Parish Lines

Influenced by Luther Vandross, Sade, Marcus Miller, Johnny Hartman, Peabo Bryson. For six years, Lyle Vandros's job as an Air Force Cryptologic Linguist was to listen to secrets in a language not his own. Now, the Charleston native translates that experience into a precise, deeply felt brand of quiet-storm soul. His silky tenor and lush arrangements, reminiscent of Luther Vandross, map the uncharted territory of the human heart with the meticulous focus of a cartographer. These songs are the declassified reports from a man who spent years listening to the world, and is only now learning to speak.

Lyrics

[Chorus]
The slow static bleed on the county line.
We're tracing ghosts in the margins tonight.

[Verse 1]
The Buist Academy gym smells like varnish and November rain.
Just the low-grade friction of scuffing shoes on the grain.
I’m decoding the syntax of the woman in front of me,
her shoulders a perfect, perpendicular misery.

[Chorus]
The slow static bleed on the county line.
We're tracing ghosts in the margins tonight.

[Verse 2]
The poll worker’s smile is a flat, corrected grid.
"Just sign at the bottom, son," like the ink wasn't something I did.
And the gradient shifts in the quiet of this room,
a pressure change before the coming of a bloom... or a doom.

[Bridge]
I used to map the resonance of foreign threats.
Now I just measure out the distance in our breaths.

[Chorus]
The slow static bleed on the county line.
We're tracing ghosts in the margins tonight.

[Outro]
On the county line.
Static bleed.
