do not forsake me oh my darling
though we're nothing like the sun
is every song a trial? is every girl the sun?
have your fingers ever broken? have you ever seen them bleed?
is it lips that do like hands do?
is it every mouth to feed?
& I know it's true..
is there no ceremony? no endless trust, no break of day?
in my hands I hold the paper, I hold the blood, I hold the name.
& I know it's true, I'll never be a brick wall for you
but I'll stay true

Drifting dreampop and snarling grunge, with potent vocals wrapped in gauzy textures one minute, surrounded by jagged riffs the next. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 21, 2023
