One Week in a Life

about

“One Week” is about the ephemerality of it all. Settling into a moment can feel like forever and then it’s over. Life changes in an instant. Aren't we richer for the experience?

lyrics

The freedom of knowing nothing… But would you trade it for a memory?
There is freedom in nothingness. There is freedom in silence and hibernation. But would you trade it?

She is working through her horticultural past. Fumbling through artifacts of futuristic and ancient tasks. A pool of love so grand and vast it produces pangs of heart attacks.

We split a bottle of champagne and danced for days and days.
Oh honey, I won’t leave this behind; it will stay in my mind.

Like the destruction of the fire following ephemeral bloom, could we be within and without this structure of glamour?

Oh, for now I’ll take your hand and I won’t watch my feet for once.
Miles from the party… miles from our friends and family…. We are miles from the party...
And I start thinking maybe you could be that guy I come to rely on, though that thought feels fuzzier than the nights after one-hundred-thousand beers in a bar owned by The Black Angels. The swirling psychedelic art makes me think this could last forever.
But it’s just one week in a life.

One week in a life
