I'm a kid Held by smaller words "Tiny Little Boy" with his suitcase packed I've been struggling pulling brains apart just lacking decent skill or patience 'cause I'm built of hate
3.
Thinking of you today almost had me right back at tears Seems just a hint of your face was enough to bring back my fears been putting you out like the trash that you are with weekly pickup on wednesdays then head home take a pill, fall asleep for a month, and wake up with a new face goddamn these thoughts and goddamn these people that remind me of you and goddamn the heart attacks every single one of them I wish you'd go through I've been told it's good for me to cry but I can't the thought doesn't register I put power in you then try to take it away but it proves too impossible

Turnpike 03:32
Burning away I’ve been burning away Half of today has spent just Burning away Blackened lungs Dry from the smoke that expelled from his gun Standing on the turnpike Ready to run towards the boulevard Light myself on fire I don’t want to be desired The way that I was when I was stuck in your head The way that I was when you were out in the dead night Burning away I’ve been burning away Half of today has spent been on your lawn Burning away

We were young Kept runnin our mouths til he tore out our tongues Didn’t hurt like anything Still can’t feel much of anything When will it go? I don’t know When will it go? I don’t know

Veins 03:05
Dirty face and worn out veins I see you're away I'll let you hit me with that spike in your fist if it'll moderate the pain I'm not lost I'm capable of being someone Dirty face and worn out veins I see you're away I'll let you hit me with that spike in your fist if it'll re-arrange my brain
9.
Medicine Man 04:26
I am a medicine man Bring me your colors and I’ll fix them for you When in the ground you said “I’m Sorry” Ripped into pieces I am not okay with this she says Your hands are on my thighs again Do I posses the strength To tear off half your face Before you do me in I’m not a medicine man Don’t bring me your colors just to fix them When in the ground you said you’re sorry

released July 12, 2011

music by: Malcom Lacey
mastered by: Drew Harris

"His unassuming vocals quiver and crack with emotion, giving the impression not of a person who can't feel, but of one who must be cautious of feeling too much. That's a common symptom of being a teenager, which Lacey is. So it's extra-impressive that Plantation never goes over the top. Instead, this highly personalized fusion of dark indie-pop and laptop ambient taps into volatile wellsprings of longing, resentment, and fear with controlled intensity." - Pitchfork [7.7], Brian Howe

"Plantation unfolds itself song by song much like a film does scene by scene. And also much like a movie, the listener discovers something previously unnoticed (and therefore unappreciated) with each replay. Thus, Malcolm Lacey has achieved with Plantation what most artists cannot in a career: to create an album that betters itself with each listen." - Lost In The Sound [97/100], Jeff Wilde

"A self-released solo affair from artist Malcolm Lacey, Plantation, is truly an album of vivid, heartbreak- quite possibly one of the most beautifully tragic albums since The Antlers’ Hospice." - Fake Plastic Tunes, Fr. Jones
