lyrics

Remember when I painted you
In notes?
Recreated everything about you
In four four time?
Of course you don’t
You weren’t there
But you were
All over the place
In rhythms and fingertips
And syncopated missteps

Remember the time
My face got red
You called it a blush
And it made you smile
But red is the color of lust
Of want
Of fire
It’s the melody of
me pretending I have
Any sort of barriers
To loving you completely and breathlessly
Kissing your neck with harmonies
The real kind
Not this music I make
These clumsy tunes
These dying prayers
Of a forgotten animal
The kick and the snare that fade
When there’s nothing left inside me

No, your song is a real one
With lyrics
And a bridge
Chord progressions that make sense
And it makes me wonder if you remember
The time I painted you with notes

But you’re too far to hear me now
Forever on the other side of the Mobius

about

Iambic Beats Los Angeles, California

We have so many titles. A few of mine are: scientist, poet, writer, singer, mom. I like to think I live at the intersection of music and words and always asking questions. A goddamn lovely place to be.
