Listen to the New Song "D-Minor"
Our boy, Aaron Weiss, has been known to revisit his own lyrics and themes from time to time, re-working those old ideas into new songs, creating sequels and, on one occasion, a prequel. This device (admittedly stolen from Neutral Milk Hotel) has become a fan-favorite, and the motif continues on Pale Horses with "D-Minor," the sequel to the Brother, Sister track "C-Minor." In "D-Minor" Aaron once again explores how his sexuality and beliefs are intertwined, this time trying to reconcile his monastic ideals and disillusioned romanticism with his new marriage.
A borrowed fern w/ a cigarette burn & a pawn shop ring in her hand
at the Idaho courts to affirm our divorce before the marriage began
in a celery boat singing triangle notes to a horn from the military band,
the spectreworks c/o Pepper & Dircks’ Bargain Ghost and Haunted Man
We awkwardly shielded the curious eyes of innocent pines from the forest floor
From the frying pan of a celibate man to the fires of the premature
who could ask for nothing more?
we’re a unshrunk patch on a tear of the edge (x2)
we’re a campaign badge, the short-lived match
of an unshrunk patch and the bellows’ edge
on the iron lungs of our language
A by-now acquired fern with a cigarette burn
in a basket with a (rectangle) note on the bedroom floor:
They repaired my fence, those bastards,
I can’t go back home no more save a roundabout way
unto each day is sufficient misfortune thereof
with which to spend in proportion to your modest pay
while shopping around for a word like ‘love.’
Pale Horses is in stores and online 6-16. Pre-orders are available now.
