Every Saturday, we’ll be posting a new illustration by David Lester. The Mecca Normal guitarist is visually documenting people, places and events from his band’s 32-year run, with text by vocalist Jean Smith.
When You Know
Where you know you shouldn’t go
I will take you there.
When you know you want to turn around
I will take you on.
Things you used to do alone
I will do with you.
Where you used to go alone
I will go with you.
Ladders, walls, red carpets, lakes
and down we go through our mistakes.
