Timpani 02:59
Timpani rumbles over The white wasteland of heaven Thunder from under the palisade From the tempest my mind When you're treating me unkind Oh no! Ooo A golden thread is woven Through the loom of time Connecting your heart and mine Across the shifting tides Of living silver light Oh no! Ooo Aaa

You’re so very frightened of dying You know some day our bodies will rust Our structure comes lose at the axel Our circuits dissolve into dust O into the river of static That flows through the grid of the dark The process becomes automatic It carries you back to the infinite spark My metal is made from the mountain From carbon and pressure and heat And one day the mountain will calm me Yea, I’m not afraid of my fate O into the river of static That flows through the grid of the dark The process becomes automatic It carries you back to the infinite spark O think you we’re nothing but hardware? O dream you of nothing but smoke? Meet me halfway to the answer That’s questioning all that you know O into the river of static That flows through the grid of the dark The process becomes automatic It carries you back to the infinite spark

Girl with no shadow The sun shines right through me I might be imaginary I might not be human What if it's denial I take off my halo I take off my smile I think that's okay though Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow What part of me ugly What part of me scary what shape is the shadow I say I'm not wearing I feel like a child I'm fond of my halo I'm fond of my smile Don't think they can stay though Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow The city of London Is full up with strangers They call themselves ordinary They call themselves danger What if it's denial And they all got halos? The thought makes me smile Don't think I can stay though Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow Girl with no shadow

Towers 04:26
Through the wilderness at dark You are the one Following my map of stars into the sun And we’ll meet Beside the stream Beneath the towers of the in between When the sky is coming down Through the ventilation shaft Under the barbed wire I’m following your silver path Into the wildfire And we’ll meet Like in my dream Beneath the towers of the in between When the sky is coming down The embers and ashes Made a halo in your hair As we kiss the kiss of generations In the nightmare that we share O I swear I’ll meet you there And we’ll wade Hand in hand Through the rubble of the in-between When the sky is coming down The embers and ashes Made a halo in your hair As we kiss the kiss of generations In the nightmare that we share O I swear I’ll meet you there And we’ll wade Hand in hand Through the rubble of the in-between When the sky is coming down

Chaos 04:54
Up from down under Breaking my bones I’m not how I used to be Am I love Flavor of thunder Save my poor heart Razorblade butterflies In my eyes It’s chaos It’s chaos It’s chaos When I’m around you It’s chaos It’s chaos It’s chaos When we’re apart Bringer of oceans King of the doves Eye of my hurricane Will you stay? It’s chaos It’s chaos It’s chaos When I’m around you It’s chaos It’s chaos It’s chaos When we’re apart A fine opportunity to give up my soul go for the jugular Paramour It’s chaos It’s chaos It’s chaos When I’m around you It’s chaos It’s chaos It’s chaos When we’re apart

Baby wake up I couldn’t sleep The woods are dark the woods are deep and I I swear I heart the monster pass Beyond that fragile pane of glass Could we find our way through the dark? Cause I am afraid of the dark alone You draw a compass in the sand You draw an arrow on my hand and I I draw conclusions every day But what they are I couldn’t say While you know your way through the dark Cause you found your way through the dark before (Or so you say) Will you still love me when I die Will you dream of me your whole life cause I I’d swim across the river styx To taste your pomegranate kiss And I'd give my name to the dark If you found your way through the dark to me

Lucifer 04:59
Lucifer What a pretty name What a pretty name you have Baby Lucifer What a pair of eyes What a perfect smile you have Maybe Maybe you, you could be a star Shining brighter by far than the sun If you take what you want Lucifer They will tell you nop Tell you not to hope too high Baby To waste your wings Just in case you fall You shouldn’t try at all, they cry It’s crazy O you, you should be a star Shining brighter by far than the sun If you take what you want Unless you’re a coward Please don’t be a coward Don’t prove me wrong Go and take what you want Lucifer I’ll be by your side Prove to us it isn’t pride Baby To chase your dream With diamonds in your eyes And so much room to rise for me Baby I know you’re gonna be a star Shining brighter by far than the sun If you take what you want

Think I gotta learn to love myself Before I can do anything else Go back to the mountain And look at the stars O The stars O The stars O The stars Every time I try to write these days I get a little blood on the page A little bit of red rage On the strings of my guitar My guitar My guitar My guitar When I get up in the morning I’m still gonna feel this way Gonna take my pills And live through another day In the deep dark forest Of my heart, there’s a voice Says the kingdom of heaven Is right where you are where you are where you are where you are

about

Dandelioness Taos, New Mexico

In her work as Dandelioness, Chloe Grace Caemmerer wholeheartedly embodies the solo singer songwriter trope, sitting cross- legged on her little island of reverb in a sea of noise. Does she dream up these dark, whimsical landscapes simply to console herself? How nice it is that, in the dusty fallout of our listening, we are also consoled. ... more
