Outro 01:00

If your body should ever leave your soul Remember that in me you have an example I lay my head upon a bed of stone Tugging on the tide so I'm not on my own Man on the moon Man on the moon Man on the moon Man on the moon I used to say I love to stay alone Now the lights are never bright when I get home A soul cannot be whole if only rogue Can a vagrant body be celestial? Man on the moon Man on the moon Man on the moon Man on the moon Man on the moon Man on the moon Man on the moon

Mumblin' 04:57
4.
Plastic 02:41
I know what it is to be broken and be bold Tell you that my silver is gold Though we're much too old for make believe And I know what it's like to behold and not be held Funny how a stomach unfed Seems satisfied cuz it's swell and swollen And you caught me Shootin' cross the sky like a star But nobody told me To never let it get too far You see my silhouette, so you're standing scared of me Can I tell you a secret? My wings are made of plastic, my wings are made of plastic My wings are made of plastic, my wings are made of plastic Oooh My wings are made of plastic, my wings are made of plastic My wings are made of plastic, my wings are made of plastic Plastic My wings are made of plastic, my wings are made of plastic My wings are made of plastic Oooh My wings are made up And so am I
5.
San Fran 04:17
You're chasing a daydream Just not your own I can't clip your grey wings You've found a home Sidle up the mountain Through this bay fog And I'll bridle paramount sin Through the smog Boat chained on the wharf now Anchored angst Oaths cannot be sworn now It's too late

about

Moses Sumney Asheville, North Carolina

Moses Sumney evades definition as an act of duty: technicolor self-directed videos and monochrome clothes; Art Rock and Black Classical; blowing into Fashion Weeks from a small town in North Carolina; seemingly infinite collaborators, but one staggering voice.
Consistent across the work is his assertion that the undefinable still exists and dwelling in it is an act of resistance.
