lyrics

Went to the garden this morning
Couldn’t get enough of the heat
The heat used to drive me squirrely
Now it holds me

I had never wanted another
Better than I wanted him
I know I never give up easy

Isn’t it a wonder that there’s always something left behind
Even when you think there won’t be
And still I never think there will be

I was raised to believe that someone other than me knows what’s right
Even if it’s in my body

Now the garden defends me
In exchange for my tending
The feeling that I thought might kill me
Now it holds me

about

Linaire Montreal, Québec

Songwriting project of composer, singer and multi-instrumentalist, Anna Atkinson. Uncluttered electronic beats and ethereal synths combine with incandescent strings and poetically lucid lyrics to produce music that is at once spacious and full. Like plastic antiques, the songs feel both timeless and contemporary in their exploration of presence, anxiety, curiosity, lineage and identity. ... more

Sensations in Two Dot

This is the debut album of my dear friend and former fellow bandmate Rachael Cardiello's project Zinnia. The song Lupins drifts through my head at least once a week. Gentle, fierce, lilting. Linaire
