[Context] [Clarification] [Captivity] [Continued Love]

Excerpted from Marissa Nadler's New Radiations 'Weightless Above The Water'

You don’t think about the danger, the bluest of the blues
I’m way out of range here, but closer to the moon
They forbade me from trying again and again
Had no fear of dying in flames of crimson

The sun would rise, it all turned black
I left it all behind, but I’ve lost contact tonight

Was ready for flying without coming back
I saw the horizon
The sun would rise, it all turned black
I left it all behind, but I’ve lost contact tonight

I was the first to leave because I had no means to stay, my Love, not because I was angry or had given up.

Then came 'High On A Rocky Ledge' and Patreon and 'Whispering Pines' and tour '23...

and so on.

Come to me, my Beloved
