about
music + lyrics by Nancy Gardos
lyrics
I went searching for a song
Like it was a babe out in the cold
I went looking in the dark
Searching for a spark til my knees got raw
Habit forming
Gutless and groaning
Why not ham this thing up for the page
Hailstorm sunrise
Straight laced or despised
Join in the reverie
I must be lost
In reverie
I must be lost
In reverie
I must be
I went searching for a friend
Went driving without end
I know that sounds kinda dumb
Esoterically defined, the way is what I’ll find
Or else I’ll just pretend
Habit forming
Heartless and moaning
Why not ham this thing up for the stage
Black white red brown
Pointless to argue what you get is what you see
I must be lost
In reverie
I must be lost
In reverie
I must be
Oh to be the wild romantic, “the ghost of all her dreams”
She wants a cowboy with a swagger
Who makes the young girls scream
Whoo hoo
whoo hoo
whoo hoo hoooooo
I went searching for a sign
Like it’s aching to design a “wild gift” that’s meant for me
Standing hopeless in the shade
The plans that we have made may just be bought and sold for free
Jackknife big dive
Expose what’s inside
Join in the reverie
I must be lost
In reverie
I must be lost
In reverie
I must be

Portland's Dao Strom describes her work as "song poems," gorgeously layered dark ambient folk soundscapes with a heavy sense of foreboding. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 6, 2020
