Bloodline
Standing there
Pavement stains
Another chest pressed down
Do you ever change?
Who’s been living on the front foot?
Who’s been living on the front line?
Say hello to your bloodline
You’re living in a dream land
If you don’t see the rot
Sitting there with a fixed hand
On top of all the things you’ve got
It’s not enough to be half-awake
While the poison trickles down
Dripping through your bloodline now
Say hello to your bloodline
Stepping out now
Burst my milky eyes
Get my history down
It’s time we got wise
To every last crime
Every smothered life
Running through this bloodline
Feel every name like a raindrop
Gonna drown this hell
Eyes up and then rip down
Our centuries-old selves
Put your money where your heart burns
Put your rage on the line
Stick a blade in your bloodline
Stick a blade in the bloodline
Standing there
Pavement stains
Another chest pressed down
Will you ever change?
No more living on the sidelines
Here comes the shifting tide
To roll over your bloodline
I love these alternative versions of the 'Murmuration' songs. The stripped down instrumentation creates an intimite vibe, while the poem intertwines them into a concept-like album. As a result, this is a new album that stands out on its own and that is more than just a complement to 'Murmuration'. 'Ordinary' already was a beautiful song, yet 'Extraordinary' adds something extra for me. And because the piano intro somehow calls up some recognition. Another beautiful album by Emily Barker! rbergman
Inspired by John Carpenter’s 1974 film “Dark Star,” the beautifully moody songs on this LP present a voyage into the unknown. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 21, 2021
Kris, this is a fantastic record. I don’t normally get as excited over best of’s, but this is so well done. New versions of already excellent songs, bringing new perspectives and some excellent new songs to boot. I highly recommend it; anyone that’s thinking “naw it’s just a mash-up of existing songs”, it’s definitely not - buy it, you won’t regret it. poolo
