lyrics
There must be a line between functional poetry
And self-flagellation
With a beat and a melody
These songs I've been writing
Are ever increasingly lists of my vices and fears
I tell myself that It's Art Because Honesty
But honestly, honesty hasn't been good to me
Lies and adrenaline are natural medicines
I'll take a nap while they steer
Like a shitty MacGyver
I improvise problems with everyday objects
Here's one I built out of milk jugs and matchsticks
So even when I'm in a twist about nothing
I still have the comfort of sucking at something
And I still apologise mostly on reflex
Shut down your feelings
Wallow and disconnect
But it's not my fault
It's just one of the side-effects
It's going to be like this for weeks
This is just what I need
It's just what I need
When do the symptoms begin to recede?
It's just what I need
It's just what I need
I feel the heat of your head on my cheek
Maybe together
We might be better
More than the sum of what makes us both weak
Before you arrive and I let you inside,
Promise you'll leave
When my shit gets old, honey
Promise you'll leave

I do not normally cry because of music, or fiction in general. Chords made me cry. Every time I listen to it, it still feels like a warm, tight goodbye hug.
But it isn't what convinced me to buy this album, because damn, I knew I would right from the start of Secret Worlds, and knew it ever more at every song. The way the songs here can combine to tell a whole new story, and even reference others from The Horror and the Wild, is just magnificent. Mayana

This is a great adaptation of Arthuriana and a brilliant narrative album. I love how the queerness of the characters is handled as an integral part of the narrative and plot development without it being the end all be all of the characters themselves. my boy Gawain deserved better though maritarvaniti
