lyrics
painted words on a table mean nothing
but carve them and bleed
burned into place we slept together
you were on your knees
she is out there somewhere
begging for our grief
broken lines dot the boulevard
on the way back home
she’s tucked into a pocket sewn shut
just so no one’ll know
i can hear them laughing
but i knew you’d go
i can’t stand still
and you can’t hold back
i’m gnawing on your tattoos
you paint your windows black
conversations beat
my eardrums cadence on their own
i wish you were here instead of out there
sewn shut and stoned
you have to hold on while i go down
the degree to which she becomes a character
in my mind is the degree
to which she becomes absent from my life
i would starve to watch you crawl
but carve them and bleed
burned into place we slept together
you were on your knees
she is out there somewhere
begging for our grief
broken lines dot the boulevard
on the way back home
she’s tucked into a pocket sewn shut
just so no one’ll know
i can hear them laughing
but i knew you’d go
i can’t stand still
and you can’t hold back
i’m gnawing on your tattoos
you paint your windows black
conversations beat
my eardrums cadence on their own
i wish you were here instead of out there
sewn shut and stoned
you have to hold on while i go down
the degree to which she becomes a character
in my mind is the degree
to which she becomes absent from my life
i would starve to watch you crawl

about
Munny & the Cameraman Portland, Oregon
Born out of an acoustic tradition, Munny & the Cameraman incorporates a uniquely textured mix of instrumental musings and lyrical intensity. What started eight years ago has grown into a "beyond-acoustic" partnership - carefully blending styles of Americana folk, blues, jazz and indie-rock. M&tC is a sonic experience that feels strangely familiar, like you've known them all along. ... more
