STARS 03:14
When you dream do you dream of a house by the sea? When you sneak out do you run to neon signs that promise fun? Or when you see a boy in town do you hope to lend a hand in settling down? Or do you wish for a horse, ‘cause a girl in 1980’s Mississippi it’s a matter of course? Take off your shoes feel the earth, is this ground beneath our feet really all you’re worth? Oh I don’t know But if you meet me after dark I may have something to show Burn out like stars in the night sky shooting through the moonlight Burning two eyes in a warm flow Everything below Stars

GLOW 03:48
They stare us in the back There’s something that we lack It’s on now, It’s on now She whispers in my ear, says Man get out of here, you’re burden, you’re burden We just got off a flight Was hoping for a night of forgetting, Forget it, We’re gone Wake from your sleeve Brace the line We leave Wait for the blow Stop the lights We glow They sit us in the back We drink the applejack It’s gone now, It’s gone now You kiss me on the mouth Say Man keep watching out You’re burning, you’re burning I’m not feeling right We always cross the line I’m going, I’m going, I’m gone Wake From your sleeve Brace the line We leave Wait For the blow Stop the lights We glow

GRIND 02:22
I’ve been staring hard at you, watching everything you do It seems like I’m always in the wrong place It’s tearing you up inside Every night is such a fight Always in the morning it’s the long face So let’s remember that first September When you tied me up in a string of violent lovely binds Take this moment Don’t leave us in the open In the Grind Down Let us find out In the Grind Down Do our hands still find us in the binds now?

NIGHT 05:47
Tell me what you want from me Anything you want to see Face the fact we can’t deny Love is fusion with the night Tell them how you wanted me Fifteen years so breathlessly Now I’m made from part of you We’re gonna need to see this through now Tell me if you wanna run away I’ll let you go Tell me if you wanna turn and stay I’ll bellicose Tell me if you want it tell me if you need it Tell me if its time to find the very thing you despise A beautiful house of lies We never see the sun, do we, child? We’re always in the dark hiding out We watch as every beam is falling down We’ll never make it out (of this alive) Bleeding out and left to die Chosen sides and it’s not mine What am I supposed to do? Come back and destroy you too? Tell him watch his back for me Fifteen minute fame is free Got you captive in his light Nothing left to do but fight Tell me if you wanna run away I’ll let you go Tell me if you wanna turn and stay I’ll bellicose Tell me if you want it tell me if you need it Tell me if its time to find the best work of our lives A beautiful house of lies We never see the sun, do we, child? We’re always in the dark hiding out We watch as every beam is falling down We’ll never make it out (of this alive)

WRECKAGE 05:48
It’s not enough to touch her gently whisper in her ear It’s not enough to tell him that you’ve loved him all your life It’s not enough to shelter them through perils of the night Scavenging the Wreckage It’s not enough to clean up all the mess they left behind It’s not enough to wash their wounds do makeup for the wake It’s not enough to pray to heaven seven times a day Scavenging the Wreckage Without love none of this matters Without love nothing matters

HUSH 05:25

about

The story of love or something like it. A chronology. Birth–>Life–>Death–>Rebirth. A domestic opera. A chiasm. [Oops. SPOILERS!] Originally written and self-recorded in stolen moments at home over the course of three years BINDS is Jamison Wake's narrative––sonically and lyrically––of a powerful relationship between two lovers from first blush to final hush.

In order to complete the album to the quality it called for Jamison brought in friend Jeremy McDonald (Beyonce, Kevin Garrett) of Mason Jar Music. They recruited guitarist Chris Parker, drummer Mike Riddleberger (Bleachers), and Grammy award-winning mixer Will Hensley. It sounds real nice now. As it should. BINDS is Jamison Wake's debut album.
