Ghosty Was Here

michael byars Alluring and hypnotic, sophisticated and sensual. This song ticks a lot of boxes and is further evidence why Quiet Takes is one of my favorite Kansas City artists. I can't wait to hear what's next.

lyrics

Hi, hello, how’s the weather
On the other side
The water’s looking, oh never mind
I can’t see the bottom today
Is that a phone or a wave
Or an axe in your hand

Ghosty says
You’re a bird that’s a leaf leaving the branch
You’re at a party
You’ve got plans
You’ve got hands to hold and leans to close
Whispering stories in strangers ears

Ghosty says
We know what it feels like to fall

Yes, I’m fine, never better
I can’t tell time
Anymore, anyway, so never mind
Sure, I’ve somewhere to be
Is that pride or pity
Or plain indifference

Ghosty says
You’re a bridge that’s been left rotting to chance
You’re filling glasses
You’re with the band
You’ve got myths to grow and favors to owe
You know nothing of hunger and vertigo

Ghosty says
We know what it feels like to fall
To fall
To fall
