lyrics

It's a hot one in the Lowcountry tonight
Got a hundred dollar bill that says he's coming home
O grave, if you hold him, won't you hold him tight?
O highway, if you teach him, teach him not to roam

Where, oh, where've you run to now?
Where are you?

Well, I'm tearing down the Interstate,
And I've not resigned your fate to fate
Well, I trust you're doing well
But your leaving's opened up my door to Hell

Bet it's hot in Houston
Bet it's awful pretty
In the fall in Asheville
Or in Johnson City

Bet it's dead in Franklin
Now the mill is closing
Bet it's stark in Lawtey
Bet it's nice in Bozeman

Bet you got it made in Macon
Bet you're doing better
Bet it's grand in Goose Creek
Caught a movie in Monetta

Bet it's cold in Greenville
Or is it Travelers Rest?
Hope you've found your own self
Hope you're warmly dressed

VI: Flora
by Botanist

Really puts the "hammer" in hammered dulcimer. Meditative, droning, misanthropic black metal with an unusual instrument at the center of it all. The Camellias

Sprained Ankle
by Julien Baker

Direct, confessional, bracing. Listen to Julien. The Camellias

W - Part One
by GARDNSOUND

Gardner's main project. It's like Trent Reznor discovering chillwave. Blissful and eclectic. The Camellias
