We all lie just to get by
It feels fine for a little while
I can’t keep it up for long
Cause I’m spinning a web and I’m stuck and it’s fucked
But I know this will hurt
Cause when I’m hurt, I treat you worse
I miss your skin, I miss your touch
I never thought it’d hurt this much
I hate this feeling in my gut
I wish you would quit me, I wish you would just leave
Cause I can never walk away
And so it’s up to you to break me
And I’ll try to say goodbye
I’ll be fast to save you time
I can’t help but stay the night
You’re alarmed and you’re hurt and I just make it worse
When I run through your veins
Cause when I’m hurt, I treat you worse
I miss your skin, I miss your touch
I never thought it’d hurt this much
I hate this feeling in my gut
I wish you would quit me, I wish you would just leave
Cause I can never walk away
And so it’s up to you to break me
You can have my body, just not my soul
Can’t give what’s not mine anymore
Have my body, just not my soul
You can have my body, I’ve lost control
Can’t live on my own anymore
Have my body, just not my soul
Have my body, but not my soul
Have my body, but not my soul
I miss your skin, I miss your touch
I never thought it’d hurt this much
I hate this feeling in my gut
I wish you would quit me, I wish you would just leave
Cause I can never walk away
And so it’s up to you to break me
Musically this feels more experimental for La Dispute reminding me of their Here, Hear releases. Very atmospheric and easy to lose your self in. Perfect for the next time you’re contemplating your existence. (Also found out the guitarist builds his own pedals and used them on this record; neato!) Mikey
Recorded on the Grecian isle of Hydra, this is blissed-out psych pop with stacked falsetto harmonies and luscious arrangements. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 9, 2023
Two dozen 12-string acoustic improvisations that feel undeniably haunting, like lost transmissions from ancient Appalachia, rediscovered. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 17, 2022
