lyrics
All the kids are going blind
I say I’m lost so that you can find me
A place where we’ll never slow down
Everything seems so uncertain
I give you my word I’ll learn it
All, I’ll learn it all
But memory’s a cheater’s game
An empty canvas in a frame
That you may fill with whatever you desire
There comes again that drafty sound
That cracks and whistles underground
And makes me drop my balance on the wire
I see your reflection through the mirror
How did my eyes get so thin?
I ask myself in the past
I tried so hard to travel inwards
Love was somewhere in the distance
Past the cars and faded photographs
I can’t stand the ruins I hold to
When I asked and I was told to
Try again just not then.
“We can move away” I said
I told her as night began
And my father found out that the car was gone
And your face lit up like lightning
Between the headlights and the sky
I couldn’t get it right then
I had wasted, I couldn’t raise my eyes
I had cased myself in amber
With other girls I just pretended
I said all the things that they would want
When the morning came
I couldn’t stand it
Birds became dueling bandits
Bullets would whistle through the cracks
I remember sitting sober
On the front porch telling my best friend
A lie of what could never be
You were born just one year later
Things don’t seem to carry that much
Weight back when nobody could see
I’m given to false addiction
I close my eyes and paint a picture
Turns out I’m strung on my senses
Turn me on I’m getting restless
The L.A. DIY mainstay offers a homespun collection of melodic tunes with occasional forays into noisier territory. Bandcamp Album of the Day Aug 18, 2021
The latest from Sonny Smith's long-running San Francisco outfit is clever and very sweet and more than a little bit country. Bandcamp Album of the Day Aug 3, 2021
