Unfortunate Paradise · Aug 17, 06:43 AM

An acoustic track, that features electric guitars and synth burbles. An Udu and an Ubang, looped. Egg shaker shooken, looped. A lyric fragment scrawled in a corner by a phone number, along with a few guitar chords… a sound, carried around unexpressed for decades. A feeling, maybe even a truth.

UNFORTUNATE PARADISE

Hose down the streets
Wash all the sheets
I’m leaving this
Most unfortunate paradise

Straighten the pleats
Time to blow away
Some old obsessions
Surrender some old possessions

Clean off my feet
Make sure the room is neat
I’m leaving this encroached paradise

I’ve lived inside a wall
Time to let it fall
I’m leaving this regrettable paradise
