I am in awe at her creativity, that she is so attuned to her internal states and feelings, to make that connection between sleep paralysis and the severing of a romantic relationship, that comparison of feeling separated from yourself, and separated from another person, who made you feel part of a whole. That is genius.

Her fingerpicking is next level - shit will drive you crazy learning her songs. A very nuanced way of fingerpicking / selection of intervals

What a dream that was
I almost couldn't wake because
I was frozen in bed with a zombie girl
Vacant as a closed down fair
Sleep paralysis, I sworn I could've felt you there
And I almost could've kissed your hair
But the emptiness withdrew me
From any kind of wishful prayer
Oh, emptiness
Tell me 'bout your nature
Maybe I've been getting you wrong
I cover you with questions
Cover you with explanations
Cover you with music
Then the next night
Dreaming I could feel your skin
But the dream escaped so easily
And I wokе up to the road again
How your words ring through
Something kinda sweet and blue
And I knеw that you'd been understanding
Everything that I'd said, too
About emptiness
Tell me 'bout your nature
Maybe I've been getting you wrong
I cover you with questions
Cover you with explanations
Cover you with music
What's on your mind?
What's on your mind?
What's on your mind?
What's on your mind?
On your mind

[@BustaSirio]

La guitarra, la voz, las expresiones, es hipnotizante
