Wings Alleluia

brantly The Hope Sandoval comparisons on the vocals are certainly present, and the music hints at her bands' work, but here touches of good ol' fashioned rock flesh out the gloom-pop skeleton constructed via the spectral, yet very strong voice. An interesting LP for sure. I'd love to hear what Thayer's voice could do with just a guitar in a stripped-down, much less produced setting.

bartlemahieu I'd fall off a cliff in deep fear but also in utter salvation while hearing this track.
Favorite track: O My Soul.

Monkey RobbL Just a wonderful mix of reverb, dreamy lyrics & vocals, and dark instrumentation. Kind of like Hope Sandoval singing with Morphine at a roadhouse in a David Lynch movie. This is a fantastic record!

O My Soul 04:55
O My Soul : Speak to me, speak to me. Hold your flame so I can see. Dance with me, 1 2 3. Palm to palm and cheek to cheek. Palm to palm and cheek to cheek. Hold my hand, hold my tongue. Make me quiet like the dawn. O My soul, O my joy. Lift my hands and lift my voice. Lift my hands and lift my voice. It moves the sound ( my soul, my soul) It moves the dance (my soul, my soul) It moves the sound, it moves the dance, we dance, we dance We dance... In the wind’s wail Oh my soul We dance through the gates, through the veil Oh my soul, oh my soul. Dance with me, 1 2 3. Palm to palm and cheek to cheek. Never fail, you never fail. Pull my hands through the veil. Pull my hands through the veil.

Grace Goes On: We thought we’d come farther, farther down some line But time was just arrows on a circle changing it’s mind The circle is endless, but the circle is the same We just keep repeating and using different names. How many times how many fires, How many codes how many liars, How many lessons till it’s done, How many wars until it’s won? So here we are again (same old road same dead end) Why can’t we see it coming (wears us out and we give in) Can’t remember where we’ve been (same old pattern same old song) So grace goes on... I can see the shadows behind the screen that are tied to unraveling The lesson is endless but the lesson is the same Hear the song hear the same song Grace goes on and on.

The Eternal 03:55
The Eternal : Sun, rise on the sides of our minds, of the mountain mouthing names. Feathers of light, on the sides of our eyes, Oh river, open your wings. I saw your face in the water I saw your face in the smoke. You come and go, old soul. When you come, I carry on. I’ll carry on, on and on I will carry your song on my lips. I saw you fly and I heard you laugh Open your soft eyes again. Live forever, through your song Ma-ha-la, ah-le-lu-ia (Alleluia).
4.
These Arms 04:00
These Arms : Where is the place we still believe—where the Spirit never leaves? Where do space and time release? Where will you find me, where should we meet? Where do I walk with my cold feet? Into your arms These arms I dream. Holding strong and carry on, Follow the line from the palm. Hear the song, on the shoulders of God That holds these Arms I dream. Show me how to stay and show me again, So I remember where I’ve been Into your arms, these arms dream. Into your arms, these arms I dream.
5.
Red Sun 04:44
Red Sun: I feel the circles fall through the sky See the face on the hills and the spirit to the right Everything is shining, I see the light Voice in the silence and the spheres come alive. Should I let go of you, or hold on tight? Should I stare at you, or close my eyes? Red Sun... Has come. Come back for me, find out where I am Shine your light on me, for as long as you can I wanna feel like the dawn, I wanna hear your song Echo of the spheres like the banging of a gong. Should I let go of you, or hold on tight? Should I stare at you, or close my eyes? Red Sun... Has come.

BACK TO THE HOME: Take the whole, take it apart And move the pieces to the start Cause this time we’d be older, this time free This time our souls could finally see. The air is changing colors, I’d hoped for better weather in your eyes Is it wrong that I’m still looking, For that old familiar light? Sometimes you open your channels, Sometimes you pour them on me. But mostly you’d just rather Be a vast resistance to this dream. Oh come back here where I’ve been waiting And meet your heart that I adore Take my hand and walk on with me Back to the home that we’ve become. Back to the home that we’ve become. Oh it hurts to see this all It hurts to open tired eyes But I wish you’d see through your wall Or put me on the other side. Oh come back here where I’ve been waiting And meet your heart that I adore Take my hand and walk on with me Back to the home that we’ve become. Back to the home that we’ve become. Take the whole, take it apart And move the pieces to the start Cause this time we’d be older, this time free, This time our souls could finally see.

Totem 04:30
Totem: All the animals that you seek are shown up in circles 3 They are here here to guide you, To the one you need to meet. they sing a song I’ve heard before Sounds like all I knew a long time ago Like a wooden dream The animals tell us where to go they are here for us they hear us The spheres grow as time flows All the animals, they know they know. You can see them in the trees, above it and beneath There’s a heaven on this earth, It breathes it breathes it breathes.
8.
White Shores 04:37
White Shores : Heart rise in morning water Bless yesterday as today Now flying as forever Call, call, and call All, all, and all. I trust what holds us, So still, so still I’ll marry mystery You have me You have me. White shores are where we least expect them buried just beneath our plans And peace runs to us, through us, At last. One soul, one soul I thought that was you May I see you through? This now at last This now at last. White shores are where we least expect them buried just beneath our plans And peace runs to us, through us, At last.

Wings, Alleluia: I wanna sing like the statue, fountain lips of stone With eyes carved open, they are staring home The dead go to my eyelids they live Like falling leaves Their name brings meaning Brings meaning to my grief. Oh mystery, cover me. just how long, how long? How long till we know— till we know we are free? I call on mystery, so I can tell I rest in glory it is well in my cells. Good night sleep walkers, goodnight hungry ghosts I see through ya, hallelujah Oh mystery, cover me. just how long, how long? How long till we know— till we know we are free? Is there a name for it, is there a name for these wings? —— Will you stay with me Watch and pray It feels like we could be This holy place. If we can breathe we sing Through all the love and the pain Yes let us do this thing Where we know, we are the same. Do you think the birds can feel it? And will it affect their flight? We watch them cross the sky With what feels like our own two eyes. Now we at last remember Who we are and where we began Sing it again, sing it again There is love, alleluia, amen. Amen....
