saw you were lonely
when i was least afraid
took comfort in a friend who didn't misbehave
and didn't make me say that i was
unaware of all the trouble we found
but every know and then their presence
questions everything i held so dear i'm shutting down as they draw near
you won't speak to me
but you look me in the eyes as if to say there's no more reason to try
you're goddamn right
now everything is all about you
and when you die
i'll have nothing more to write
now the beast has you by the throat
and you spilled the bleach on the blanket
where you hide your scar
under the fold so deep and dark
recognizing a remedy for foolishness
because i can't break what isn't mine
and it's never mine
Outfitting harmonnic indie rock with elements of folk, surf, and more, this D.C. quartet have a warm, homespun sound that's easy to love. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 18, 2024
