lyrics

Minnesota my home for the time being
Minnesota where my lovers are
Minnesota I’m alone for the time being
But you know wherever you go there you are

Minneapolis you’re like a second skin
I see your face every place I’m in
But I want to know you new this time
like a child learning a nursery rhyme

Home is a place where people know your name
but there are so many strangers all the same
I love my city like I love myself
full of pain and hope and something else

Birds fly through here on their way up north
and some people haunt the streets like ghosts
I thought you were an island all your own
but every wall depends on every stone

In Minneapolis it’s cool to hate the cops
but they’re just reapin’ where we sowed the crops
I’m sick of bein’ idealistic
I want to face my shit right where I pissed it

I don’t have much to say about the past
fresh new slate each day no gold can last
and if some new love comes knocking on my door
before I let them in we’ll have tea on the porch

Our new travelogue album just passing through is a mix of full-band and solo arrangements of songs Gabe wrote while on a six-week solo road trip last year. Loud guitars and heavy drums intersperse with minimalist piano and banjo for a rollicking journey through heartbreak and back. ... more
