about

Acoustic version of our song "Wendy", off the upcoming "The Downs" EP.

Recorded and mixed by Phlip Coggins at Amusement Park Studios, Lubbock, TX

lyrics

"Come", he said
"Let's fly", he said
"Take my hand", he said
"It's off to Neverland", he said
"You're so sweet", he said
"You are mine", he said
"We're so happy together", he said
"Till the end of time"

Waves will crush you in the shallows
Bones can break when you fall in the shallows
I fell in deep with a boy in the shallows
I fell in love with a boy with no shadow
I fell in love with Peter

She was in blue, a color that now suits her
He wore green, her darling young suitor
He wanted, so much, to pretend that he was her savior
But twilight came, and how quickly he forgot her....

Waves will crush you in the shallows
Bones can break when you fall in the shallows
I fell in deep with a boy in the shallows
I fell in love with a boy with no shadow
I fell in love with Peter

You will never grow up
But you will still grow old

My bones did break when I fell in the shallows
I made a mistake when I followed you into the shallows
You told me it was deep.... but it was shallow
And now you've gone...
You've flown off...
Chasing your shadow.

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.
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.
