Preacher’s Daughter

Televangelism

Indie singer-songwriter verses with ethereal touches and electronic instrumental choruses. Contemplative, nostalgic, spots of melancholy, and a bit of heat in the instrumental breakdowns. There are more songs related to this one in the works, including an instrumental that builds on the chorus material.

LYRICS:
Living here today on a road they'll never pave
It's a shame, there's a glimmer
There's a glimmer!
Turn around before it fades... too late

I hear it had a name and they sold that yesterday
It's ok, or not ok
But the river is muddier today
And those glimmers glow ever dimmer by the day
By the day

Waking up today a willing castaway
Puts a finger toward a glimmer
And it's brilliant for an instant then it fades
I swear

Gazing at some dirt, a hush floats in then bursts
And a million screaming shadows form a picture
that will soon go up in flames
Watch it closely as it decays
Disintegrates

Up there around the bend, a graveyard full of friends
No one tends golden patches
And the cabin is overrun with copperhead snakes

So shall we cross the golden meadow?
We'll go together now

And Those Glimmers (Prototype)
