about

Been working on this song for...over 16 years. It is about a friend who was murdered and at times had a hard life and I so I thought about it for a long time and let it manifest organically with deep respect. Offered with reverence to the Universe in this person's memory and in the name of creativity, which I have very distinct memories of her championing.


Thank you to Kellii, Bria, Ash, Sean Paul, Dave and Mo as well as Georgie and Aki for helping me complete it.

-MYE/2023

lyrics

I can't believe that someone took your days and nights away
Can't believe they never gave you a chance in self defense to say anything.
All you wanna say forever more, now you're lying on the floor.
It's not fair, so many others a million times more terrible.

And I can't believe that you're gone. Senseless, bad deal gone wrong.

And I remember when you stood up in art class and confronted the teacher
Said creativity it can't be boxed in cuz that's not its most extraordinary feature.
And I remember another cold morning I found you passed out on Bleeker.
Can't believe no pillow for your sweet head, just a pair of dirty sneakers.

And I can't believe that you're gone. Senseless, bad deal gone wrong.
And I can't believe that you're gone and they say your name means woman of Magdala.

And I remember through it all you were dancing inside of a waterfall
The end of Summer, before the Fall...without a care at all.
