high speed chase down the 101 suitcases packed you don a suit of black and you show me how to hold a gun barreling down south with the western setting sun dusky mountain skyline as we leave san francisco in the dust haven't caught your name yet but it's in you you say i should put my trust i conjure some idea of just what line of work you could possibly be in oo you take me to your hideout in the palisade winds oo you say you just don't know where to begin

Cary 02:22
as the candles loose their edge Cary lend me your chest I was hired to put this thing to rest as the clock ticks out of time Cary know that you're mine i was hired to take away this time your smile as I instigate our little charade I've never seen you smile at a fellow con that way as the keys fall out of tune Cary watch as I bloom I was hired to take you from this room And I will wait at the wings as you go on and do your thing I'm not as sure as you think As the gold rush rusts to lead Cary take me to your bed

Fly 02:59
Fly me out I won't sleep the night before and I'm guessing not much has changed or everything all at once you're out getting baked in Central LA I'm up freezing dying a slow decay by the way I haven't an ounce of motivation left now to create Take me down the freeway we're invisible now don't delay 10 more sets straight I wouldn't let this out of my arms couldn't put it on the page unless I move out there to LA we'll never know what is real until we make it west of the great lakes I'll move out there to LA we'll never know what is real until we make it west of the great planes we won't know what it feels like to relate on a whole other wavelength

I always pictured myself living in the country Pack of wolves as dogs at my door You can lead a horse to water but you can't make her yours I had my pick of horses Until that mare stared me down Wild wind and mud on our courses Never enough to slow us down As we preside across the prairie Holding out for rain Then come the babies you and I must raise On our own Holding out for rain Walking with a horse in tow Is like wandering When you're turning out and turning in for the night You won't be alone with the moon and mares by your side We wake up one day and wean the babies And send them off on their own I would chose you as my lady Lady and I On our way up into the sky Higher and higher

I haven’t been myself in years now I hate to think that I have let me down Sliding on tracks of my own tears now If I could finish just one goddamn song It wouldn’t take long before the whole thing derails In delight sheltered from the hail Ain’t it a life of foolish hunger You twist your own arm just to feel the burn And when he’s wrapped around you for the meantime You drift into a thoughtless dream of fight You know it by the sight of your efforts growing pale On a night drenched in bitter ale Was it a crack of lightless thunder that pulls you from a weightless imagery When you find yourself you wonder Do you wake him just to tell him what you’ve seen You know it’s just a dream but what really does that mean Just a dream oh, what can it mean

Home 04:32
Home is where I don't belong ribbons wrapped around my eyes so I can't see where I'm going Is it on this line Is it straight or does it wind Home is where I don't belong Shadows wrap the corners of all that's wrong Wring me out like a paper doll Full of tears and alcohol Home is where I don't belong Shadows wrap the corners of all that's wrong Wrap me up like a little child I've never felt so wild

Hemma Minneapolis, Minnesota

Hemma comes from a family of singers, carving her own path for the last decade as a budding balladeer. Sometimes with a full band, many times a soloist, Hemma captivates the audience as she paints with a pastoral brush of old and embellishes with modern drum machine magic.
