  • Poster/Print + Digital Album

    This tatreez-inspired print symbolizing a mill wheel pays homage to Palestinian women, who have played an integral role in resisting the Israeli occupation. Tatreez — a centuries old artful embroidery technique with radical roots — is just one of the many tools they have utilized.

    This is a limited edition blockprint (one of 50)

    Each piece is hand printed onto archival paper (Rives BFK 280g cream 100% cotton), and will be signed and numbered.

    Due to the nature of hand printing, each piece has slight variations from each other and may vary slightly from the image pictured.

lyrics

I awoke to a dark
So Cold and so wrong
The kind where a shadow
Might feel it don't belong
Paint peeled in my ears
A prayer tried to form
But it dried as it died
On my once silver tongue
Alone I struggled
A mouth full of lead
A Murderous whisper
In every corner of my head
A strange type of malice
A cruel tenderness
That smiled as it rose
From the foot of my bed

Where there's a will they say
There must be a way
But I'm sorry babe
I'm sorry babe
Fear wins the day

So wrap your arms around me
Remind me if you can
Of mothers breast and swaddling
A soft open hand
Give me your grace
While I practice goodbye
Memorize patterns
Find truth in the lies
My first lessons
Were dark nursery rhymes
That came quickly
In fluttering blinks of an eye
My very first lesson
Tears falling in time
To a Viennese waltz
Under flickering lights

Where there's a will they say
There must be a way
But I'm sorry babe
I'm so sorry babe
Fear wins the day
