lyrics

climb up and raise the dead
that once cast a shadow and walked like a man
our weight could have stopped a train
but heavy in life is weightless in death
hung by my heels, hung by my toes
the stories are old, stories are old
hung like a lion, hung like a mole

oh lord, making up for lost time

i wake and walk at night
hungry for sleep but i sleep in the light
i slept around a lot
wasted the harvest, none left for crops
hung like a lion, hung like a mole
the stories are old, stories are old
hung by my heels, hung by my toes

oh lord, making up for lost time

about

yesper Seattle, Washington

yesper is a box with strings, one pair of hands, a mouth and a mic. Seattle is home now, but I still miss Virginia from time to time. i make records by myself because i'm afraid of commitment. i make records in secret so that they'll sound mysterious. i make records.
