she was a brave tangle
dual wielding, charm locked ankle
her saber marbled vermillion
feigned vengeance into existence
she buries her blade down deep in the sand
your time is wasted
on an endless spire
ghost bridges want closure
defunct pathways will we cross over?
you press your heel in the concrete
each stride makes a new machine
even cities need to let out a sigh
i sigh
i sigh
i sigh
i hate the smoke til its in my chest
then it tastes so good to me
now that’s when i can breathe the best
i sigh
i stretch so high
i reach for the sky
part angel, part machinery

The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
