The Sun Always Reminds Me Of You

lyrics

It's a beautiful day
and I went for a walk
but I saw that old dirt path
where we used to talk
where is the rain
cause some spring lovers
are bringing me down again

the years have come
and your hands have gone
but your land is something
lost in a song

why does the sun always remind me of you
yes it does
i hope a new day will come
and cover up what i done

Why does the sun always remind me of you
I would know
that there ain't nothing but love songs
on the radio

turn on the colored days
to peel away the skin
the sun will turn my hands to gold
more than any alchemist

sea water it rounds the edge of shard and turns to sand
I heard you bought a house
and light it up with glass and second hand

why does the sun always remind me of you
yes it does
i hope a new day will come
and cover up what i have done
Why does the sun always remind me of you
i would know
that there aint nothing but love songs
on the radio

always reminds me of you
yes it does
it always reminds me of you
yes it does,
yes it does,
yes it does

why does the sun always remind me of you
i hope a new day will come
and cover up what i have done
why does the sun always remind me of you
i hope a new day will come
and cover up what i have done
why does the sun always remind of you
i would know
that there ain't nothing but love songs
on the radio

Marked For Death

A wonderful place to be. A bit lonely, hazy, like the peak of a montain. Hard to pin down a favorite track on this one. quite

Hiss Spun
by CHELSEA WOLFE

supported by 33 fans who also own “Marissa Nadler”

This album gurns and churns with the dense, atmospheric power of an angel wrestling the forces of hell. Wolfe's voice is an ethereal swirl, but it can cut like a blade. Her guitar, meanwhile, is a reaper's scythe, and with it, she flails like a Balrog summoned deep and raging from the bowels of Middle Earth. It's an album of dreams and nightmares, a sludge-gaze torrent of painful questions hurled into the void. A brave, bold and empowering listen. Michael Mueller
