lyrics

Josh had made a model of a crucifixion scene
with all his Gi. Joes in desert clothes instead
of playful green.

All their plastic knees were knocking
as the savior bled upon a tree of matchstick
branches paper thorns upon his head.

When Josh's mom got home from work
she stared in disbelief at how her son
could make a sacrilegious game of all this grief,

but Josh looked up with weary eyes
his face was burning red and he gazed into
his mother's stare with sadness as he said

"It is gone.
I know. Sold for nothing.
I let it go,
and I have lost my childhood to the depths of faithless days.
I want it back now. I want a grace."

about

ithica Tulsa, Oklahoma

"Ithica presents a sprawling sonic dream scape of shimmering electro-pop that recalls M83, The Postal Service and TV on the Radio. It’s an ambitious blend of electronica and organic instrumentation that’s ethereal, emotional... It’s pop on a grand scale, but it still manages to retain the intimacy of a folk artist’s labor of love."
