Holiday weekends are a great litmus test for the state of otherwise ambiguous things.

Her daddy said I ain’t nothing good
Make the wheels turn, like a gypsy should
And I’ll tear you down, if I see your face again!
I pack the truck for Abilene
The road ain’t straight and it’s pretty mean
But there’s something out there for boys who ain’t got nothing

I don’t mind
Not having your pretty hand to hold
Or seeing your face at all my shows
I don’t mind
Talking to the girls at the bar
Not wondering where the hell you are
I don’t mind

Take some time before you go
Think of Monday’s coming down
And the people that you knew
The ones that aren’t around
You’ve been fading day to day
I’ve been moving town to town

I hear “time casts its spell on you,”
And i can’t follow you i wont follow you around
Broken i’ve seen what love can do
Holding out for someone and your heart gets hollowed out.

And I reckon it’s been on your mind
If i’m doing good

Trees have fingers
That may steal the earth from me
Why may I not go play out in the barn?
The barn hand may take you,
and drown you in the tar

Daniel Norgren‘s artistry is a psychedelic tapestry woven from the threads of the American South and the mystic spirits of his Nordic homeland. Like a modern-day shaman, he channels the ghosts of past legends such as Howlin’ Wolf and Bob Dylan, infusing their soulful essence with an ethereal Nordic touch. His voice is a raw, guttural howl that transcends linguistic barriers.

It doesn’t help
But it doesn’t hurt
Not like it used to

The Grisly Hand, from Kansas City, in Missouri.

Why are you leavin’ like we don’t exist
Yeah why are you leavin’ like we don’t exist
You’re packing your bags and I clench my fist
So why are you leavin’ like we don’t exist
