about

A Halloween surprise treat!

After 3 years of silence and solitude, I present to you this icy track about the desire for a sense of belonging. This song describes a feeling of non-existence and internal paralysis as a result of pandemic isolation, and sort of watching life pass you by. Thank you to all who have and continue to support my art; I thank you for seeing me. Happy Halloween 🖤 - Maxine Juno Sinclair

lyrics

shrill flowers wilt
after a transient cold spell
provoke a hardening of hearts
and swift shedding of skin

dancing shadows cruelly dancing
dressed in silver
on their way to the wake

my prayer to mercury

can you hear me?
i dissolve into
a stagnant image
frozen in time
waiting for your call

eyes made of evergreen
believed to be everlasting
soon shall they perish
dead eyes follow the silhouettes fading
escaping

it's a process

watching thick branches, rotting
scoffing
unruly laughter makes love with danger
laying still just like a painting
encased in silence

i dissolve into
a stagnant image
frozen in time
waiting for your call

hesitant fingers interlocking
memories, dead
still waltzing
behind smoke screens of glass
smashed
with clenched fists

my prayer to mercury

can you hear me?
i dissolve into
a stagnant image
frozen in time
waiting for your call

waiting for your call
it's a process, waiting for your call
watching thick branches, rotting
scoffing
unruly laughter makes love with danger
laying still just like a painting
encased in silence (waiting for your call)
watching thick branches, rotting
scoffing
unruly laughter makes love with danger (it's a process)
laying still just like a painting
encased in silence (waiting for your call)
