about

this track was for the garages album #14. ostensibly it's about tiana cash, a player who's been haunting other players, but mostly it's about how we try to push memories down, and even those long gone and processed can still burn us.

lyrics

we lost you in flame
all those years ago
you were gone too soon
we let you go

they quenched your hot coals
love, you deserved your rest
i thought i’d moved on
i tried my best...

phoenix, it’s over now
just rest your head
phoenix, your fire’s out
it’s time to stay dead

no just recompense
i’d made my peace with that
and when he was slain
i raised my glass

the embers inert
ashes gone cold and black
so why’s it still hurt?
the flame’s come roaring back

phoenix it’s over now
just rest your head
cash, your fire is out
it’s time to stay dead!

you left us for good
we lost you to flames
please don’t come back now
ash is all that remains

ooooh

phoenix it’s over now
just rest your head
tiana, your flame’s gone out
it’s time to stay dead.

about

going nowhere Campbell, California

going nowhere is the artist name of yana (it/they). yana is an enigma, even to itself, in both identity and in music. you can find its music here or as part of 'the garages', which they helped start.

it's a bit new to this whole music thing, but has built up too much momentum to stop now.
