Another day,
Another disguise
Of charming demeanor,
Past pretenses behind
We all fell for your change in conscience
Until the real you came bleeding through
You bleach stains with your words
Believing that your schemes
No one will ever know
But I dug deeper and discerned
Your lies
Yes, sirrah, I know
Pull me down in the murk
I lurk
To find
The truth and the salient reason
Why
Why I
Let you lead me here
I know you know everything
I know you are so much better than me
I know that you feel so right
When you prey on the weak
And lead me
On another
Long, winding trail
To the waters of
To the waters of
Lethe
Hardened hands push me down to the brink
To drink,
To forget,
To repress this memory
And I see the sweet water flow
And you push me forward to
Drown and drink…
Tender hands
Save me from drowning
My sweet friend pulls me to shore
Now, all I see
All I know
Is your
Caring soul
Now, all I see
All I know
Is your
Caring soul
This stunning two-part work from classical guitarist Kevin Daniel Cahill is suffusive ambient that aims for transcendence. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 18, 2023
The songs on Kelly Reed’s latest are slyly self-deprecating, set to a backdrop of measured keys and guitar for maximum stateliness. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 16, 2023
