Nesting

from Chemical Exchange by Arlow Xan

  • Streaming + Download

    Nesting: An audio launch appropriate for the first track of the first album. Steady display from the Dr. Gnome and roots rock guitar sound set the scene. Ali's vocal performance is that of a captain of a tree fort exposing all heights of existence to her people, and the advancing riffs come to their end with Ali's steaming organ bellowing out at the song's closing stage.

lyrics

Hello there human child
Hello there baby girl,
I love your giving smile
Come play as queen with a crown of leaves

Climb on my every limb
Go hide and I will find
See atop of tall mountains
Come nibble on my innocence

Oh, live off of me
Oh, live off of me

Sleep in my endless shade
Wrap your arms around my legs
Love as I love always
I’ll give to you my happiness

Your growth foreshadows change
And I love you without blame
Melancholy is the current phase
Your far in site but strong in mind

Oh, live off of me
Oh, live off of me

I see your older now
I’ll speak by whispering
Make a home in this canopy
Stream away to the open sea

Fragile base and a fragile heart
Your body has been aged with marks
Sit down and we will be
As the one I knew and the two we need

Oh, Live off of me
Oh, Live off of me
