about
Recorded and mixed by Bob Hoag at Flying Blanket recording in Mesa, Arizona over two days in November, 2011.
Everything tracked on a 1978 Neve 8078 console, using a 1940's RCA 44DX ribbon microphone.
All songs recorded live in one take, no edits, no overdubs, just me and a 1948 Gibson J-45 acoustic guitar.
All songs mixed to analog tape.
lyrics
"All Souls' Day" - Lyrics and Music: Kristopher Roe
You said you wanted to be loved,
I think you wanted to be saved.
But tell me how am I supposed to save a girl like you
When I don't even know how to save myself.
Wish I could just forget,
The double lives, the awkwardness,
A union scarred by bitterness,
A house was built on top of our regrets.
There we were in California,
Two tarnished golden hearts.
Were we ever really together,
Or just afraid of being apart?
Wish I could drive all night,
Wake up in the harsh day light.
In a different town, start a brand new life,
And never have to see your face again!
I wonder if this spell we're under
Will ever be broken?
I wonder if this spell we're under
Is ever going to end?!
I guess there's never any closure,
Just that last look in our eyes.
You said you hope that I'm happy now,
When we both know,
Like everything that's one big fucking lie.
I wish I could turn around,
Erase our lives take back those vows.
I guess it's not that easy now,
I'd tear that fucking chapel to the ground!
I wonder if the spell we're under
Will ever be broken
I wonder if this spell we're under
Is ever going to end?!
Today I woke up
And these leaves had all withered,
Faded and fell to the ground.
Like our tired hearts.
I wonder if the spell we're under
Will ever be broken
I wonder if this spell we're under
Is ever going to end.
