about

In true understated heroine form, Reb Fountain shares Faithless Lover; an epic retelling of transcendent love. Hauntingly intimate yet steeped in cinematic grandeur, Reb Fountain renders the deeply personal as a mythic parable, welcoming a state of transformation.

“We are close; so close to ourselves it’s uncomfortable. Falling in love with illusions that serve the ego but not the heart. Faithless Lover tells a tale of mutiny; coming alive to oneself - one’s place in the story – in vulnerability and beyond fear. I want that; to transform the stories that bind us and to wake up in rebellion.”

lyrics

Pour me a drink while I try not to think about times going by
All the love to untie
I’d be fooling myself if it wasn’t for the light in your eyes

Watch the way that you move
Your body my muse
This idle design
Fate was surprised
Fate was surprised that you lied

White lies
Hang on your words for their
White lies
Take what you serve of your
White lies
Better than singing the blues

Faithless Lover
Faithless Lover
Faithless Lover
Lost my faith in your song

I blink and you’re gone
Just when I think that you’re not
Just when I lose myself in you
No matter how we hide
Ghosts breath still life
Painted lies
Reveal the truth

White lies
Better believe in you
White lies
Lied to myself it’s true
White lies
Found myself singing the blues

Faithless Lover
Faithless Lover
Faithless Lover
Lost my faith in your song

Faithless Lover
Faithless Lover
I found faith in my song
