lyrics

Oh they love to watch you rise times move fast and mothers cry the fallin need someone in disguise
And all the years you pray to die the priest have come to give your rights so you can fly through the fields

Everyday I pray to keep my hands from going far away I do believe
Everyday I pray to keep my hands from going far away I do believe

All alone you went to ride, you laid down fast and lost your life, your visions from comas come true
Bound and chained upon this room where others go to die alone for thirty five years you were gold

Everyday I pray to keep my hands from going far away I do believe
Everyday I pray to keep my hands from going far away I do believe

Everyday I pray to keep my hands from going far away I do believe
Everyday I pray to keep my hands from going far away I do believe

about

Duquette Johnston Birmingham, Alabama

By his own admission Duquette Johnston has lived a "wild, incredible life," but even that might be underselling the three-act 25-year journey that's led to the Alabama musician's new album The Social Animals; out February 25 on Single Lock Records.

I've only owned this album for a day, but I can't get enough of it already. It's just so quiet, stunning, raw and moving. Reminds me of Nick Drake and Ryan Adams mixed in one. It's just incredible. Thank you jane willow

I'm way behind the curve on this. I thought M/L was to be a one-off project but now there's more? And it's even better than the first? YES!! J. Danner
