Black Hair 06:30
Leaving my shadow down here in New Orleans Drag me by my black hair I come back howling your name I come on the wind I come in the rain I come by the riverside I come home to you again I come home to you again! Iโ€™ll be in your dreams tonight Tonight! Leaving my shadow! Drag me by my black hair Iโ€™ll see you Oh tell me again Iโ€™ll be in your Only in yourโ€ฆ Only in your dreams Leaving my shadow Come back howling in the night I come back howling your name Leaving my shadow By the riverside I come home to you again

Come Cameila 05:14
Come Come Cameila Tall grass at your knees Leaves under your feet and Love on the mouth And kisses for shadows Rose red lips Neath the pale moonlight! Did you see them Devour the dark Itโ€™s the feast of the night Enjoy it now Before the blood goes cold Before the blood goes dry Come Cameila When the wolves go wild Are you ready to join In the pale moonlight the scent guides you Oh rosy lips Your hungry kiss! It's the feast of the night Cameila Donโ€™t leave Cameila Itโ€™s the feast of the night The animals roam You'll find me there all alone Neath the pale moonlight! Come Cameila! Come Comeila! Come With me

Summerland 12:57
I tell you now Only the Devil knows what I need My heartโ€™s been empty since youโ€™ve been gone Summerland oh Summerland Seems so far from home And I never told you What hell you put me through No I never said How broken Iโ€™ve been 'cause of you Summerland oh Summerland Seems so far from home And Iโ€™ve got nothing in my pockets Nothing Iโ€™ve ever owned Just the wind in my hair And the cold in my bones Summerland oh Summerland Seems so far from home And I made up my mind That if Iโ€™m lost then I must be free Now that you're gone So gone and Iโ€™m chained These dreams got a hold on me Your loveโ€™s got a hold on me So each night when I sleep I follow your shadow Down to the water And drink blood from your dying hands Summerland oh Summerland Seems so far from home Far from this wind in my hair And the cold in... And the cold Summerland Summerland And I tell you now Only the Devil knows what I need But my heart's been so empty Since you've been gone Summerland Summerland Seems so far from home Far from this wind in my hair And the cold in... And the cold in my bones.

Swamp Eyes 05:31
The serpent The luminous dust Weaver of words At night The red bird dies in a jar I called out your name In the rain under the moon I crushed that red bird till it bled Oh then you came Born of the wild and flame You were always there for me Like the shadows on my floor And in the dark trees I see your swamp eyes The Devil The daemon the ghost Secrets untold At night The red bird flies from the jar I called out your name In the rain under the moon I raised that red bird from the dead Oh then you came Born of a thousand names You were always there for me Like the shadows on my floor And in the dark trees I see your swamp eyes

Light died on me Little black bird Follow from a tree Took a minute just to see Youโ€™re looking back at me No one sees What you see Your sweet Hum for me Little black bird Hum from a tree Ever waking light On the eve Tell me a story Tell me itโ€™s time to leave Your sweet Hum for me Little black bird Hum from a tree Ever waking light On the eve Tell me a story Tell me itโ€™s time to leave

Velveteen Wilds explores the darker fantasies of a world not too unlike our own, thriving in a natural wonderland born from ruin. A neoclassical, southern gothic garden of dark psychedelic soundscapes and moody vocals. ... more
