lyrics
Drinking warm red wine
It’s all you left behind
I savour every sip, like poison to my lips
Just to black out and help me forget
A cold heart to miss
With a dangerous kiss
I didn’t see the signs, I died a thousand times
Release me from the shackles of my mind
Who knew loving you’s a crime
I’m wanted, doing time
My hands were bound, I watched you lock and load
I wish you’d left me cold
I keep my powder dry
Can’t say the same for my eyes
A flash in the pan, that was not the plan
Who are you and where is my man?
An evil deed ya done
To take my secrets and run
I’m candy to your eyes, but you were compromised
How foolish I never realized
Who knew loving you’s a crime
I’m wanted, doing time
My hands were bound, I watched you lock and load
I wish you’d left me cold
It’s all you left behind
I savour every sip, like poison to my lips
Just to black out and help me forget
A cold heart to miss
With a dangerous kiss
I didn’t see the signs, I died a thousand times
Release me from the shackles of my mind
Who knew loving you’s a crime
I’m wanted, doing time
My hands were bound, I watched you lock and load
I wish you’d left me cold
I keep my powder dry
Can’t say the same for my eyes
A flash in the pan, that was not the plan
Who are you and where is my man?
An evil deed ya done
To take my secrets and run
I’m candy to your eyes, but you were compromised
How foolish I never realized
Who knew loving you’s a crime
I’m wanted, doing time
My hands were bound, I watched you lock and load
I wish you’d left me cold

about
Kandle Montreal, Québec
Weaving a thrum of trip-hop downbeats, brilliant, gut wrenching lyrics, and her signature, sultry, haunting vocals, Kandle is back! She knows too well the darkness we all face, and with these songs she reaches out to all those who wish to be understood but feel they aren’t. Kandle can weave this magic so powerfully because she feels it too, she is out here in the darkness with us. ... more

Perfect blend of lo-fi styling with interesting lyrical escapades, melancholy moods and uptempo garage-y tracks. Seth and Nancy did it again! Love this band and I really hope they'll reawaken this utterly unique project in the future.
