The manifestation of restless emotions is released within the slow stream of melodic tears on wounded skin. Here enters a voice which glides as delicately as a dragonfly along sun soaked water in its waltz with the wind. Much like the sounds of a brewing summer storm, she serenades with a brooding intensity.
Sounds bloom from bright bold brass. Silence is drowned in the drowsy droning of steel strings sliding into their sleepiest state. A sound so alive yet lyrically numbing. From this stems a deeply rooted extension of Faye Webster's croons in melodic musings. “Hurts Me Too” sways timidly amongst moments of bewildering honesty and peaceful pain. A story teller with words to be contemplated carefully in a crumbling world that is clouded in deep misunderstandings.
A summer serenade for the sticky moments of a life spoken honestly...
“My mother told me one day
She's tired of my sad songs
But loving you has only
Made me cry twice or so
The day that I said I loved you
You didn't say it in return
That was the day I realized
That silence is actually hurt
And I am done changing words
Just so my songs sound prettier
I just don't care if it hurts
'Cause it hurts me too
I hate that feeling at night
When I thought my eyes were closed
But they were open the whole time
It was just too dark to know
And what am I 'posed to do when
My dad cries in front of me?
Do I just close my eyes and
Pretend like I didn't see?
And I am done changing words
Just so my songs sound prettier
I just don't care if it hurts
'Cause it hurts me too.”
