Devotion

I am the great pretender
for as long as I can remember
with fortunes of forward motion
and visions of growing orchards
but white moon strings they found me
and she wrapped her arms around me
and she wrapped her arms around me
and she whispered she said
darling devotion
it puts stars in the jewels
and darling devotion
it’s all we can do
I am the dusty diamond
I sparkle and shine in silence
a thousand times I’ve tried it
just to let it slip behind me
but your time span orbit found me
and you wrapped your arms around me
and you wrapped your arms around me
and you whispered you said
darling devotion
it puts stars in the jewels
and darling devotion
you know it’s all we can do
yeah we can do it
we put the stars in the jewels
yeah put the stars in it
you wrapped your arms around me
and you whispered you said
darling devotion
it puts stars in the jewels
and darling devotion
it’s all we can do
yeah we can do it
because it’s me and you putting stars in the jewels

Pendulum
03:45

you're the cat's eye
you're the pendulum
when the orator says
it's your time, you're the one
all the natives sing
you know it's your time, you're the one
little fears, little fears
whispered in rabbits' ears
but now you're gonna swing like a pendulum
in your mind's eye
you see pentacles
fortune tellers say
it's your time, you're the one
and your wife, she says
it's your time, you're the one
little fears, little fears
whispered in rabbits' ears
and now you're gonna swing like a pendulum
little fears, little fears
whispered in rabbits' ears
and now you're gonna swing like a pendulum

Black Starling
04:02

all the lonely sole survivors of markets of the ghosts
obsidian only where magma is exposed
where the world is wide
with wonders worth the roam
wild watcher in the night
sing until you melt the stone sing
blue in the islands
blue in the sky
daddy don’t cry it’s just a bump in the night
black starling white violet
don’t leave the palace silent
stream it stars and tears wands and pentacles
let me light you like a candle
I will light you
black starling white violet
lonely lovers in the keyhole lonely lovers on the run
bones in cranium shakesperean
dedicated dedicated dedicated ones
don’t think twice what’s done it’s done sing
blue in the islands
blue in the sky
daddy don’t cry it’s just a bump in the night
black starling white violet
don’t leave the palace silent
stream it stars and tears wands and pentacles
let me light you like a candle
I will light you
I will light you like a candle
let me light you
black starling white violet
oh please daddy don’t
all alone all alone all alone
oh please daddy don’t cry it’s just a bump in the night
black starling white violet
don’t leave the palace silent
stream it stars and tears wands and pentacles
let me light you like a candle
I will light you
lonely lovers all survive lonely lovers all survive all alone
I will light you like a candle
let me light you
black starling white violet

Pray For Rain
03:07
|

are you rough and ready tumble?
are you careless like a child?
when you lost her did you smile?
do you stumble are you wild?
are you fading in the shadows?
is it always on your mind?
when they ask do you decline?
are you ruthless? are you kind?
or are you cut in two
cut all the way through
are you cut in two
cut all the way through
are you hot and heavy jungle?
visions lifted in the lace
was it just a little taste?
did you say it to his face?
now you’re dancing in the shadows
and they’re calling out your name
is is pleasure? is it pain?
did you pray for rain?
or are you cut in two
cut all the way through
are you cut in two
cut all the way through

All Night
02:42

dark nights and blackest dreams
when nothing’s ever as it seems
and you are all alone
and what’s left in between
when creepers pick your stitches clean
and you are all alone
but there’s one thing they can’t keep
this twilight kiss from me
all night I’ll run with you
till black in the sky turns blue
yeah all night I’ll run with you
till black in the sky
late nights and starless stones
when there’s no moon to lead you home
and you are all alone
but these nights they live in me
and I have clever energy
and you are not alone
but watch them run and hide
when I light the lightning shrine
all night I’ll run with you
till black in the sky turns blue
yeah all night I’ll run with you
till black in the sky turns
till black in the sky
yeah all night
till black in the sky I’ll be with you all night

Pure Bathing Culture Portland, Oregon
A duo with a knack for making music that sounds unearthly yet familiar. The beautiful strangeness of Sarah Versprille and Daniel Hindman's music dominated their 2013 debut album Moon Tides; on later albums, such as 2015's Pray for Rain and 2019's Night Pass, they streamlined their sound and put their catchy songwriting front and center. ... more
