about
There are two characters sitting in the grass, one of them is April.
She hides her hungry fingers in the other’s lap, full of flowers and unspoken feelings.
A chorus of layered harmonies chants like a spell begging her to pull away from a love that has built itself around her like a city, like a cage.
Sparse but lively percussive elements and an eclectic beat imbue the track with tension and urgency. Languid chords and longing hums drip with the melancholy of endings.
Within this sonic bed a cryptic scene is set, like the snapshot of a silent movie we know nothing about: “spit the millionth reason / in spite of what you say / April’s foolish every day.”
lyrics
spit the millionth reason
in spite of what you say
April’s foolish
every day
hide your hungry fingers
idle in her lap
i can spoil the moment
i can spoil that
away away
from the city
from the cage
away away
you’re my city
and my cage
