Soaked Through Matches

I saw the wind as it picked up the raven
It’s cold breezes carried me home,
And that for sale sign all but rusted away
Cause you can’t buy what’s never been owned and I thought to the crow:
Keep your wings open for
Weather that’s hoping to
Take you away from what you thought was
Steady as rain and as
Stubborn as sadness but
Those soaked through matches will
Burn once again
Burn once again
All of the words on my lips and tongue were quick
The salt in my eyes kept them dry
The valleys between your eyebrows and mountains
Do not feel the need for goodbyes
So let yourself
Fly like the bird
When it knows it’s absurd to
Take to the air as
Proof that it’s
Possible feats on their own are complete
But those doubts just repeat what you think you don’t know
When I hear your voice it cuts through the silence
A quiet perfection that needs no applause, I
Feel I’m reminded of why we’ve survived
And I laugh at our minds as they fight for a cause
As they fight for a cause
She thought the strings were like calico cats:
From the front to the back
The vibrations were
Sequenced to show what you already know:
That you are your shadow as well as your light
Keep your wings open for
Weather that’s hoping to
Take you away from what you thought was
Steady as rain and as
Stubborn as sadness but
Those soaked through matches will
Burn once again

Julia Massey & the Five Finger Discount Seattle, Washington
Julia Massey & The Five Finger Discount is a sweetly trippy, magical musical trio led by dreamy flaxen-blonde vocalist/keyboardist Julia and flanked by her happily-raging rhythm section, Matt Deason (bass) and Dominic Cortese (drums).
Julia Massey & the Five Finger Discount recommends:
The Zoo At Night

This is, plainly and simply put: one of the best records of all time.

Monster Love Machine
by Christa Says Yay
Monster Love Machine should be the soundtrack to the next Tarantino movie.
go to album
Drink Champagne
by SISTERS
"Drink Champagne" is one of the best records in the last 15 years. You might want to sit and wonder why and how that is the case, but I prefer to sit back and enjoy the bliss. Favorite track: Buzzard.
