Still on the ground, friends in the trees
Wrapped in a blanket - wet, comforting
It can't be said twice more than was said before
Dream of a payout, dream of the final score
It's the big bad wolf in the summer
In the height of parties and distractions
It’s the big bad wolf, keeps you drunk in the street , not taking care of your shit
It's the big bad wolf in the autumn
That first shiver, stoned colors drop and fade
I'm the big bad wolf when I want to be, always subconsciously, never a good thing
Babe in the woods, lost and full of apology
Clinging to apathy, hoping for more…
Trying so hard in something so impossible
Looking for light in every corner and hole
What holds it back, keeps it unseen?
Keeps it a "kind of", keeps it a dream
Work for happiness in your daily routine
Fine line to balance attention with inner peace
It's the big bad wolf in the winter
Keeps the draft so cold in your black hole cave
It’s the big bad wolf in the snow that keeps you all alone, downhill, broken old sled
It's the big bad wolf in the springtime
That deceptive rebirth, another break
Give yourself more time when it gets nice - excuses come easy and then comes the rain
I'm the big bad wolf in the corner
Creeps into my bed, keeps me wide awake
Yeah I'm the big bad wolf when I want to be
Always subconsciously, never a good thing

So delighted that Angel is finding that "hard won acceptance" that she sought and hope that her future path is one of authenticity. This work is one marked by melodious but not overwrought emotion, striking an intuitive balance of warmth and skill. hailhumanists
Stark, folk-derived songs built on brittle acoustic guitars that conjure the image of a fire burning in the distance on a dark night. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 8, 2022
Maybe the best thing David ever did, which makes me extremely sad. A Jews record in all but name, but more direct in its lyricism without losing that indescribable feeling, that beauty and sorrow and lighthearted sarcasm all rolled into one profound set of lyrics that are David Berman. Not to mention the band playing on the record is probably the best Berman ever recorded with. Rest in Peace DCB. jack_thorn16
