Doing things I’m not supposed to do Feeling things I don’t want to
He’s unwell and I want you
Or anything to give way
In the shadow of the world again
Lost in some silent reckoning
Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ra-li
In daylight savings time
Money’s not an issue here
I spend my time out on the pier
When it gets cold I’ll have a beer
When did I retire?
My life’s a tangle of vine and thorn
I grabbed the wrong bull by the horns The matador seems so forlorn
As often it is these days
Telling the way we’re concerned with trifling The corkscrew turns as the barrels rifling Driven into the softer flesh
Torn out of its home
You could be alone in your thoughts right now As if you knew the meaning of words somehow Peace be with your troubled mind
You know nothing except from behind A flower but from behind
A flower from behind
This record was recorded by my friend Micah under similar circumstances as Apple Core (and with similar equipment). Playing with Micah this year inspired me deeply and this record feels like home. Spencer Hoffman
This record is Ryan coming into his own as a producer. It's at once nostalgic and novel. It's your new best friend who it feels like you've known forever. Spencer Hoffman
Lou and I took frequent long walks together during the making of Apple Core and this record. It was one of the things that kept me sane during the pandemic. Lou is a gem and this record is primo. Spencer Hoffman
supported by 4 fans who also own “A Flower From Behind”
Lost track of these guys for a couple years, then saw the Tiny Desk concert come up in my feed. I've had the album on loop on Spotify since Friday.
This song in particular has been stuck in my head all afternoon. quiksilv26
