DARKSIDE - 'PAPER TRAILS' [PSYCHIC, 2013]

“What do I look like to you?
What did you want me to be?”

"Where are you when I need you?
Where did you go?
How can I find you when I need to?
Where should I go?"


While Jaar leans closer to creature comforts, lyrically composing a Van Gogh-replica of a wooden house ("A wooden house to live in") on a mountain paired with “fruit on the table” and “a baby to care for.”
In the end, both want fleeting pleasure to burn up in flames, cued by the “fire outside/ it’s burning up the place...”
