LOVER I BUILT US A THRONE
Woke up in your bed
Mountains of pillows had grown
I tied the sheets with copper thread
Lover, I built us a throne

I want to begin, down to the feel and down to the color
Don’t wait for me to kiss you in the morning when you’re half asleep

Honey I want to get tangled up
Maybe you and I could fall in love
I don’t want to wait but I don’t want to rush
I think I love you, I love you, I love you

We memorized the history 
Of ancient Greece and ancient Rome
And while you practiced their dances
My king, I knit you a robe

I want to begin, down to the feel and down to the color
Don’t wait for me to kiss you in the morning when you’re half asleep
‘Cause I want to begin again 

Honey I want to get tangled up
Maybe you and I could fall in love
I don’t want to wait but I don’t want to rush
I think I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

Somewhere in the forest I built a tower
Far behind the pines, stacked bricks and flowers
I’d forgotten my truth I had nothing to prove

Honey all I want do is tangled up
Maybe you and I could fall in love
I don’t want to wait but I don’t want to rush
I love you, I love you, I love you
I love you, I love you, I love you

Sometimes, the greatest ideas spring from the subconscious, fully formed. Such is the case with CLARA-NOVA, a name and concept that struck its creator, Sydney Wayser, in a dream. Musical exploration had already pushed the Los Angeles native onto a pantheon of Franco-American influences, from Edith Piaf, Jacques Brel and Charlotte Gainsbourg to John Lennon and Jeff Buckley. Now, her inventive songs swim to new depths in a mix of pastoral pleasures and urban grit—a sonic landscape of organic and electronic sounds. “Let me count the ways that you haunt me,” she sings on “Electric,” synths and strums swirling around her. “Let me count the ways that you stop me in my tracks attacking every part of me / you woke me up when the storm came and it’ll never be the same again.” Pulling inspiration from deep sea dance parties, ancient Egyptian ritual and Martian folklore, the upcoming CLARA-NOVA EP sets forth an otherworldly sound, grounded in the earthy intensities of the human experience. “I drank a handful of water from a black well,” Wayser sings on “Isis.” “Been painting my life and it’s not only golden / I’ve been humbled.”
