Go and throw a brick at a car
See if you can jerk off a tear
I’m just trying to get a hold of my heart
It’s beating all the blood to my ears
Now it’s the hottest part of the day
I guess I shouldn’t walk here alone
There ain’t nothing that can keep me away
But that don’t mean I’m ever at home
Tell me where I hurt you the most
See if you can tell it apart
From the bullet in the chest of your ghost
The murmur in the back of your heart
The thorn that you still got in your side
From trying to separate the rose from the weeds
Be careful who you look in the eye
Unless you think you’re ready to see
All the hell we pay
All the hell we earn
Every single day
Leaves another burn
If I make it out ok
I just don’t know what it’s worth
The iron in your vein is just the iron in the dirt
So try to see it through to the end
See if you get lost in the crowd
But I can feel it every time I walk in
I know that you don’t want me around
I guess there’s really nothing to say
At least there’s always something to see
Maybe everything will turn out ok
The rodeo can crucify me
All the hell we pay
All the hell we earn
Every single day
Leaves another burn
If I make it out ok
I just don’t know what it’s worth
The iron in your vein is just the iron in the dirt
Same sinking feeling, who wore it better?
Pulling us apart and tearing us together
Same sinking feeling, who wore it better
Not everything gets better
Not everything gets better
This is such a local gem. Tasty, buoyant, conversational improvisations that don't quite sound like anything else but are also totally approachable. A must for guitarists and drummers. Tracy Manuel
Caught this one when it dropped and it's been a constant fave ever since. Super gooey, somber pedal steel meditations with few additives. Transcendent. On repeat every long, lethargic NorCal summer. Tracy Manuel
Off-kilter, relentless, unexpected, and endlessly absorbing piano minimalism. But not like the kind you've heard before. This is bubblier. Tracy Manuel
