lyrics

Smooth operator, dial me in
I like my chances slipshod and slim

the oilskin, the fisherman, the marrow in the rib
the salmon fin, the wave it’s in, the ocean and continent

Could you go slower? Could you get lower?

bright is the sundew waiting for flies
Red is its well-hidden heart when it’s dry

The southern ridge, the mucilage, the lenses in the eye
The phantom itch, the biting midge, the stretch of forest in the night

Could you go slower? Could you get lower?

Once there was me and then you and then me and then you
And then me and then you and then me and then you
And a dream of a dream of a dream of a tune
That we dance to from midnight to noon

If you’re a stranger, act like you are
If you’re a carnivore, bloom in the dark

the public park, the dog that barks, the chamber in its heart
the flying dart, the waiting mark, the throng of bodies at the bar

Could you go slower? Could you get lower?

Once there was me and then you and then me and then you
And then me and then you and then me and then you
And a dream of a dream of a dream of a tune
That we dance to from midnight to noon

Every Time You Go Somewhere (2010)
by Mal Blum

supported by 4 fans who also own “Sundew (Me And Then You)”

I saw Mal Blum perform years ago at a show and I felt instantly connected to the songs they wrote. There's something just really comfortable about the stories the songs tell, and it can seem so personal at times that it just feels like your own feelings inserted into the words you couldn't find on your own. sammichbot

What a great album. It took me a while to really get the whole album but I can confidently say it's one of her best. The shorter songs are certainly a different feel, but I still like it. I could pick like five different songs as my favorite and all of them would feel right lol praisedrays
