recorded at gizmo, studio C & the tower. mixed at the tower.
mastered by margaret luthar at chicago mastering service.

lyrics

Summer brought me pretty girls & kisses sweet,
Bright green leaves from fairy-tales absurd.
Winter brought me lonely nights
My heart to teach
That nothing’s gone, but nothing’s just a word

Sing me pretty bird
Sing me how the murdering is over,
The crooks that took the world are gone,
One;y what is real,
Only for the earth that would feed us
The beautiful, uncertain dawn.

Summer taught me how to fly above the world
& where to put the wild dreams in my head.
Winter taught me how to cry, my tears canceled,
But only for the living not for the dead.

Summer asks: “Hey! Where’s your heart that never breaks?
Where’s the pretty girl to mess your hair?”
Winter has her in his arms, make no mistakes,
& you’ll find your heart awaits you there.

"...hazy & beautiful, content to balance contradictions: critics calling them at first "clear & bright" & then in the next sentence, "creaky & weird;" "the best-kept secret in American music of the new century." ... more
