lyrics
Heart over mind,
I’m seeing it clearly for the first time in my life:
The great mystery of impermanence.
Have you ever mastered a moment-
then just as you set all your plans on the table-
A light through your half-opened window
Reminds you, you’ll never know when,
Spring will bring magnolias?
In a way I’ve never felt freer:
I dance with my shadows, lean into my fears.
I can sit by a river and trust what I hear.
While I’m trying to be kinder, the world’s getting weird and
The roots and the leaves and the rocks and the flowers,
The mud on my fingers, the sound of the water
help me to remember
I am my own healer and
Maybe my softness is power--
I have power!
And isn’t it funny we still count the years
when we know well that time moves in all directions
Familiar and strange,
I’ll see the faces of change
Now I’m holding on to nothing again.
I’m holding on to nothing again.

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
