Careless 05:18
My love is not a desperate love it is open as an autumn window where the curtains blow and the light is splitting into light is splitting into light is splitting into light and my blood runs slow and sweet and the days are filled with ordinary things my boots by the door, twinning with yours carelessly slung into perfection I sing this song to you from the other room each night while I wait for sleep to come and I listen to the quiet hum of your voice I’ll never pin the angle of your mind but I’ll listen to it all my life and isn’t that love, isn’t that love a quiet heart, and two ears on the source opening and opening to the luck of never knowing and in my wildest in my wildest dreams I throw veil after veil from the heart but do I have the courage for what remains in my wildest in my wildest dreams I throw veil after veil from the heart and find the silence beyond words and isn’t that love isn’t that love the waiting now is the hardest part it’s insane I cannot touch you while we lean on your car oh I can love again, please don’t make me love again knowing this I choose to love only you with all I stand to lose, I love only you

Relief 04:44
Silence becomes you I hear the circle close each time and my voice just curdles something you deserve falls to mine honey I hope you never know this kind of quiet how far is relief my love becomes you I’ve never seen you so alive, so alive always thought i was doing right and isn’t that the cross I hang on but when I see you in that light you know it’s almost gone how far is relief

Fools 03:57
never wanted to tie you down cause I loved your flight you coulda done most anything come home to me at night my friends all warned me to stay away said you just couldn't do right but I let you crush me one last time to curb my appetites I don't know why you keep me hangin around just to make a fool of me well oh who's the real fool now we had a true love you watched it go by cold light from a cold eye you were listening to blood on the tracks when I got in your car and I saw right through you then girl I didn't have to see far by the time the record spins around to side B another hand rests on your thigh in deepest sympathy I don't know why you keep me hangin around just to make a fool of me well oh who's the real fool now you think he loves you man he never stood a chance ain't no one can love you from the palm of your own hand we had a true love you just watched it go by and I wanna know yeah I wanna know why didn't you try

Liliana 07:18
Liliana weeping there makeup slurring like a drunk a consolation here and there but lust led us to nothing much up in the ruins we were just boys then starstruck and heartbroke nothing to no one told her it'd be okay lay my empty hand on hers wild hearts will bear no weight so sleep it off now, til the birds til morning dreams the city new dreams it all back into place dreams the locks on all the doors dreams it always just the same up in the ruins we were just boys then starstruck and heartbroke nothing to no one all I saw was you when I fell into the orchids closing eyes on the wheel of time a scent like a psalm sleep now Liliana you've had a hell of a day me I need a little clarity the room is spinning like a waltz I can almost see it see my life without fear it is your hand on the underside of my knee oh now my enemy sleeps deep inside of me oh now my enemy sleeps deep inside of me Now I see the truth of it how I pulled and choked against the bit how my thoughts were hardly even mine who have I been all my life?

about

There’s a cohesiveness to Birnbaum’s surgical songwriting, a sort of cowboy pop that’s got one eye wandering toward outlaw territory and one fixed on catchy melodies[...]Everyday Crimes Against Objects of Desire, Vol II. sounds like the first sure strides past hesitation’s boundaries. - Caitlin White - Stereogum

With lyrics seeping in heartbreak and bitterness and a chorus that rises up to the heavens, it’s the kind of classic sound that instantly makes you weak in the knees - The Wild Honey Pie

No amount of positive praise can really capture the magic that is present in this song and the others on the album. The only thing left to do now is just press play (right now, do it). - Wordkrapht

You’ll want to sing along to it again and again. - Folk Radio UK
