Mornings With Mx 113 - March 19, 2026

Never Faced the Light
The Miracle Syndicate

You arrived
like something I had almost forgotten
Your body
never quite faced the light
The air stayed still
long after you
went away

(If you’d asked…)
I wouldn’t have answered
(If you’d stayed…)
I wouldn’t have known

We left no mark,
only the flame
where breath
almost became a name.
Your coat still hangs,
but the body it knew
refused to be warm again.

No sound,
just a rhythm in the floor.
I think I heard you once,
or was that just the door?

(If you’d asked…)
I would’ve vanished,
vanished.
(If you’d stayed…)
I would have lied.

We had to part,
you left on a plane.
The death of us became my pain.

Your scent remains
from your body I knew.
I fade into your space
again.

Can you hear my
cry in the silent night?
Your quiet voice
never made it to the light.
My mind stayed still
long after you
went away.

(If you’d asked…)

My blind faith will
long after you
went away.

(If you’d asked…)
I wouldn’t answer.
(If you had stayed…)
I wouldn’t be here.

The Miracle Syndicate:
Founded and produced by Brad Astra

“Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight, and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices,
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open, and show riches
Ready to drop upon me; that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.”

Shakespeare, W. (2008). The Tempest. (A. Thompson & F. Kermode, Eds.). Arden Shakespeare. (Original work published 1611).

The Miracle Syndicate is an independent alternative music collective formed by Canadian producer and composer Brad Astra. Emerging from the outer edges of post-punk, dream pop, and shoegaze, the band’s sound fuses analog textures with emotional memory to create songs that feel both haunted and deliberate. Since its quiet inception, The Miracle Syndicate has grown into a global presence, with listeners drawn to its deeply personal recordings and cinematic tone.

All releases appear under Painful Records, an imprint dedicated to works that remain personal, patient, and present.

Painful Records stands for independence, integrity, and emotion in sound. What began as a small studio project has grown into a creative collective reaching listeners across continents.

Painful Records may incorporate AI-assisted tools within its production workflow. All creative decisions, composition, arrangement, and post-production are directed by the artists. We do not use AI to imitate other artists or voices. Every release is human-guided, emotionally intentional, and protected under applicable copyright law.

Canada Hill is a London-based indie rock trio blending grit, melody, and momentum. Formed in 2023, they’ve built a reputation for explosive live shows and tightly written originals recorded at their home studio. From the raw urgency of Cling to the punch of their latest single Hit!, Canada Hill channel post-punk bite, 2000s energy, and classic songwriting into something distinctly their own.
