lyrics
To lay my head on a stranger’s chest
An island of bones
To make this ocean feel like home
See I’ve been figuring out
How much I’ve come to turn things down
For fear of spilling out
For fear of speaking much too loud
To lay my dress on a stranger’s bed
A blanket of skin
To keep me warm
To keep me in
See I’ve been figuring out
How much I’ve come to turn things down
For fear of spilling out
For fear of speaking much too loud
Now my voice has fallen out
Can you teach me how to shout
Or dissolve me into sound
Of the birds of the bees
Of the murderous waves
As she flees from the scene
To the guiltless embrace
Of the sand of the sea
Now she’s all that she was meant to be
I’m so afraid of what she’ll think of me
That I can barely breathe
And I can hardly speak
And what if she can’t hear me
If I never let her near me
An island of bones
To make this ocean feel like home
See I’ve been figuring out
How much I’ve come to turn things down
For fear of spilling out
For fear of speaking much too loud
To lay my dress on a stranger’s bed
A blanket of skin
To keep me warm
To keep me in
See I’ve been figuring out
How much I’ve come to turn things down
For fear of spilling out
For fear of speaking much too loud
Now my voice has fallen out
Can you teach me how to shout
Or dissolve me into sound
Of the birds of the bees
Of the murderous waves
As she flees from the scene
To the guiltless embrace
Of the sand of the sea
Now she’s all that she was meant to be
I’m so afraid of what she’ll think of me
That I can barely breathe
And I can hardly speak
And what if she can’t hear me
If I never let her near me

Take Me With You When You Disappear
by Medicine Boysupported by 28 fans who also own “A Stranger's Chest”
What a pity that I discovered this Berlin-based band 3 years after their dismissal. Hats off to Lute FP who pointed at this, their swan-song. Sometimes this reminds me of a rawer version of Andrea Schroeder, elsewhere of PJ Harvey's earlier stuff, where you could never predict the next emotional/musical outburst. I'm excited to learn that one half of this project was the same Lucy Kruger I'm going to see (with the Lost Boys) on next year's OBS in the Glitterhouse garden!

Engine of Hell
by Emma Ruth Rundlesupported by 20 fans who also own “A Stranger's Chest”
It feels like I'm listening to the delicate lineaments of someone's well-lived soul alongside their memories etched into the stria of a record disc. Haunting, evocative, and beautiful. I love this entire album. To ERR is human.

Kinda Like Electricity
by Medicine Boysupported by 19 fans who also own “A Stranger's Chest”
this album and the band music have a bit of mazzy star vibe to it. the songs well written, a dark tales and poetry with suprising guitar distortions, which its always a good mixture. the songs arreangment in this album leading the listners into the stories. the vocal preformance of this musical couple is electrfying and hipnotizing. overall its a great album and very intresting band to follow thier next move.
