‘Had a strange nightmare’
‘The Door’ is a plaintive, macabre waltz taken from Louisville songwriter Jack Keyes’ new record ‘Safely Graze, Lost Sheep!’
The record explores the undeniable beauty of existence with constant undertones of melancholy. Delicately brushed drums provide the backbone for this single that is centeres around intimate guitar strumming. Keyes’ lyrics are deeply personal and reflective without sacrificing poetry or imagery –
‘When I learned to breathe / I fogged up the window / Lost my baby teeth / Now my gums feel hollow / And your porch light’s on’
