Benjamin was on the road
He sent me a message, said that he missed me
The weekend was grey
The morning brought a dampening mist
And your eyes were watering with the breeze
The minutes slipped in the space between
Pull me nearer to you
Our stomachs rumbled, in the morning I put
birds in baskets, you made the bed
I’ve always had more words
than with which I knew what to do
But now none of them even nearly suffice
I laughed while you just closed your eyes
Catch me under your spell
I don’t ever wanna see her landing
Skyscraper number twenty-two
face-down on the bathroom floor
I don’t ever wanna see her landing
And your cat left a scratch right across my left arm
I handled your hair into a tangle of knots
And I’m not gonna lie
I laid the lightest load at your feet
And now I feel so fucking defeated
And now the cycles all just repeated
Pull me back into you

I really love this album. The way the melodic/harmonic motifs seem to have these slight variations and overlap in different ways is constantly fascinating. Also the drum rhythms are just so cool. Also the sort of “found sound” stuff, like the typing and writing sounds, adds really nice texture. Nick Joliat

Honest & uninhibited, Ben's guitar and voice move effortlessly and unreservedly from sweet to insistent to ecstatic. No posturing, no pretense. His heart is wide-open here -- as in youth. jobo3208
