Branches
03:43

Hey! You got my head tied up in knots
I knew I was someone but somehow I forgot
Did you cut off all of my branches?
Did you burn down all of my vines?
I lay down in the soil in the cool of the night.
I lay down in the dew and waited for light.
The sun burned up your intention
Illuminated fright
I stretched out my branches
My friends drank all my wine
We had us a party but you had a terrible time

Molasses
07:12
|

There's molasses dripping down the walls
I run my hands up and down the halls
It doesn't matter, I can't find you at all
And there's molasses dripping down the walls
This is the ache of words written on the bone
Black ink scratching history on it's new home
I pulled apart every drawer, still it seems that you've gone
And this is the ache of words written on the bone
These are my hands stitching my heart to my sleeve
It's ill-advised I know, still I can't ignore the need
I took the needle, you pulled yourself close to me
And these are my own hands stitching my heart to my sleeve

Losing
03:57
|
|||
Lightning came down with a violent crack
Threw me to the ground and kicked dirt up my back
Death moved in and stared me in the face
But this is not my time
I will not be replaced
But now I feel like I'm losing
Now I feel like I'm losing
In the place where I laid down outside
That's the place where we found you half alive
And now I pace just outside your door
I cry out but can I come in anymore?
Now I feel like I'm losing
Now I feel like I'm losing
I can hear your voice
I can hear your voice so clear
I can hear stars singing
Stars rigning
Stars singing, "Alleluia"
But Now I feel like I'm losing
Now I feel like I'm losing

Blood Under The Redwoods
04:46
|

Down by the river where the redwoods grow high
The hawk and the eagle make rings in the sky
I watch my own blood soak into the ground
My throat has been cut so I won't make a sound
Here's where my lover he led me today
Here's where he told me there is no other way
And he still "loves me," he says.
He drove me up here under a clear Sunday sky
Here for a picnic and away from his wife
He paid the Yosemite National Guard
Then led me on foot and here broke my heart
Here's where my lover he led me today
Here's where he told me there is no other way
And he still "loves me," he says.
Now all who have eyes come and witness the sight
My love here gathered his courage and might
Now all of my own blood soaks into the ground
The world's getting blurry and I can't hear a sound
Put his hand on my stomach and said, "If it wasn't for this
we could go on in a lover's enchanted bliss.
But my wife doesn't know and she's fragile as it is."
Then my lover leaned in and betrayed me with a kiss
And he still "loves me," he says.

Bullets And Bruises
02:17
|

Give me a gun I’m not gonna use it
I only want bullets and bruises
I only want relief says the son
Turn off the lights and then I’ll keep quiet
I only want to see you deny it
I only want to be the only one
The only one
Oh oh
Give me the stars and I will behold them
I’ll love them, then scold them
I only want to be the setting sun
The setting sun
Give me a gun I’m not going to use it
I only want bullets and bruises
Bullets and Bruises
Bullets and Bruises
Oh oh

Dear Apocalypse
05:36
|

Dear Apocalypse,
You should be ashamed. Steal my cherry kiss and don’t know my name. Underneath the bridge I run to hide. Who will be with me in the fire and sea, forever.
In love
Love
I’ll be awake all day I’ll stay
In love
If you want to know my name then ask. I am not afraid of the stones in my past. Underneath the Peach Tree I’ll stand tall. Our accusers will stand small. Our accusers will stand small. Forever.
In love
Love
I’ll be awake all day I’ll stay
In love
Who among the stars will speak for us?
In love
Love
I’ll be awake all day I’ll stay
In love

Kat Jones Nashville, Tennessee
Once in every while an artist comes around that is seemingly as fresh, bright, and delicious as an apple picked right off
the tree. Void of any obvious imperfection, unmarred by worm holes or lack of sunlight, the apple materializes with such beauty and vitality that one cannot suppress the urge to taste.
This apple is Kat Jones taste, you must.
