A denseness cloaked our bedroom with curtains drawn and our eyes closed my nose to your dripping nose as the scream of the steaming heater grows In your hands I found a tranquil solidity a way to realize stability and in your eyes a mystery I thought unparalleled a coldness in the darkness of your pupils as they swelled You hold the light, the light the covers pulled up to your nose you're cold, your eyes your eyes are covered how can I hold you when there's nothing left to hold? In your hands I found a thoughtful stillness a way to forget the recent bouts of illness in your eyes I found a perfect, feral citadel I was curled up, damp, and aimless at the bottom of a well You block the light, the light you cover the only source of warmth I know now cold and curled, I'll hold no other how can I hold you when there's nothing left to hold? You block your light, your light you cover the only source of warmth I know now cold and curled, I'll hold no other Who will hold you when there's nothing left to hold?

it's like there's candy on your lips and then the way you move your legs toward me slow it's what I do not show that makes you want to know I am not fearful in your dreams more like a papa bear who's left on his own he never meets his baby but he probably wouldn't want to they leave when he is sleeping I wake up all alone I wish another year was gone you wish you didn't live at home anymore when no one is around us everything is dreamy but you do not remember when I used to not be me and I cannot remember if you were ever you

about

Walk Away From Me is a three-way split between Bellows, Small Wonder and Ó. The album was recorded between February and April 2013 and is a flagship for the recent move of the three artists from their childhood home of New York City to Chicago, IL. Henry (Small Wonder) came up with the idea of three bands from the same scene covering Lou Reed, David Bowie and Iggy Pop, as a tribute to three bands who each transplanted from their hometowns to live and work in Berlin in the late 1970's. Walk Away From Me begins with three covers -- Small Wonder introduces the album with The Velvet Underground song "Candy Says". Bellows covers the David Bowie song "Soul Love", and Ó covers Iggy Pop's "Tonight".
The second half of the split is made up of original songs by each of the three bands, "Well", written as a reaction to "Tonight" by Ó, "Papa Bear", a woodsy electro-ballad by Bellows, and "Wood for the Fire", a song of bodylessness and anxious peace.
