You left me on the screen
No yes, no no
Just the spinning wheel
And the noon that won't move
My name in your hand
Like a match you don't strike
I'm here in the middle
Of your quiet night
Still here
Still warm
Still caught
In your pause
I hear the room breathe
When you almost decide
My heart at the edge
Of your finger and light
Held for review
I'm held for review
Not turned away
Not let through
Held for review
I'm held for review
I lean to the door
You don't open
The cup on the table
Goes cold by itself
I count every minute
Like dust on a shelf
You don't have to love me
To keep me in view
That almost is crueler
Than saying I'm through
Still here
Still warm
Still caught
In your pause
I wear this waiting
Like something you chose
A lock with no click
A road with no road
Held for review
I'm held for review
Not turned away
Not let through
Held for review
I'm held for review
I lean to the door
You don't open
If I step back slow
Will the air feel mine?
If I stop asking
Do I stay in line?
One small sign
One clean break
Or a little mercy
I can take
Held for review
I'm held for review
Not turned away
Not let through
Held for review
I'm held for review
I lean to the door
You don't open

Odria Pelt's debut album, Held for Review, is a work for those whose hearts receive the verdict before the answer arrives
Through pale synth textures, it portrays the quiet anxiety and helplessness of a life left waiting for someone else's judgment
