Soaking, why do I want it to be so steeped
I’m unable to be like another raincoat
Let it run over my shoulders
I’m getting older
There’ll be no breath left to keep when I’m down here so deep
Lately I’ve been taking all the time I need
to understand the nature of a man I meet
when I’m in the shower
And I’ve allowed him
To be afraid underneath the water
It leaks
I’m not a stone
Just a loose cork
In the ebbs I’ll float on
I can’t hold back this water
It slips through my fingers
The flow never lingers
I’m lost to the river of time
As I try to grab it
The waves keep on crashing
To say it’ll never be mine
I want to be a giver
The taste still delivers
I’m safe in a bottle of wine
It slips through my fingers
The flow never lingers
I’m lost to the river of time
And it’ll never be mine
In a bottle of wine
In the river of time
It’ll never be mine
Glassy fingers aren't made for miming
I am really human
Yes please, take me for a ride down stream
Why do I love this album? I really think Genevieve Artadi is an under-appreciated genius of a songwriter. Also, the painstaking layering of the vocals is truly impressive. And the performances of the other musicians are amazing, too. I guess I love everything about this album, pretty much. (Other than maybe it makes me feel bad as a musician.) danwebbhoward
Following the works of Pedro Martins brought me here and to quite the overwhelm. The musicianship on this alongside Artadi's dream world of art pop songwriting, vocals, and key arrangements is truly magical and euphoric, from the most uplifting moments like on Visionary to the valleys of 'Change Stays'. Truly an AOTY of 2023 and a beautiful record. Infernal_Flowers
