lyrics

I was away for the weekend
How did I not hear?
His rage will start the war again
Shoved it right down their throats
And now, what's left is blinding me

Oh one side has the song
One side has the fear
Oh and it's plain to see
One side's got the flare

mmm

Well I was away for the weekend
How did I not hear
He took me by surprise back then
He riles them up and cuts with the word
And now nothing stirs me deep

Oh how are we to move?
How do we stay still?
Because it's plain to see
One side's here to kill

mmm

One side's here to kill
One side's here to

Away From Home
by Julianna Zachariou

We saw Julianna Zachariou for the first time when she was playing guitar for Caroline Kingsbury in NY. Julianna's solo work is beautifully written and produced and feels real, and intentional. The Rayes

Often known from Big Thief, Adrianne creates absolute masterpieces in the form of song. Like a Michelangelo sculpture, her music is comprised of soft details, but extremely powerful as a whole. The Rayes
