Lyrics
When the wind whispers strange, and day hastens its end
As the stones, they rearrange, and fearful make amends
On moonless night, hold close your kin,
Bar windows tight before, before she begins.
This the eve we sacrifice for survival through the year,
Dare not trust your eyes, for she sets alive,
She sets alive the skies
As the gleaming shimmers above, her song catches in your mind
Calls you with words of sweetest love, hide your thoughts
And pray that she won’t find you.
Hide, until you meet the dawn.
If you see the lights, you’ll soon know her price,
on moonless night.

Pacific Northwest native Octavia McAloon writes music that exists firmly in the middle ground of her two musical traditions - Folk and Choral. She is most interested in music that achieves something genuinely new for its genre. This love of choral music manifests itself in her songwriting with use of intricately woven vocal harmonies and as a texture that builds the foundation of her music.
