Nightwand 01:39
When you said "I'm all in" I pictured an ocean What is love anyway, if not devotion? Ah You walked up the stairs from the sauna dragging a cloak of steam up to the light Ah the night waves it's wand and the pine boughs turned into a chandelier of lights But when you said "I'm all in" I pictured an ocean What is love anyway, if not devotion? Now I can't feel your waves, You're an ocean far away. What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now? What does your love mean now?

Stupid things that I don't mean all spilling out my mouth I will try to hold my silence circling always down Down I can feel the spectre of myself inside my body Try to remove all of it so I can be full falling Falling down Always down But I believe in catastrophic failure as a way to know which way to go And I will follow silence circling downwards Always down "What do you think the lighthouse keeper might say about you moving in? Oh he won't mind at all, It'll be company for him and I'm sure he'd like someone to talk to, looking after a lighthouse is a very lonely job. Ah, but if you thought Moomin, that might be exactly why he chooses to do it. You mean that he might want to be on his own all the time? Well some people like it like that! Sometimes I like being on my own... Not for long though."

Jo 01:28
Jo would never call me a bad name Jo wears a halo over their head 24/7 Jo helped me put away my christmas decorations and We both like Charlie Brown Jo would never go swimming with someone they didn't feel a magical connection with Jo helped me move into my house Sometimes Jo brings me bread from the bakery and We both like Tove Jansson's Moomin

Fangs! 01:29
Huh huh Huh huh (WINE DRUNK) I'll break you down I'll make you bleed Fangs inside your neck, taste sweet I never really felt complete But you give me everything I need I just want you to match my energy (huh huh) I know i can seem a little messy (huh huh) Promise I'll hold onto you I'm ready (huh huh) Even if it gets a little heavy (huh huh) Talk to me like i'm the only girl you know I lose my mind a little bit inside of the vertigo But I can hold you down, yeah that's all i wanna be right now So kiss me on the mouth and I'll fall into your open door I have no money yeah I never thought I was waiting for this feeling that I feel to stop but you just kept and kept and kept on holding on Start to think that you like it when i drink your blood I'll break you down I'll make you bleed Fangs inside your neck, taste sweet I never really felt complete But you give me everything I need I lose my mind inside of the transfer God is in the wires but you're inside me like a cancer Eat away at everything 'til there's nothing left I'm made of Corrupt all my files 'til all I think about is blood I'll break you down I'll make you bleed Fangs inside your neck, taste sweet I never really felt complete But you give me everything, everything

Good Things 01:04
(whats up with- whats up with you? whats up with- whats up with you?) Hay bales Silos Low clouds And hangouts Swimming holes Your love Waterfalls And overalls Truck tires blistering in the hot sun Shooting your sibling with a water gun Extra large waffle cone at the tastey freeze Hug from your grandma after you scrape your knees Hay bales, Silos, Low clouds, And hangouts. Swimming holes, Your love, Waterfalls, And overalls. Dog collar jingling, Folk singer singing, Hungry hungry hippos, And bonfires... (whats up with- whats up with you? whats up with- whats up with you? whats up with- whats up with you? whats up with- whats up with you?)

Don't HMU 01:07
(WINE DRUNK) Hold on I'm reverting back to how I used to be And I don't wanna do that... Holy fuck I just lost my sense of self control I spent a long time trying to grip tightly to anyone I could hold But I don't want to need you, I'm a new person. Can you please deal with it? Don't hit my phone when it's late at night and you want to change your mind. Babe, I know you're not ride or die. Don't hit my phone when it's late at night and you want to change your mind. Babe, I know you're not ride or die. Holy fuck I just lost my sense of self control I spent a long time trying to grip tightly to anyone I could hold But I don't want to need you, I'm a new person. Can you please deal with it?

Eeyore 03:21
Maybe i should move to France and join the Trappists, spend evenings picking tangerines, staring at stained glass windows for centuries. Or maybe i should move to Vermont and learn poetry from Mary Ruefle, rent a little loft, survive off ramen and toaster strudels. But i went out again, and the world swallowed me up. We went from a bar to a liquor store a bar to a liquor store we went from a bar to a liquor store a bar to a liquor store No one can hear what I'm saying, hope they cant see my lips moving, No one can hear what I'm saying, hope they cant see my lips moving (namu amida butsu) Oh, I know you don't care, (namu amida butsu) your halo slid off now its floating through the air lord jesus christ have mercy on me (namu amida butsu) your halo slid off now its floating through the air I don't talk like I used to, "If you don't stop this'll bruise you", this kind of life is a lose-lose, when I'm the Eeyore in a room full of Whinnie the Poohs, in a room full of Whinnie the Poohs, in a room full of Whinnie the Poohs, in a room... We went from a bar to a liquor store a bar to a liquor store we went from a bar to a liquor store a bar to a liquor store No one can hear what I'm saying, hope they cant see my lips moving, No one can hear what I'm saying, hope they cant see my lips moving NAMU AMIDA BUTSU (Oh, I know you don't care,) NAMU AMIDA BUTSU (your halo slid off now its floating through the air) NAMU AMIDA BUTSU (Oh, I know you don't care) LORD JESUS CHRIST HAVE MERCY ON ME (your halo slid off now its floating through the air) LORD JESUS CHRIST HAVE MERCY ON ME (Oh, I know you don't care,) NAMU AMIDA BUTSU (your halo slid off now its floating through the air) NAMU AMIDA BUTSU (Oh, I know you don't care,) LORD JESUS CHRIST HAVE MERCY ON ME (your halo slid off now its floating through the air) NAMU AMIDA BUTSU (Oh, I know you don't care.)

Holding my breath waiting for you. I love you more than I ever did before. When you arrive I will sacrifice my body on the altar of your truth, I will heal my own body. I am a healer I can change I am not only who you say I am I am a healer I can change I am not only who you say I am (WINE DRUNK)

Highway Moon 01:39
Highway moon, I can't get enough of your light I just shed it off into the blue I am still myself even when I don't know me we lift the lantern up so its only our eyes we can see. We can share this halo, we can both be half angels, we lift the lantern up, so its only our eyes we can see. Northern loon, I can't get enough of your cry it just echoes off everything i do. I am still myself even when I don't know me we lift the lantern up so its only our eyes we can see. We can share this halo, we can both be half angels, we lift the lantern up, so its only our eyes we can see. I am still myself even when I don't know me we lift the lantern up so its only our eyes we can see. We can share this halo, we can both be half angels, we lift the lantern up, so its only our eyes we can see.

Good Omen 02:20
Black cat, good omen. White snow, I'm rollin' down side- walks hazy, bike chain clicks, baby. I know you want me, I give you nothing, you don't deserve that, but I'm fading fast. Ghost town in the summer, cop car angel numbers, packed tight in the winter, cold air by the river. Ghost town in the summer, cop car angel numbers, packed tight in the winter, cold air by the river.

about

JAMES: This album came out of the sky like a giant snowflake, Elora and I just happened to catch it. Elora and I have been friends for years now, I think it’s fair to say that we met in the ether, and have stayed there. This album is unique in both of our catalogs, I think we both poured our most esoteric feelings into this album. But please don’t be fooled, the lyrics are the veins of this album. And because words shared from far away are what has kept us (spiritually? heartfully?) close, I think that makes sense—that the binding agent in these songs are the lyrics. Singers of these songs run on frozen lakes, they mumble prayers in crowded bars, they ride their bike through empty towns in the summer and see holy signs, they see a winter night freeze even the light around it. they are me. they are Elora. They are you too. We are Wine Drunk.

Namu Amida Butsu. Halos halos halos. A string of yarn. Dead goldenrod on a mantle. Oil swirls in a gas station parking lot.


ELORA: This album feels like a photograph to me. Putting this together felt like cleaning underneath your bed for the first time in years and discovering a loveletter you don't remember writing. It is a picture of what was and is, it is questions, and answers, and more questions. But most importantly, it forever captures the shape and form of the love and community that I found in Michigan, Mount Pleasant, and beyond. I would like to thank a few people:
James, thank you for making this album with me. You are so very kind and intelligent, and you are the most encouraging person I have ever met in my entire life. You make me love creating, and appreciate the mundane in a way that is extremely special. Thank you for challenging me and experimenting with me :)
Melanie, thank you for being such a wonderful friend to me, you are so funny and talented and I don't know what I would do without you. Let's make music together forever :)
Jax, you are my flesh. Thank you for filming the Eeyore video, and thank you for always being there. You are extremely smart, funny, and emotionally intelligent, I love you more than I have ever loved anyone or anything. I know that we will find our way to each other in the end.

Special thanks to Noelle for shooting the album cover. love you forever sweetheart no matter what. I'm so glad that we met, I hope that we can stay friends.
