    Kassi, if you didn't know - there's a huge following of your blessing here in the Appalachian mountains. Please bless us with your beautiful presence and voice soon. Even if I was the only person in the audience, I'd make sure you get the crowd you deserve. You're so loved, don't ever change.

    Her voice just hits without warning - utterly crystal clear. What an incredible singer! And the cut-back simplicity of the guitar picking is the perfect accompaniment. Just spectacular.

    Dang Kassi's voice is amazing. I've never heard anyone else that sounds like her and it's amazing.
    This and Johnny Dear are stunningly beautiful with their slightly doleful undertones.. Love it.
    It's so nice to hear a song that resonates on a soulful level.
    She's like a mid-western, wholesome-sounding, classy Lana Del Rey or something.
    Edit: Two years after this silly comment I happened to live somewhere she was gonna sing. I paid like $25 for a ticket, she and her bandmates were fantastic in person! You should absolutely buy a ticket and see her if you get the chance. Highly recommend.

    Lovely, always a joy to see her performing. Simple yet impressive.
    Chords and lyrics below folks, not 100% sure about the lyrics though, correct me if I may be wrong.
    Capo on 3, Standard tuning
    G6 320000
    Verses G6 C / C G6 / G6 C / C G6
    Chorus G6 Am G6 / G6 Am G6
    [Verse 1]
    Some awful rapture of noise held you captured and broke my stare
    You said it came from there up there on the stairs
    No more than a second that mystery backing your feet to climb
    While I stayed behind I held worry on my mind
    [Chorus]
    You don't know how fire works, it burns too slow, you'll lose it
    You don't know how fire works, it dies until you feed it
    [Verse 2]
    You dug through the floorboards for some kind of folklore you'd heard before
    The newspaper was torn and the match burned bright
    How I couldn't fathom this loose hanging phantom your fingers wore
    So yellow in hue, it was nothing I knew
    [Chorus]
    You don't know how fire works, it burns too slow, you'll lose it
    You don't know how fire works, it dies until you feed it
    [Verse 3]
    You laugh at my temper, your eyes like december so cold and blue
    You were smiling, too, I was jealous of you
    Still to this day you've been lied in your way with the pages you burn
    While others read theirs first, see how bright you can shine
    [Chorus]
    You don't know how fire works, it burns too slow, you'll lose it
    You don't know how fire works, it dies until you feed it
    [Verse 4]
    Comes some long evening when these embers go leaving me bitter and cold
    We'll watch our bodies grow old, you'll hear me whisper "you were right"
    You laugh at my sorrow, so empty and hollw, I was such a fool
    That I knew better than you making up all those rules
    [Chorus]
    You don't know how fire works, it burns too slow, you'll lose it
    You don't know how fire works, it dies until you feed it

    I'm so sad her album didn't capture that. I listen to these video's a lot. But then I turn to the record and, idk I think the producers just couldn't or didn't dare to just let it be honest and naked.
