Clouds Of Grass

from Sleepless Summers by Joseph Hall

  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Receive a stunning physical copy of Sleepless Summers. Currently selling the first editions ever! The artwork by Aja Trier is breath taking in print AND comes with a STICKER as well as a hand-written note from Joe.

    Composed between 2008 and 2019, these songs all came about from the same general manner: lost Winter nights to depression, self-loathing or drug addiction with the occasional idea that would take root until Summer time could sprout it from darkness. In ways this is a literal metaphor, as many times this album took a backseat as I searched for seasonal inspiration. But I encourage you to take this album track by track as a metaphor for your own growth and struggle through the Winters.

lyrics

I said I'm sorry to the moonlit sky,
it's all a pattern that repeats in my mind.
One day I'm fine but then the next completely different when I...
When I know that far away the sun still shines.
I can see it's shadow in the darkness of my eyes.
I chose my path I burned my tracks.

The demons always smile in the moonlight,
sweetly whisper "have no fright!"
The time soon swells my riddled thoughts and brings me back to you,
so we can start again, oh!
It's all a pattern I can't stop it in my mind,
the day I fell for you I feel I fell so far behind.
So I...
So I keep on running down these same old lines.
Started off so well but it was only the one time.
I lost my faith I lost my mind.

I'm striking matches as the ashes and the rain come pouring down,
all around,
and now you know the story of the storm.
The rain falls constantly, as bitterly I lie
inside the gutter as I think of what remains of my mind.
Falls constantly as bitterly I lie...

I know that far away the suns still shining on the ground,
I'm etching out my words because my screams don't make a sound,
I chose my path, I burned my tracks,
the demons always smile in the moonlight.
Sweetly whisper "have no fright!"
The memories creep into me, to bring me back to you..
so we can start again.
