about

Original Spring

written in Brooklyn, NYC by Adelyn Strei
recorded in Minneapolis, MN with Mike Noyce
spring 2023

lyrics

I could forget
original spring, I offer
should he ever need me
I would respond with patience
with peace
I'm just killing time walking
through the city
tried to invent a place
I can see
underground I dream
in lilac

I can't give you what you need
why cant a heart beat perennially?
I confess I'm far from ready
but I could contain the seeds
I could contain the wings

it's all still alive
original spring
I run five miles on psilocybin
around a cemetery
I pick up speed
thinking of the ways I have held
you under
my knife, carefully
whittling out dreams
to break off the branch of
disillusion

I can't give you what you need
why can't a heart beat perennially?
I confess I'm far from ready
but I could contain the seeds of spring
I could contain the wings of spring
I could contain the seeds of spring
I could contain the wings
