Summer 2018 - Bitterness, Loss, Wonder

This song is the closest I was emotionally to the trauma that had befallen me, and the inspiration to write and tell stories came to me suddenly this particular summer. I started Patreon as I was working at a starbucks and a music studio and decided to document my song writing.

lyrics

A cold wind blows in the air tonight.
A cold wind. It's the middle of summer.
A cold wind. Much like your breath on my body.
Did you remember to brush your teeth?

I am a statue. Standing long. Standing proud.
I am a statue. Rigid in my movements.
I am a statue. Crack me open like an egg.
What will you see inside?

Like a geyser. Like a gusher. Like the long-gone air.
I'm a tornado. I am a flourish. A flash in the pan.
All part of the plan.

Place me in your house, and then forget about me.
Tell me I bring you luck! Tell me that together, we can do anything.
When your house gets torn down, down to the ground.
Will you remember to bring me?

Or am I stuck? Will I fall at your feet-
Like a geyser. Like a gusher. Like the long-gone air.
I'm a tornado. I am a flourish. A flash in the pan.
All part of the plan.

A cold wind blows through your empty, shattered house.
I am a statue. I bring luck! Will I ever be found?
Will I ever be found?
Will I ever be found?
Will I ever be found?
Will I ever be found?
Will I ever be found?Will I ever be found?Will I ever be found?Will I ever be found?Will I ever be found?Will I ever be found?Will I ever be found?Will I ever be found?
