Uncommon folk
you and I
we are not of this world
Take my hand
breathe deep
the rarefied air
Champagne and OJ
the river
could last for days
Wait, for me
Lost you along the way
Lost you for good
Dreams, plague me
Lost you along the way
Lost you for good
Uncommon folk
you and I
we are not of this world
Take my hand
breathe deep
the rarefied air
Champagne and OJ
the river
could last for days
Wait, for me
Lost you along the way
Lost you for good
Dreams, plague me
Lost you along the way
Lost you for good

Look to me

shy places
we don’t look
hide with me
old echoes
new heartache
futures passed down
the long days
the short years
won’t disappear
brittle tears
little sorrows
Look to me
Put it out of your mind
Pictures fade in time
I’ll be by
your side
if you’ll
be by mine
lost faces
found letters
safe with me
teen poems
old problems
futures turned down
not yet
not ever
to be real
florid
reminder
Look to me
Put it out of your mind
Pictures fade in time
I’ll be by
your side
if you’ll
be by mine

How many times – must I – repeat myself
I’ll live forever
chained to this rock – must I – pass the time
was it worth it?
No good deed – for sure – goes unpunished
can’t please everyone
Elsewhere, someone loves me more than this
I’ll heal again
fill the void again
Hindsight, I would do it all again
I’ll feel again
closer to you again
how many times – must you – vent your spleen
Will I live forever?
So burned – was I – for my fiery gifts
needs of the many
the sound of feathers – alarm me – it’s that time
can’t please everyone
Elsewhere, someone loves me more than this
I’ll heal again
fill the void again
Hindsight, I would do it all again
I’ll feel again
closer to you again

Twice as bright
burns half as long
Undone Unsaid
subplot charts
Redux the past
Lost parts
Seen so much
and not enough
wear and tear
won’t buff out
the supple hand
the rosy glow
softest skin
I remember well
rock and roll
won’t puff out
the subtle hand
The stolen goods
the tarnished gem
I can’t replace
Parasite
in my mind
Ghost or host
rattle my bones
Dance me
to the end of time
Love so much
and not enough
wear and tear
won’t buff out
the supple hand
the rosy glow
softest skin
I remember well
rock and roll
won’t puff out
the subtle hand
The stolen goods
the tarnished gem
I can’t replace

Office Space

Take a number for me
hold my place in line
it’s alright
if I’m left behind
Don’t let this one moment
pass you by again
you’re right
to fantasize
I know I’ve been told
once or twice before
it’s finite
this one life
When can we share your air
Clasping hands
like we use to dare
I don’t care what you wear
stay a while
office space is spare
can I see your future
behind searching eyes
don’t worry
we’ll both be fine
rest your conscience
into tiny tears
of mercy
for our combined years
I wish it was it a story
but it rings of truth
this world
is not for me and you
When can we share your air
Clasping hands
like we use to dare
I don’t care what you wear
stay a while
office space is spare

Nothing fancy
You and I
We can get about
Just fine
We can manage
without your help
Don’t underestimate
your shallow self
Actors only
antagonize
You cannot look us
in the eyes
Whose
life is it ?
I can’t help but lecture this
Who am I
head up
you can’t take our hearts away
Head alone
Youngest fears
Here’s all we
got to hear
All awake
all hours the night
Only our anxiety
has got us frights
Whose
life is it ?
I can’t help but lecture this
Who am I
head up
you can’t take our hearts away

Feel it on the breeze
struggle just to breathe
feel my ego being seized
god you’re hard to please
struggle through the night
crying at the light
make me climb to any height
but you know there’s no fight
listen
you can hear a pin drop
you can feel the time stop
if you awaken
listen
sounds through the window
coming from the shadow
eyes flutter open
Feel it on the breeze
struggle just to breathe
feel your ego being seized
god I’m hard to please
I struggle through the night
crying at the light
make you climb to any height
but you know there’s no fight
listen
I can hear a pin drop
I can feel the time stop
if I awaken
listen
sounds through the window
coming from the shadow
eyes flutter open

Take me out of town / I’ll show up too
Take me all the way to / venus and back
I’m not evidence / to leave behind
Pack all / your belongings
It’s a trip away / to space
you can’t be helped / along the way
Pack all / your belongings
It’s a trip away / to space
you can’t be helped / along the way
Pack all / your belongings
It’s a trip away / to space
you can’t be helped / along the way

You’re crafting
a new world
where just prevails
and the daft and dandy
and the not so handy
are just the same
wrap yourself

One Final Summit Before The Fall
by Submotile
supported by 9 fans who also own “Afterglow”
Shoegaze with a grand sound. Daniela threads highly melodic vocals into the seams between the driving guitar layers and the busy drum patterns. There is a heavy punch to this release and the thrust of it often sneaks up out of a hazy lull when you least expect it. A favorite of 2022
