My Mind Became My Home Lyrics


White walls shimmer tall and wide
Spotless spires from on high
Flawless features carved in white
Blinding light cleansed my eyes
From my birth the truth was plain
With pure heart life on earth was pain
Repulsed by everything I saw
My mind became my home
In the hollow tree I cried
Cradled in your angel arms
Perfect prisms I imposed
Upon your childish brow
Abra you are my true love
The only girl I can see
All through life you’ll walk with me
In death we’ll meet our Maker

From my birth the truth was plain
With a pure heart life on earth was pain
Repulsed by everything I saw
My mind became my home
Strong of arms and swift of mind
My brother watched over me
Silent and still my father roamed
The farm grew wild and free
One day I met my lost mother
It filled my soul with blackened smoke
The world had lost all light for me
So I packed my bags to fight
Off to war I went to die
River Jordan flood this world
May water cover every stone
Till perfect stillness fills the air
And peace may find a home

After seven years of touring and writing with Nashville based outfit The War, Daniel Levi Goans recorded Choice Cannonballs in the heat and humidity of a North Carolina summer in the very basement where he discovered his love for playing music as a child. His early explorations of the piano evolved into an attempt to capture the rich tradition of American folk. The songs are stripped down tributes to the folk storytelling tradition with sparse soundscapes that evoke the feverish density of the summer in which it was recorded.
