about

When does life stop belonging to ghosts and fears, when does it start being yours and mine..

lyrics

7.When (Nigel Kerr/Rachael Brady)

Happiness is an elusive little bird you’ve heard that you’re chasing to catch and keep in a golden cage - you tell yourself that you have it and you hold it in your arms on the darkest nights so you never have to feel afraid - but here you are (poor boy) and the joy escapes you and a spiral begins and descent is steep. From beneath the scars that criss-cross a tender heart come all the enemies of a restful sleep. So what if daddy was a drunk and you’re never good enough and death terrifies you all the time? When does life stop belonging to ghosts and fears – when does it start being yours and mine? While you’re waiting for some perfect life to happen, our life is passing by. And while you’re waiting for the right time to be happy, we’re running out of time. Happiness is an elusive little bird you’ve heard that you’re chasing to catch and keep in a golden cage - tell yourself that you have it and you hold it in your arms on the darkest nights so you never have to feel afraid.

Rachael Brady Sydney, Australia

Rachael Brady has one of those voices you only find in singers grounded by their guts into a life deeply & often messily lived.

It’ll probably sing some of yours too.
Brady is currently (2024) recording her 4th studio album "Bears, Witches & Wolves" with Blue Mountains based producer Josh Schuberth. ... more
