you built me a white picket fence I did not want you to Went for a walk to clear nonsense I was never sincere don't tell me what is wrong I don't really care don't tell me what is done because I am my own I’ll wade in our garden of weeds as you plead and implore you bring home all the meat I won't eat anymore don't tell me what is wrong I don't really care don't tell me what is done because I am my own I’ll put my children to sleep and they’ll speak to me in my dreams in my dreams, they speak I will build myself a nest and live in my own blood I'll take a train out west send you letters (I guess)

about

"The [Slow Dance] EP is a marriage of poetry and music, spare music that can be prickly, wistful and invasive if listened to quietly. Save for one song the lyrics are succinct, and colorful — images of dragonflies in someone’s eyes, a boy crying in a library, walking in circles, a sundress, a train traveling out west."
-Brian Tucker, The WAE
