Merce Lemon has been a mainstay of the consistently prolific Pittsburgh music scene for longer than most people can claim, or even remember – it’s where the music in her life began, and is where it’s since returned to bloom perennially. “I grew up in a house full of music, and I’ve been making songs for as long as I can remember,” says Lemon. “Both of my parents played in bands when I was kid. I had an acapella group with my sister and friends when I was nine or ten that I wrote all the songs for, and I changed the name of our band every show we played.”
I cook dinner with some friends
Tidy up the house tie up loose ends
Now the sun has yet to set
A little staring at the ceiling
Pick a book I never read
And I get lonely for a bit
Comes in waves and then it split
Like a kiss
That missed my lips
Will you do me a kindness?
Point the sun
Right into my flesh
I want
Nothing left
Will you do me a kindness?
