Elevation lines
Cold white tiles
The sun still in the sky
I can’t comprehend
I’m doing my best
Dark thoughts at a distance
No time to lament
Elevation lines
Cold white tiles
Has it been enough time?
Everything repeats

Is this all I can give?
Guess I might as well go and play pretend
Leave it on the shelf
I can’t walk the walk
Count as a dead end
Guess I might as well go and play pretend
(It’s a critical hit!)
Is this all I can give?

Time Flies

I bit my tongue til my mouth filled with blood
Glued my feet to the floor
I clenched my jaw til my teeth fell out
Could not dare make a sound
Time flies like birds in blue skies
I let it slip right through my fingers
My heart still beats in perfect harmony
(Time flies like birds in blue skies away from our old lives)
Time flies like birds in blue skies
I let it slip right through my fingers
I wish I was destined for something but I’m not and I never will be
I keep writing the same words year after year
But maybe the water isn’t so deep
This time I’ll dive in and see
Maybe the water isn’t so deep
This time I’ll dive in and see
And live today in spite of all the yesterdays I died

Strip away the beauty
Leave only the mechanics
Lock my heart deep in my chest
And I pray I won’t regret this
You’re a thousand different girls now
You’re a million different girls now
And is this what I missed?
Strip away the feeling
It’s something we both need
So I wait for it to finish
So I wait for it to finish
You’re a thousand different girls now
You’re a million different girls now
And is this what I missed?

I am prayerless in the garden
I am waiting for what’s destined
Empty promise to myself
I will never fall away
Will I deny or bear the weight
Weight of this world
And of this self
And of the chance at being something else

Restless Ghost

Stretching the seams of who I try to be
Once more it seems I’m the one who tears away at me
Try once again to turn the scars into new skin
Please God, tell me
Am I doomed to do it all over again?
I guess that’s the way it’s always like
I can’t help it
I’ll always be
Searching
Longing
Restless and wandering
There’s always time to start again
But I guess this is who I am

Cinema

Sometimes I feel like I have lived all the lives I will ever live
Curtains close, roll the credits
Foreign language silent film
Feels like I’ve been here for years
Always holding onto whatever slips through my fingers
And the words always flow like water
Worthless flakes of gold or silver
And the water feels black til I wake
I can’t run fast enough
I can’t, I can’t wake up
Please take me home

Overplayed

You don’t have to feel so sorry for yourself
You don’t have to learn to act like you’re someone else
Oh that ain’t for me
Only wanna live a life of luxury
Only wanna wear shit made in Italy
Only wanna drown out the noise
Wanna bleed my throat fucking dry
Can you do it? Can you?
Make me feel. Make me feel something
No more waiting to repeat
No more time to lament
Overplayed, all overplayed
and undersold and well-behaved

More Alive

Crawling through old stories
Looking for hints at life and living
I’m just passing by
Writing my thoughts all down
Doesn’t make for permanence
Nothing lasts a life
Why do I say this to myself
When everything could be not as it seems
Why do I say this to myself
When I could be someone else
Why do I say this to myself?

I died a million times
Left hand cuts the right
I’ll die a million more
I can’t stop myself
I couldn’t seem to let you go
I wanted so badly to hold you again

Nothing to me
02:45

I need romance
I want selfish
World turns, don’t care
World aches, don’t care
Your stars mean nothing
Your skies - nothing to me
I need romance
I want selfish
World turns, don’t care
World hurts, don’t care
My love means more
Don’t you want to say just how you feel?

Was it ever worth wasting time on all these words?
Is there meaning there, in any rhyme or any verse?
I only ever wanted to get a better sense of me
But when I look over my shoulder
It seems like everything repeats.

What might a band like Indian Summer or Native Nod sound like if they were thrashing around a 21st century basement? It could be something like this.

Insane album. Had to buy it as soon as I heard it and is honestly a 2023 AOTY contender for me. The lyrics are so simple yet evocative and the music is a vicious scream for change in a unchanging world and contempt for the way everything is and seemingly will be/has been for all of our history. I heard Deathless before this and this just absolutely blows it out of the water.
