William Leonard Dani Lee Pearce is a master of the off-kilter, the glitzy, the 5th chord synth, the cute rebellion, and the feeling of 'wow, this just works'. Like its creator, this is an album wholly unashamed of itself and its identity, as it paints a vivid, multifaceted image of a trans woman taking on life with confidence, love, and a little bit of magic. Favorite track: Let Me Remind You.
Duna Haller

Duna Haller One of the most powerfull and emotionally intense albums I've heard in my life. From relatable-dissociation themed with amazing instrumental and vocoder "Periwinkle Death" to indietronica hit "Dark Light Possition" to "Another Rain Song", a tender song that made me explode in tears for the luck of hear this pure artist soul showing, to the Genesis (Peter Gabriel era)-like tittle track. Lyrics about trans and anti-capitalism revolution, incredible progressive queer electronic pop. Favorite track: Another Rain Song.

What an ugly mess we stumbled into now Many of you have great discoveries to learn about and the sound of snapping chains shall be a new forever sound they say the tears of women, men and I can fall from any human eye don't you know what that even signifies what a pity that for all these years you've bathed yourselves in nothing but lies we come from 2284 to tell you that your struggles have a end and just what is in store is wholly good in fate just you wait just you wait just you wait just you wait just you wait just you wait just you wait just you wait We call ourselves the G.N.C for Gender Neutralized Committee the Gay N' Crafty Ones the Great New Circle of Life We can be anyone and anything and everyone and everything we came and saw and seized the day when they all swore to look away and erase us from existence in their cashmere minds and all we fought for came at last albeit much too late just you wait just you wait just you wait just you wait We call ourselves the G.N.C for Gender Neutralized Committee the Gay N' Crafty Ones the Great New Circle of Life We can be anyone and anything and everyone and everything Heartlessness incarnate stands high above you laughing now how did it get there anyhow It's been so long since we remembered being that lost somehow But you know that by our time, all of this evilness will die or we'll have taken it out in revolutionizing We chose believing in respect for those who never had respect before We are the living proof you seek that we will persist eternally we have the strength and courage we can never be buried in this soil for we all posess the calm heart of a seed that doesn't take the heart of any metal blade doesn't take the brooding pessimism of the casting shade we are crashing like a tidal wave a spirit rolling everglade

Let all the rain come down Let us all scream to the sky Let us all see the sun Let us all fly Throw my defensives down tearing my breast open wide showing in silence all things that are mine Let all the rain come down Let us all scream to the sky Let us all see the sun Let us all fly Throw my defensives down tearing my breast open wide showing in silence what for I will no longer die Let all the rain come down Let us all scream to the sky Let us all see the sun Let us all fly

I get a rise just by standing here and getting in your sight what a pest I must be it's so nice treading on thin ice me on yours and you on mine the ocean is my friend you'd just get oil on your end Even if you take my head and arms and body to melt down into your lead my legs will still be standing tattoo collection ever expanding overstanding my friends can make the lightning strike down upon you everywhere you try to run you'll be faced with the Trans Holy One everywhere you try to run you'll be faced with the Trans Holy One Why do you fear to gaze upon the breast of your lords why do you say they have a face you could die in could it be I am your lord and you must strike me down before I try ascending am I just that condescending I get a rise for you know that I can rise and decide to end your world at any time Would you even take my warning with a changed direction or would you walk right through my skin with no discretion everywhere you try to run you'll be faced with the Trans Holy One everywhere you try to run you'll be faced with the Trans Holy One

I fall to peices and slowly dry away but with a single heartbeat I come back and I am okay A sort of chaotic healing with the absence of feeling yet it could save a life to die a Periwinkle Death Having all the freedom of a peice of frozen time I use my own quite well I string my flowers on a quivering chime One get's a sample of that great mystery action and it seems that it could save a life to die a Periwinkle Death I know full well that this building's sure to fall on top of me But in my Periwinkle Death I'm invincable like I'm made of candy a simple fix to dodge the pain by folding up into the soul of pain a space I can make pure and wholesome just by being there someplace a lot less brighter maybe lighter take my low and bring in higher into a blackened fire weld and cough me out a fighter Disassociate and disappear but then I snap my fingers and it's like I never left here A sort of chaotic healing with the absence of feeling yet it could save a life to die a Periwinkle Death

It took time to get used to it all working my way through the new upgrades now I feel so much better candidly draped in my lava leather Since I left my home, I've felt the strange sensation of something tearing apart darling don't you know it's been so long how bout a little heart to heart I have been waiting for a long time I have been waiting for the right time to make my sweet discreet sixteen debut and be the absolute reign of the brain-dead prime time I can rule over monsters with a flash of the hips with every breath shooting up the chart darling don't you know it's been so long how bout a little heart to heart You will find I am hard to defeat make a move child I can't be beat I was made to be inside of your head and I can stay with you long after your past dead You make me shatter into little fragments I like how it's not my audience for a start darling don't you know it's been so long how bout a little heart to heart What are my ratings today your destruction will shoot me to the top so they say but just how can it be done every thing I try is not the right kind of fun I guess we'll have to do the grand unveiling Pray to yourself that you can play this part darling don't you know it's been so long how bout a little heart to heart darling don't you know it's been so long how bout a little heart to heart darling don't you know it's been so long how bout a little heart to heart Darling don't you know The coolest cat out up on the catwalk

Restless sleeping waltzes carving a rigid vision strange i watch as the moon leaves with no love left to give i watch as the spiders return, they know now is their prime i watch as the trees grow spikes and send a whisper call to the ocean Tomorrow I learn why is it that I can burn but leave no ashes behind Today I will be in the present I see for the first real time I Yesterday learned again how to be cleansed at least for the time and dreaming of Burning Pearls in the places that reach too high Come on now let's start the flooding of the wishing well let's watch our ugly reality crawl on out of its shell the blood they spill make their blood congeal into the fairest soil in the land and grinds into the skin tearing grains in the sand let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid you run so quickly grasping burning pearls that melt your hands The black death shoots into the sky but the oxes keep sleeping the rulers of fate and the keepers of time have no clocks in their keeping they hail to the thief, to the lord of the sith who never thinks he's wrong just disagreed with dancing on the grasping fingers of the new palace vines looking to spatter a smidgen of grime like a potion in a cursed wizards eyes and the sun comes down to incinerate the fake dream of impossible paradise that to one too many was the guiding black-light of a useless life Come on now let's start the flooding of the wishing well let's watch our ugly reality crawl on out of its shell why should I submit to a complacent eye when it is blind to me when you have died for it they lie to liars cry to their altars in shame let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid of you let me dream, I'm not afraid you run so quickly grasping burning pearls that melt your hands so quickly grasping burning pearls that melt your hands so quickly grasping burning pearls that melt your hands so quickly grasping burning pearls that melt your sinister ageing molting hands let me dream I'm not afraid

I used to think that half the world loves the rain would live and die for and make love to the rain I used to think the other half would do the same if instead there was pain instead of the rain I used to think that I always liked the sun much like how i used to think that i was your son two birds, one stone, now life feels much more fun and i dont even have to please anyone Falling in diamonds along with the snow she just became my girlfriend you know her inner warmth's something that she never shows I call her my snow angel and she just glows I used to think all my threads could be resewn and all the cotton tucked back into my bones I think I seem to have a small candy heart it seems to be quite sour as a sweet tart I used to think that I always felt the leaves much in the way my mountains sway when I breathe Guess that the leaves are to be true feeling me blowing up in my face to try to rescue me Falling in lydians across all my scales happens to be that dead men tell all my tales I've got a secret exit when all else fails riding the crest of tears from my solar sails

Moth Girl 03:07
my heart beats too whimsical dont i dont i more like a fan than a bass drum on its side gnaw at my nails write songs about the rain and the chasms there'd be in my bed if i was a moth girl wings beat like pendulums gone high gone high i skip time as fast as i can feel it alone make love to your glorious light i guess that the pain stays the same when I am a moth girl always invisible walls in the way that's another thing that doesn't change i promise you im beautiful you just have to look real hard or not hard at all

I tend to say desaturation is my one enhancement you you've got your kicks you've got your tricks and they hang all around this apartment I have not been very all right I've just stared for 5 days at a void white why do they tell me every night there's a new explanation of every kind We both seem to live in our abstractions in our distractions don't we and I I must admit it's so much nicer now I just hope that there will be more times Won't you remove my wrapping with a steel knife stretch me nicely into a Bermuda kite why do they tell me every night to watch the autumn leaves fall, adjust the scale to my height I would like to think that I could blink and you would still be holding your smile I I hope that these are things that I am allowed to feel this often I've been courting a thing in mind while a dark familiar faded behind me why do they tell me every night to move my dark position towards the light

i came to you naked in the grass was i now the way we always asked for don't mind me somehow it doesn't phase how i seem for in the very same dream i came to you naked in a field and you let me know again that i was real is there a distance between them even the flowers in the fields both stayed the same and the more i thought about it the higher and larger the flowers would grow until they'd wrap me up and bury me bud and bloom and grow around me on me in me I am a Damsel Lillith Pansy I'm small and I'm gay but I look quite fancy I'll be your dress if you take me dancing I'll be distressed if you leave me antsy and it doesn't matter anymore never again does it ever matter If i could split myself in two and take both paths on a fork in the road I know I'd never be lost but maybe that's because one would actually make it and the other would die in the frost or just meet me in the middle and we'd know something was left behind left behind and the more i think about it the larger in number the paths would grow until it's just a plain of endless soil that all my sibling flowers return in I am a Damsel Lillith Pansy I'm small and I'm gay but I look quite fancy I'll be your dress if you take me dancing I'll be distressed if you leave me antsy and it doesn't matter anymore never again does it matter ever again i see a pair of familiar footsteps walking past me almost crushing me I'm not the child that you remember look what pollen has done for me I came to you naked in a field and you gazed at me, longingly I felt your lips upon my hips I guess this is what we wanted whatever it is

I'll Give you my earth you wonderful sweetness girl I'll give you my earth you silly sad thing of fire and water and air I will help you ground yourself and I will help you feel what flies and dies all through you

When it rains she is squealing when it pours they both are screaming and then the lightning crashes down making the planting of the seed they tossed around It's so hard for God to not make a sound Satan said we should've done my place no screaming's ever heard there God's pretty perfect hands wet and dripping vaselene while Satan sat naked and sweaty on her legging God's pretty perfect hands shaking slowly reaching toward Satan said yr safe with me and inched herself slowly forward God's pretty perfect hands wet and dripping vaselene while Satan sat naked and sweaty smugly picking at her tongue ring God's pretty perfect hands shaking slowly reaching toward Satan said yr safe with me and inched herself slowly forward She said of one so pure you must be drowning and the cheeks of God turned rosy pink she looked down half-smiling she felt her tail wrap around her waist her sharp black nails purred down her face their bulges touched, they were each other's saving grace God's pretty perfect hands wet and dripping vaselene while Satan sat naked and sweaty on her legging God's pretty perfect hands shaking slowly reaching toward Satan said yr safe with me and inched herself slowly forward God's pretty perfect hands wet and dripping vaselene while Satan sat naked and sweaty smugly picking at her tongue ring God's pretty perfect hands shaking slowly reaching toward Satan said yr safe with me and then produced The Blunted Sword Even in all her brightness she still has many demons inside her she moans them all into Satan's mouth they cancel out but she leaves just one inside her to save for later they're always multiplying they both know that and Satan knows that it excites her for God is Mercy and she pleads it when Satan is behind her God's pretty perfect hands wet and dripping vaseline while Satan sat naked and sweaty on her legging God's pretty perfect hands shaking slowly reaching toward Satan said yr safe with me and inched herself slowly forward God's pretty perfect hands wet and dripping vaseline while Satan sat naked and sweaty smugly picking at her tongue ring God's pretty perfect hands shaking slowly reaching toward Satan said yr safe with me and inched herself slowly forward

Let me remind you where you're wanted Let me remind you where you are most powerful Let me remind you who your friends really are you may cry a bit too hard just to warn you Let me remind you where you're worshiped Let me remind you where you are most in tune Let me remind you who your family really are you may find it a bit bizarre just to warn you Let me remind you where you're seen Let me remind you where you're felt Let me remind you who loves you the way you are every burn and every scar and every darkness Let me remind you what you've been Let me remind you all the universes you've made good again Let me remind you what your destinies all are you may fly a bit too far if you don't remember Finding new ways to keep us from falling north pedaling backwards, sallying forth past our world's end I've put in place my plan to renegade this is my serenade to the witchy world Down a black hole that bleeds light from the other side and they chant, "This was the life that you were meant for". Everyone's the Queen round here we rule all we survey and the day we rule ourselves has finally come today and the time of our own dynasties begins whenever we say and the image our of majesties becomes the standard play Let me remind you where you're wanted Let me remind you where you are most powerful Let me remind you who our enemies really are you may cry a bit too hard you may find it a bit bizarre you may fly a bit too far through every burn and every scar you'll find yourself in

Never having eaten drawing on the walls with chalk getting lost in your voice however many miles we walk Never having slept well smiling when you play guitar falling sleepily on your chest wonder what the heck we are Don't mind me please see me don't kiss me don't dismiss me Come find me you know me you dress me in the ways that you guess me Never having been fun that's a game you play so well I wish that I had more to you other than my silence to sell Never always verbal want to never be again thinking so much clearer armed with just a writing pen Come learn me where I'm at please kiss me I miss that Let's build up a system a garden of our stims Don't lose me But don't take it as a rule you can't break it string me up tell me your curse keep me safe inside your purse, if you want
