I opened my voice but I had no mouth
Closed my tears but my eyes just ran down
From the sky to the ears on the ground
Opened my voice but I had no mouth
I’ve broken the silence and watched its collapse
Closed my eyes as if no time had passed
The cruelness a blindness that finds us outlasts us
Broken the silence and watched its collapse
You’re told what to do when you do what you’re told
Hell’s the intention to pave a good road
Not to mention the unmentionable

Juxtaposing poetic balladry with roaring feedback and warped piano lines, the Vermonter's music is as stunning as it is unsettling. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 21, 2024
