The Mirror
Oh no no I’m underhanded
In my old age start drinking brandy
What I have to do I have to do, couldn’t be clearer
And if you know me still, you know I couldn’t kill
The mirror
Hey, I’ve been working so late at the door of a bar
Listening to Robyn and watching you dance
What you have to do you have to do, couldn’t be clearer
And if you love me still, I’ll know you couldn’t kill
The mirror
Oh the mirror
Hell ya know I’ll live a thousand lives anyway
Help me kill the first person in everything I say
There’s a love inside my empire of fear
I’m timing myself, I’m timing myself in the mirror
Now I’m acid free, I put the heart down
My hundred-page sketchbook weighs sixty-five pounds
When I call to you I call to you, my voice is so weird
And if you answer still, I’ll know we couldn’t kill
The mirror
Oh the mirror

Horse Race
My lover is a horse race
I’m betting six-to-one
On the rider who won’t place
I know she’s the one
My lover is a sunny day
My lover is a coal mine
The canaries of your heart
Fly right next to mine
And when I see your face
I think I know you and all
In the middle of the day
I think I love you and oh
My heart is full of weeds oh no
My heart is full of beer oh no
My heart is full of all the wrong girls
All the wrong fears
Darling if I let you, could you take it from here
Take it or take it from here
My very own memories are junk
In my dreams I’m fun and carefree
In real life I’m a scarecrow American man
The murder’s coming for me
And when I see your face
Don’t think I know you at all
In the middle of the day
I think I love you and oh
My heart is full of weeds oh no
My heart is full of beer oh no
My heart is full of all the wrong girls
All the wrong fears
Darling if I let you, could you take it from here
Take it or take it from here
I’m on your side
Both your hands both your coasts
Holy mother holy ghost
Hallelujah shot right through ya
I don’t ever wanna lose ya
Take it or take it from here

Though Chasms' melancholy, dreamy music might be feather-light, it hits with emotional heft.

Flower Of Life [LP]
by Taleen Kali
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles.
