lyrics
our friends were coming over to see the new place
more of yours than mine
i kept stealing glances at you
gathered in the middle of everyone
laughing and talking like you were
in those southern living magazines my mom used to read
i was holding a beer
it was getting warm in my hand
you walked over and tried to calm me down
even here in front of people i'd known for years
my hands wouldn't stop shaking
we snuck out on the porch and i told you i had that dream again
the one where it was christmas and we were coming back
from visiting your parents in birmingham
only to find the house in ashes in the snow
you didn't know what to say
we didn't have the curtains up yet
the light from the living room was spilling out onto the porch
it was a barrier between us that we'd never be able to cross
more of yours than mine
i kept stealing glances at you
gathered in the middle of everyone
laughing and talking like you were
in those southern living magazines my mom used to read
i was holding a beer
it was getting warm in my hand
you walked over and tried to calm me down
even here in front of people i'd known for years
my hands wouldn't stop shaking
we snuck out on the porch and i told you i had that dream again
the one where it was christmas and we were coming back
from visiting your parents in birmingham
only to find the house in ashes in the snow
you didn't know what to say
we didn't have the curtains up yet
the light from the living room was spilling out onto the porch
it was a barrier between us that we'd never be able to cross

Turns (the song, in particular) is precisely the music I wish I could write. It has a melancholic/introspective feel while still having drive behind it.

Hymn Binding
by From the Mouth of the Sunsupported by 54 fans who also own “Dinner Party”
Incredible atmospheric cinematic ambient like neoclassical beauty. If blissful serenity was an album this would be it. simply can not give it enough credit. Such a deep, emotional and mesmerizing experience. Your thoughts will drift into it so effortlessly. A mix of melancholic and hopeful songs with incredibly soothing and expansive soundscapes. It really does wonders for ones' mental being and brings such blissful joy that by time it's over you won't feel the same in the least. Magnificent
