about

Chaparral was performed, recorded, and filmed at Bird & Egg Recording Studios in Richmond, CA on May 31, 2021.

lyrics

Circling
Birdseye view looking down over the serpentine prairie
Like wind through leaves…
Rattling brush and creaking hinges of the redwood trees

I'm here with you

Burying
Burrowed deep under the ground where there is no sunlight to reach
I am laurel seeds
Waiting for heat to sprout from the ashes the wildfires leave

I burn bright blue
I'm here with you

Weathering
Eroding away the mistakes that we carved in mahogany
Endanger me
Save me from destroying the beauty from inside this desert dream

I split in two
I burn bright blue
I'm here with you

In this arid sun
I am an empty well
But underneath the ground
I am chaparral

Circling, circling, circling, circling
Yea I am in bloom, I split in two
Now I burn bright blue, I'm here with you.
