lyrics

IS THIS ALL IN THE DIVINE PLAN?
MA GAVE BIRTH IN A BROKEN DOWN VAN

I DON'T WANT TO LIVE, I DON'T WANT TO DIE
I'VE BEEN TOO AFRAID TO TAKE A STEP TOWARDS LIVING MY LIFE
IN BETWEEN THE FENCE
FROZEN IN DEFENSE
ETERNALLY PRESERVED IN CRYSTALLINE LIKE MISS HAVISHAM

OH, MY BROTHER
YOU'LL SOON BE A MAN
NEXT TO YOU I'M JUST A BOY
TRAPPED LIKE PETER PAN

I DON'T WANT TO LIVE, I DON'T WANT TO DIE
I KEEP A COLT 45 IN MY DRAWER
IF I CHANGE MY MIND
UNPREDICTABLE
SYRINGE AND SPOONFUL
EYES WERE BLAZING FIRE LIKE A DRAGON FROM THE UNDERWORLD

OH, MY FATHER
THE BEAST HAS BURNED YOUR LAND
GOLDEN SHEERS TO TEND THE FLOCK
CUT OFF YOUR RIGHT HAND

I DON'T WANT TO LIVE, I DON'T WANT TO DIE
I RULED OVER ALL THE LAND
WITH A SCEPTER IN MY MIND
POWER WAS MY GUEST
IN ABSOLUTE JEST
CHRISTOPHER ROBIN INFORMED ME RABBIT WAS A COMMON PEST

TERROR OF THE MIND WIPED ME OUT IN TIME
DEATH WAS AS PERSISTENT AS FRAU BLÜCHER IN ‘YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN’

OH, MY MOTHER
I'VE GOT NOTHING LEFT
SEND FOR ME TO GREET THE KING
AND TURN MYSELF IN

Angelo De Augustine Los Angeles, California

Arriving on the heels of 2021’s 'A Beginner’s Mind'—a collaboration with labelmate Sufjan Stevens—'Toil and Trouble' marks Angelo De Augustine’s first solo effort since his 2019 LP, 'Tomb.' His fourth solo LP exists according to its own quixotic logic, inhabiting a psychic landscape as sublimely mystifying as a fever dream or fairy tale. ... more
