    "Trick of the Light" is Wooden Arms 2nd record released on the 6th of October 2017. "Trick of the Light" marks a very different sonic foot going in a very different tonal direction. Moving away from the acoustic, folk orientated melodies of the first album “Tide” and instead focusing on darker, more contemporary sounds.

lyrics

I watched your arms
like the roadmaps of England
Don’t say that word, don’t say that word
I was talking of fears
I should have heard
But you were speaking without moving
a lip or a line connected
at the seams turned inwards
these folded paper
wet cardboard dreams

I would watch shadows
of childhood demons come to scoop me up
Talon crack, bible black, oyster shell snap
and hoofs clatter on stained carpet
What was left
was weakened knees and a perpetual stutter

I was threadbare and needle deep
And lines of fabric seep into swollen flesh
Left lying on linen I was listless in the evening and restless in the morning
these sweat soaked sheets
an agony left between the pleats
and I fumbled through duvets
cavernous collected cottons to find some relief

And we’ll caw and claw, all night long
Linger let hang each note of the song
sung softly, but never sweetly
this taste is idle upon my tongue
too many fizzy drinks
that incandescent toothbrush balanced delicately on
the bathroom sink

I am lost in my own home.
