self-deprived of my own legitimacy
gaslighting my own intimacy
late response to my own urgency
spinning in and out of vacant dreams
what is my experience worth
what are my opinions worth
what are all my feelings worth
if i can’t share them?
aching skull and grinding teeth
sleep in snow beneath the leaves
breaking under heavy heat
i can’t bear it
swallowing down my tongue - no chance to speak
slipping in and out of anxieties
drifting through my life at frightening speeds
unable to push myself through it
aching skull & grinding teeth,
sleep in snow beneath the leaves
bite my cheeks and start to bleed
i can’t bear it
aching skull & grinding teeth,
sleep in snow beneath the leaves
leap into the frozen sea
i can’t bear it
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
