Meet Me After Dark

from Hold Back All My Dark by Minor Birds

/

lyrics

Night breaks day
Light fades away
I lean in close because I wanna say
"It's not too late"
But it is
The creatures begin to stir
Showing off their glowing eyes
And those expensive furs

I take you by the hand
As we try to leave it all behind
We can leave them all behind
If we can just make it around the bend

You look back and I can hear you scream
I say "it's ok. The night just changes things
In me"
Ignore the glowing eyes
Let's just make it around the bend
And when day breaks it'll all be the same again
I hope I'll be the same again

There's no knowing what's to come
As we run from each other
And we run from ourselves
The truth is, we're all monsters
And no one can tell
What's around the bend

about

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.

Intrinsically poetic, Wilde’s music is about the journey, rather than a set destination.
