from the LP "This Is My Hand" 
Available on CD /Vinyl / Digital 
September 16, 2014
from Asthmatic Kitty Records.

Lyrics:
mountain on top a fire below 
the pressure grows pressure
I feel the weight of a billion years 
come down on me come down
I tried to do it all right I went down down down
workin' hard little delight I forgot the sound of
diamonds

so bright I cannot hide 'em
so heavy I cannot mine 'em
all of this pressure's makin' diamonds
so wild I cannot tame 'em
so shiny I cannot name 'em
all of this pressure's makin' diamonds
disperse the white light

dancing on top the glitter glow
the pressure slows pressure
I feel the blade the cutting edge move out out out
I tried to do it all right I went down down down
workin' hard little delight I forgot the sound of
diamonds

pink purple green red yellow blue
I am in that mood indigo
pink purple green red yellow blue
I am in that mood for diamonds

BROKEN DREAMS

Some are young and some are old
Some just want a girl to hold
Some are kind and some are mean
They treat you like a trampoline
And some they want to save your soul

Dawns in motel rooms
Sunday mornings
Early June
Pills and alcohol
Lonely truck stops
Bathrooms stalls

Lovers come and lovers go
And life it passes by real slow
Then one day you wake to find
That you're no longer 29
Just an old girl on the stroll
