    "Erlewine’s songs, with Bathgate’s production, evoke the earthy hum and autumnal chill of northern Michigan’s pastoral wooded areas and farmland. All set to strolling, or drifting tempos, meditative pedal steel guitars warble in slowly over minimal percussive taps and the quiet boom of a bass; Erlewine’s acoustic guitar and lilting, songbird vocals are the warm, glowing heartbeat of the album, but it is curtained by the occasional ambient rumble of Bathgate’s furtive electric guitar, which isn’t adding a melody as much as it’s poignantly varying it’s growl to fit the mood of each song. The end result is a refreshingly indiscernible middle ground between what you’d imagine as traditional folk songs, with ambient-rock and neo-Americana." -Jeff Milo

lyrics

You’re way down deep within me yes it’s true
I thought you were me ‘til I knew
I fought for your survival in my youth
Now I call that running from the truth

Fear has a way of killing time
Of growing more becoming every line
Of blowing all your roses into wine
Seducing you into ‘everything is fine’

You warned me you said
Honey don’t you do that to me
But I did
That hold out, hang me up, forgotten kid

You warned me you said
Honey I’ve got years on you you see
But I gambled once again against my faithful misery
With anger as my savior ‘til it drained the life from me
All the while, feeding fire, this aching just to be

Free
Free
Free
Free

I’m so sick of feeling ugly around me
There must be more to living in my being
Than to set myself up so hard for to fall
By making myself out to be so small

I know it isn’t yours
I’m sure it is all mine
I came home empty handed and alone most every time
I could barely sing a long and lonesome, lonely, lovely line
Far from knowing what it takes
I had to break to hold the light
Hold it right

All this substitution’s a poor excuse for the sublime
And even though I knew I knew it, I walked that same road every time
Pain caught up with me all dressed in bold
Cinched up her best decoy and stopped me cold

I woke up and looked around
I felt so old
Panning all these fears for years
Foolishly thinking I’d find

Gold
Gold
Gold
Gold
