lyrics

Born during morning chapel so much damage to unravel
Picking out the sand n’ gravel I wish I could time-travel
Before the nursery through my family tree
I’d bring along my boxing gloves, righteous anger - toward love

Everything that’s lost will one day be found
Everything that’s living composted, turned around
Giving birth to flowers, melody and brand new song
Clean energy, fresh atmosphere, like ripples on a pond

Razzle, dazzle, frizzle, frazzle, swinging justice with a gavel
Inner-turmoil and battle I wish I could time-travel
Not to Galilee but through my family tree
I’d bring along my boxing gloves, righteous anger - toward love

I’d say, “Peace.” “In You.”
“unleash these burdens that have bound”
And together we’d sit.
Expelling we’d expound life to this breeding ground.
I’d say “There’s no need for performance.”
“You can sing a new refrain”
The curses have been broken over our family name.

Everything that’s lost will one day be found
And everything that’s living composted and turned around
Giving birth to flowers, melody and (brand new) song
Clean energy, fresh atmosphere
Like ripples on a / like ripples on a / like ripples on a pond

about

Good Saint Nathanael Kansas City, Missouri

A dance with shadows, doubts, brazen courage, blind faith, & the weight of life. This is broken gospel music scraped off of bloody floors & splintered church doors.

Take Out The Trash

The Pac-Away Dots exist in the cathartic space between plaintive indie rock, soul-bearing folk, blunt southern blues & jagged rock n' roll. Good Saint Nathanael
