1.	Acre Memos, Lomelda - Another Bird Song 03:26	lyrics	buy track
I know it's hard to be With all the olive branches breaking I have a story to tell But I’m not sure I know how I’m hungry for the universe To wrap their arms around my heart To give me clear eyes It’s hard enough to know why Like a songbird in the sky A mockingbird jumps after their song And all the red birds in the backyard are my grandmother The blue ones aren’t around anymore And I can’t feel You anymore But I’ll try and I’ll try my best
2.	Blue Bottle Snuff Jar 02:43	lyrics	buy track
Lovely water flows through my fingers Brown it may seem from the dirt underneath us I can see you as long as water moves gracefully past our bodies Summer moon peaks their head through the Trees in our backyard, blue bottle snuff jar Echos ring when we're out dancing I hear them crying, sobered past dying Scary flashlights, faceless chickens Running ‘round naked, nothing is sacred I can feel the overcast blowing All of their mothers died from cancer
3.	Colored Hair 03:30	lyrics	buy track
On that day, river’s sweet water grows in my hand Around the bend later I noticed your colored hair Smile linger in eyes crawling deep into my skin He’s a ghost just like your mom he was next to go And I know it's easy to cry Forever, widowed skies And I wish I had more time To talk with you in my mind Here I go, lost wind desires forgiving the sun Tall tree sounds drowning over the lives I let down Run away over Kiwanis, a creek bed I find All of my dreams swimming and flying his life passes by And I know it's easy to cry Forever, widowed skies And I wish I had more time To talk with love in my mind

A beautiful album that feels like that special part of lonliness, like the joy of driving on empty stretches of highway with only your fleeting thoughts to break up the landscape losthuman113

A soul so beautiful yet so tragic made for love and to yearn yet to be hurt and maimed by reality and the reality of love and loving another, yet choosing to love them anyway, beautiful without compare. thelord33
