most go screaming
unseeing
a truth too tall to tell
with no subtle feeling
held aggrievance
a wasted call
a silent stunted spark
it's not science fiction
or inherent contradiction
it's just the way that you see
when your hands aren't tied to me
when your only witness
made you carry your own forgiveness
it's just the weight that you free
a slow relief
unname the names
widen the frame
it's a looser game to play
in the line of spite
you can stop at any time
when you need it
light, align
(they'll say)
why would you
want to
wait on the side?
An easy-to-love combination of emo and jangle pop, the first full album from Spirit Night in eight years feels bathed in a golden glow. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 8, 2023
