Once a band, now a solo project, Murmur Tooth is the songs of Leah Hinton. Sometimes dark, sometimes light, sometimes grimy, sometimes beautiful, not for elevators, not for dancing.
Murmur Tooth: A Belly Full
Murmur Tooth: A Belly Full Lyrics:
And we’ll wait, baited breath, baiting lines
Breathing in tounges and jumping to respond
Hook, lies and sinker
Just sink in and
I see the moon has pulled your face out of shape
A debt I’ll never collect
But what to do with all the faces when you give up
And all the things you’ve tasted are etched in your face
Writing lines under your eyes
Just line up and
I see the moon has pulled your face out of shape
A debt I’ll never collect
Throwing matches at the sky just to call in the fire
A belly full, a belly full
Turning sluggishly through time, molecules packed in tight
Multiply, multiply
Lay your mind down to sleep, leave it there buried deep
You won’t need it when you wake
Lift your head to the sky, just relax you’ll be fine
There won’t ever be a first time again.
