Stephanie Barclay I listen to Light Bends on my morning walks to get coffee. Her vocals just make me feel better. "And the room is spinning Faster than the record we put on" - I've been there. The contrast in her voice just gives you hope! <3 Favorite track: Light Bends (Live Session).

Please don't touch me now I'll find peace somehow This is not our end You forget that light bends You lay me down And the room is spinning Faster than the record we put on My eyes are filling with salt Oh, this is no one's fault Turn the lights down Maybe in the dark, you won't seem so far How much hope exists When waiting for A sleeping limb To awaken You come around And ordinary people Stop and take a seat Just to watch our eyes meet And how far the ground is from our feet You talk of lovers Like picking flowers from a tree While you sit And pick the parts you like off of me I know you love The scripted mystery Living without borders Doesn't mean you're living free Turn the lights down Maybe in the dark, you won't seem so far How much hope exists When waiting for A sleeping limb To awaken To awaken...

We met in an April shower Oh, what a lovely hour it was I learned your eyebrows first And your hands next Your heart was still an open mess You love with no consequence Taking none of the blame And none of the offense You ask me what I hide behind my teeth Save for my sense of self and security How much more Do you want from me? How long before You will let me be? How much more Do you want from me? Blue, you're made of Fire and grace And not sure how much more heat I can take 'Cause I'm running On cold all the time Before you I was running just fine Blue, are you a romantic who's lost all his hope? Waiting around For it to prove its worth? You ask me what I hide behind my teeth Save for my sense of self and security How much more Do you want from me? How long before You will let me be? How much more Do you want from me?

I was still dancing at your feet Trying to keep up with your beat I was learning your streets But I kept tripping over the shadow at my feet When the water was up to my neck Did you think I’d forget? I can’t get out of this wet Did you think I’d forget? Every time you were surer than the rest Did you think I’d Did you think I’d Did you think I’d forget? We take on the shape of what ever contains us You break down walls before I can really brace You forget your lines are drawn in sand And when you closed my legs you were still holding my hand When the water was up to my neck Did you think I’d forget? I can’t get out of this wet Did you think I’d forget? Every time you were surer than the rest Did you think I’d Did you think I’d Did you think I’d forget?

I’ve got bells on my back And silence on my heels I’ve got stars in my head I’m holding on to everything I can’t feel I’ve got yellow on my mouth I won’t whisper if you don’t shout I’ve got black on my fingertips I’m pulling at your edges until they rip I’ve got honey on my throat My words are sweet, but sometimes I choke You have salt on your tongue You think you’ve won You have diamonds to your name Bending rules in your own game You have power in your hands I keep trying to make you understand I have secrets in my ear Tell me quickly what you don’t fear I’m a lioness in a frame And I’m not ashamed I’ve got honey on my throat My words are sweet, but sometimes I choke You have salt on your tongue You think you’ve won You think you’ve You think you’ve You think you’ve I’ve got honey on my throat My words are sweet, but sometimes I choke You have salt on your tongue You think you’ve won
