Don't look at me like that, like I'm made of magic
You'll grow out of it.
They always do
And don't look at me like that, like I hold the world in my hands
You'll grow out of it
They always do
Don't look at me like that, like I make wine from water
You'll grow out of it
They always do
And don't look at me like that, like I'm some mystical creature
You'll grow out of it
They always do
I'd go back in time if I could
Light it all up on a pyre of wood
And these two hearts in my chest
Well, one just gave out, and the other doesn't have much time left
So burn it down, burn it down
Push my raft in the water
....watch me drown
Just look at me like that, like I'm carved out of stone
I'll get used to it
I always do
And don't look at me like that
When I say I'm better on my own
Get used to it
They always do
I would if I were you
I would if I were you

I was born under a dark moon
Against reason and nature
And the blackest of nights came so soon
In the heart of this creature
Oh, Mother of Rabbits
Shelter me from myself
Piece me together
And deliver me from this hell
He was born under a red moon
Against reason and nature
And crimson as blood, it came so soon
In the eyes of this creature
Oh, Mother of Rabbits
Shelter him from himself
Piece him together
And deliver him from this hell
We feel the kick, we feel the hum
We feel it burn deep in our lungs
We feel the kick, we feel the hum
We feel it burn and we feel numb
We feel numb
Oh, Mother of Rabbits
Shelter us from ourselves
Piece us together
And deliver us from this hell.

Minor Birds Oakland, California
A classically trained pianist and self-taught multi-instrumentalist, C.Wilde spins poetic tales, with a voice oscillating
between a silky coo and a guttural howl.
At heart, her musical gems take form as emotionally-receptive storytelling.
Intrinsically poetic, Wilde’s music is about the journey, rather than a set destination.
