Lyrics:

I could start a fire
Inside this belly, burning bright
All my veins light up like wires
Lambent skin cuts through the night
While the stars dim behind me

A luminescent choir
Holds court inside my lungs
Your love ~ my burning pyre
Your lust ~ my mother tongue

Now I'm burning brighter
And something in the darkness starts to shine...

Burning brighter, burning bright
Like a fire in the night
Burning brighter, burning bright
Finding friends inside the light

Something has surrendered
Something's been set free
I could start a fire
Dancing, flaming, burning wild
With phosphorous desires

Now I'm burning brighter
And something in the darkness starts to shine...

Burning brighter, burning bright
Like a fire in the night
Burning brighter, burning bright
Finding friends inside the light

From the album "A Collection of Creatures" released January 21 2014. Buy the album or track directly from the band here: johnnyhollow.com

A Collection of Creatures is Johnny Hollow's third full-length album.
It was funded entirely by a crowd-sourcing campaign fuelled by the mantra:

No Middle Men, Just Fans!

Johnny Hollow would like to thank all of the incredible patrons who made this album possible, and continue to inspire the band with their enthusiastic support. This is your album!

To create this album, the band went back to their DIY roots; it was recorded almost entirely in-house and self-produced, with a whole lot of blood, sweat, & tears and little help from some very talented friends.

Johnny Hollow is: Janine White, Kitty Thompson, Vincent Marcone, & Steve Hiehn.

Album Art & Design by Vincent Marcone.
