lyrics

Can you see my bones?
I know you can
I’ve worked real hard
To nurture them
I know you’re scared of
What’s happening to me, but
I’m finally beautiful
Why can’t you see?

They brought my meals
Into my room
There are lots of nooks
To hide it good
Your hand reached out
I recoil in shame
Retreat within
To purge or abstain

I know your heart is tender
You want my surrender

The food has gone from my hidden shelf
Sister found and buried it herself
She’ll keep safe my secrets within
But I can feel her rage
I’m sure getting thin

I know your heart is tender
Erase this dread of gender
I’m glorified, no splendour
You want my surrender

Can you see my bones?
I know you can
As your eyes swept past
My fragile hands
My mind has slowed and
My body’s cold
I’m totally
Out of control

Tides of Time
by Liz Stringer

Recently rediscovered this album, there's something powerful in it's spirit. It's definitely one you can leave on repeat in the background as the soundtrack to life. Cat Canteri

Southern Light - 2016
by Sal Kimber

Such killer musical choices from the players in the band, and fantastic mix and sonic choices on the production front. Not your typical Alt Country record. Cat Canteri
