Light up your eyes the magic of miracles love all the time taking the endless toll oooh, ooh I called us fine you called me an infidel the sun rises high with or without your bones
2.
Hello, blood moon the castle in the gloom the world is waiting the candle light the wax by its side the wick has run overtime oh monster, amnesty I couldn't help it running through the forest diseased the world is quite broken
3.
Elemental 02:14
Listen to the rain I could say nothing to change your mind Here lies the page the ink is down but it will never dry never dry Simple life arranged wind between the leaves puts pressure on the branch come light the way with a flame weak to the elemental wind the wind
4.
The matador swings through red its a miracle a miracle The crowd sings their glorious names of bullied bulls so ridiculed Down to one to one until its erased paint his face with blood whats this? an angel?
5.
Theres a knife sparkling in the blue night restored right just a lack of execution the handle is fine the grain is quite elusive balanced and tried this tightrope has some loose ends take me at my word don't leave me at my worst don't cut me out of your world put down that awful blade before someone gets someone gets hurt
6.
I'll forgive you but only today I'm the only one to like your mistakes miles of nature turns into stoned roads and buildings with bricked legs so many miles of mistakes passing the lampposts harnessing flame the light is dim it rather not be oil drips to the muddy streets the sleep becomes the rain in your dreams I'd love to see the rain in your dreams
7.
Last Life 02:24
Never going to write anymore never going to leave that door open did you see what i saw last night? who was that riding in? I'm never going to lie again do you know where they came from, over what hill? It was glorious the light rays told us so how many injured how many lives were lost how many taken up? how many took their own? I can't imagine how many mothers, now are not
8.
Maravilla 03:36
So much for talking through me you placed the emperess down before me you you said, "good luck" when I left the future teller I felt the same but a shock of memory your name came to me then face and eyes shadows on eyelids lips so bright rouge on your dark Skin dresses in the wind flowing around me flamenco and sin wine in bottles red and yellow bars in tow Ohhh And after I took my ship home I went as far as west As I could go I wasn't alone I had a vision I turned around I saw her Writhing On the shore I can't do this anymore Until we hit land Damn this eternal Song in my head Leading me into the rocks And the sand Nighttime descends On maravilla Ahhh
9.
fire and teeth sabers and lions medals anon horses and lawns violins down the ship play us a song to lead us home will you wait for me running through hills careless children we were falling down explosions everywhere in duress intellect arresting eyes We're seen Instead will you wait for me

about

On February 10th 2019 I wrote 9 songs in a sort of self challenge to finish an album by the end of the week. I have been working on another album for a couple of years now and needed to refocus. All songs on Maravilla are original and were arranged and recorded, mixed and "mastered" by me within 7 days.

As the album was taking shape, it seemed to have a fictional Spanish historical theme to it. The music however is acoustic/indie/alt/folk/rock/pop. As far as influences and styles I borrow heavily from Elliott Smith, Grizzly Bear, XTC, Neutral Milk Hotel, etc...
