about

Sun and Rain is a fuzzy and loud take on birdwatching, drawing parallels between humans and their flighty friends. The lyrics are a reflection on the effects of climate change on birds all across the globe and was inspired after Xani read Jonathan Franzen’s book of essays, The End Of The End Of The Earth.

lyrics

See the bird flapping its wings
Its going hard at it but just keeps copping the wind
It is impossible to do on such a day
But the other birds are gonna try it
They're lining up woa wow

One by one they're joining the flock
They wanna reach where they're going to feed by the rocks
But it's impossible to see through wind and slate
But they're flapping all together getting through it all
One by one

Sun and rain sun and rain
We'll get lost in it
God and pain God and pain
We'll keep holding it
Loss and faith loss and faith
We'll go back to it
Hope and shame hope and shame
Left my heart in it

When the birds land on the lake
Where the krill has come since its climate has changed
All the birds break their formation
They're fighting over what is their share
But there's enough for everyone
Woa wow

North, south, on land and on see
We're like the birds, we are flapping coz we wanna be free
But it's impossible to fly for miles and miles
Without doing it together in unison, woa wow
