A Hole Exactly Four Inches Deep Containing The Locket My Mother Wore

from Hiraeth by Mailto

/

about

The third track of my sophomore album, Hiraeth.

This one was brutal to finish, honestly. There were a few points where I considered cutting it or even scrapping the album completely because figuring out how to achieve my vision was SO brutal, but now that it's finished I'm so fucking glad I worked through it because I completely love this song.

lyrics

[Chorus]

Oh tell me
I'm not the one that's one that's hurting you
Please tell me
I'm not the one that's one that's hurting you (x2)

[Bridge]

Doo doo doododod odoooddo

I say doo a lot

[Chorus]

Oh tell me
I'm not the one that's one that's hurting you
Please tell me
I'm not the one that's one that's hurting you (x2)

[Breakdown]

My eyes close as the screen fades to black
Fingers slide against fragmented glass
I thought you would know you can't
Walk past a pain like this

Mailto Nashville, Tennessee

Hey, I'm Asher, or Mailto. I make music I guess. I like pretending to be a human on the internet. When I turn off the computer I leave and go be a coyote in the wild. The life.
