lyrics

Call and answer, Mama’s dancer, minces no words,
Just so things can get better.
I am not your rival, you did not betray me.
Have you seen me lately? I still hear you calling me out.
Something about these ordinary lies, stacked up,
They are where I’ve been hiding. Are you around?
Can I call you in five?
I’ve made an arrangement of words to cover the space dividing.
One and four will cut you, two and three will kiss you,
I am so afraid I’d miss you.
It’s all smoke and mirrors, trying to love you cleaner,
I bury my face in the water.
Something about these ordinary lies, stacked up,
They are where I’ve been hiding. Are you around?
Can I call you in five?
I’ve made an arrangement of words to cover the space dividing.

about

Layperson Portland, Oregon

Julian Morris situates his music at contrasting intersections.  It's a music that is at once emotionally urgent and yet brimming with graceful patience; tender and vulnerable while still forceful and resilient.
