about

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

lyrics

The moment that I met you
I knew my life was changed
I loved you with pieces of myself
I never had to name
Oh my quiet it love
My wild love
We are the same
Come on now lay down with me
Lay down in the Shade

Life takes the shape...
Of what you care for everyday
My home was built inside your bones
And you kept me save
Til’ those wildfires
That rose higher were uncontained
Now I’m just ashes with you
Ashes in the Grave

You left behind a fabric
That covered all my pain
Woven in the nests of the
Stellar Jay

Was it a mistake…
Well it haunts me everyday
When you hold a life inside your hands
All they do is shake
Oh my July son
Your wild eyes were untamed
And now my grief grows with you
Even in the Shade
