among all my friends
They tell me I’ll be fine so I follow them to a crowded bar
Nobody notices me stumbling toward the pickup truck
I call and you say that you’re coming right away, it’ll be okay

I’m scared to analyze the embers of the coals you’ve walked on for two years
I want to turn away instead of seeing all the parts of you I’ve burned and seared

I want to love you
I want to love you
The way you love me

I wake up desperate to explain to you all the ways I care
Forgot I learned that gestures full of love aren’t always kind
I want to hold you but my hands are sieves you are falling through
It’s painful mending holes but it’s not as bad as embracing air

I have to analyze the embers of the coals you’ve walked on for two years
I want to turn away, instead I’m seeing all the parts of you I’ve burned and seared

I want to love you
I want to love you
The way you love me

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
