I finally hit the spot where I am done with this
I am a barren branch, I’m a psychiatrist
I am a warning shot from an ancient myth
Only to be forgot, that’s how I live like this
I met a charming thief and when I shook his hand
He saw the fire in me, I saw the smoke in him
He took the only thing, I ever wanted to be
But it was I who let him get so close to me
I used to whip my wrists with only wood and steel
Once I would wear my heart, I used to let it speak
I had a young man’s lungs and his foolish head
Now when I stand at all it is on beggar’s legs
You are invincible until you hit that wall
Some will go all the way some never live at all
I cannot lie and say I’ve never prayed for death
But those were painful days, thought I had nothing left
So when I lift my arm and I extend my hand
I never once forget that this is who I am
No matter what is next to disappear from me
I am the love I want I am the love I receive
I finally hit the spot where I am done with this
I am a broken wing, I am Icarus
I am a warning shot from an ancient myth
Only to be forgot, that’s how I live like this

When there’s nothing on your mind you can tell me anything / anything at all
When there’s nothing on your mind you can tell me anything / anything at all
I’ll be waiting on the back porch trying to tell you / everything’s alright
You’ll be staying on the phone line like the old times / straight into the night
I’ll be singing on my own somewhere / you’ll be writing at your desk
I’ll be right enough to tell you from the heart / the reason why I left
Lose myself / I don’t know what’s going on / every time we talk I fall apart

No More Crying Over Love

You were crawling from the home that you built up / shoddy from the start
And the captain of your heart was an old one / when it fell apart
No more crying over love
You were running to the rules you could still trust / funny how they change
There was no one left to fool when it came up / and so you kept your name
No more crying over love, no more crying over love
No more crying over love, no more crying over love
Who’ll be hiding with you in the morning? / Will you say his name?
Who’ll be hiding with you, when you wake up? / Will he feel the same?
No more crying over love
You were staring up the stream that you came from / drowning in the shade
You were hiding in the dream of a good start / funny how it fades
No more crying over love, no more crying over love
No more crying over love, no more crying over love
Who’ll be hiding with you in the morning? / Will you say his name?
Who’ll be hiding with you, when you wake up? / Will he feel the same?
No more crying over love

There are planes to better places where you’ll finally shed your skin
It’s been growing in your eyes since the moment we fell in
And the feeling’s never televised, it’s barely even sensed until you’re off
In the arms of something bigger you’ll be carried center stage
It will hold you when you linger, it will kiss you with your name
Like a fallen father figure who returns to save the day and win your heart
Out there in the open you will crack the great embrace
Brittle as a window that’s been glued into it’s place
When the changes take you further you will still remember how to frame your start
On the other side of everything, where lover’s stop and stare
And the lonely battle through the worst they’ve ever had to bear
You’ll be glowing like a universe you didn’t know was there
And it will throw you into orbit, right with everything you’ve ever wanted

Cooper is the real deal - he sings, writes, and plays everything. His tunes are a perfect mix - the charm of pop and the spirit of the underground. One of my favourite songwriters ever.

Another Burn on the AstroTurf
by Bart Budwig
Bart Budwig sings about the human condition - from every angle he can get to - and makes you dance and cry along the way. ABOTAT is his mangum opus. You won't be disappointed.

Beautiful melodies, experimental soundscapes, all wrapped up with an incredible voice and some finely-honed lyricism. Clara & Co. really achieved something original here. A hidden gem, this record.
