A mesmeric, vocal-echoing, hauntingly strange, beautiful and woozily wondrous mix of avant-folk and jazz by the acclaimed Chicago composer, vocalist, guitarist, and poet, heralding her upcoming new album, Nested In Tangles, out on 10 October by Fire Talk Records. In this song Frances remembers a past of harm, lamenting: “How you hurt us to feel stronger / in the wrong, doing the wrong / smoldering as the rage lingers longer”. It also follows her acclaimed 2024 album Keeper of the Shepherd. To explore and enjoy more by Hannah Frances - see also the other embedded links below.
Righteous indignation
I hear the shrill of the past yelling, telling me to
Run fast ahead
He wants me to tread light and stay tender
But I'm a jagged hand
I learned from you, how to leave, how to fight hard
How to pull apart and push away
Waving through a closed window waiting to be
Mirrored back, refract the light left on
My palm pressed to the glass I
Feel it cut through
Homesick
Homesick
Homesick
Watching the fog lift and the smoke drift through the morning now
How you hurt us to feel stronger
In the wrong, doing the wrong
Smoldering as the rage lingers longer
Thеre's nothing more to give toward forgivеness
When there is no willingness to understand
I stand clearer now
Seeing how
It's always been
I'll never win
In the end
It's a bending it's a breaking
Down
Palm pressed to the glass
I feel it cut through
Homesick
Homesick
Homesick
Homesick
I know the fury of the throat and the swallowing
Tear the teeth out
As the lies fill the mouth drowning in sound
Spit the blood out
Surviving you
Cheek pressed to the glass
I feel it cut through
Homesick
Homesick
Homesick
