What Else

I don’t know, what I want, but I want what’s coming to me
Hold my breath, then I jump
Don’t really know what’s waiting beneath
What Else am I to do
I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place
And can’t pull through
I might, be falling apart
Rock bottom as a new start
While taking shots in the dark
I don’t have much to say
Than what I’ve been feeling lately
Just wanna pave
My own way, since there’s no path waiting
For me

Ignore Everything
03:53
|

|
I’ve been on the run
Stumbling forward
Tripping on one
What have I become, sometimes I can’t help it
When I’m dumb
And the crime fit the decree
Doing time by spending it with me
And sometimes I find it much easier
To hide away and ignore everything
Tried to find peace, but had so much built up
Couldn’t release, felt a squeeze on my heart
Me, myself, tore us apart

What’s your reaction to future planning
Ya know? Not sure what path we’re on
This is the answer you know
Word gets around faster than you know
Oh yeah we can live there, that’s what he said
Oh hey, by the way, my whole thoughts like

Easier

Why you screaming? Why you coughing up a lung
Just stop complaining, please
My life’s changing, it’s something I’m doing constantly
Its gonna happen, it’s in the stars
Do you think that it’ll be easier
Cos’ you’re the one that I prefer
But staying still is something that
I can’t do
And we see things in a different way
But you were never one for the chase
But much head is always in the race
And I can’t lose
I can’t get lonely , I do so well all by myself
I really get along some how
Think I can make it, I’ve been around a time or two
And life’s a crazy merry go round
So I’ll play along with this charade
But know I’m not to be fooled

Like a Bird

You were like a bird, you flew away from me
Will you ever come back? Will you ever come back to me?
I thought I was all you adored
I don’t know, what you want any more
We were happy, we were good
When we’re together the whole world stood
Still, I still wanna be with you
I still, wanna be with you
You were like the snow, you fall down gently
All you do is freeze me, freeze me
You left me out in the cold
The only thing you ever known
|

You were exactly where you said you were
When you called me to pick you up
And I closed my eyes, stepped in the puddle outside
Filled with mud
And you waddled your own way back
Promise me it really isn’t as bad as it seems
Assured me this one last time
Was your last
And my head says one more time won’t kill you
And if it does you won’t have to answer to
Anyone, anyone, anyone that you love
You we’re on time when you showed up
Twelve steps can seem steep enough
To frighten and leave you running scared
And I know that times are rough
No ambition in particular
But you know you don’t wanna brave another day
And my head says one more time won’t kill you
And if it does you won’t have to answer to
Anyone, anyone, anyone that you love
And my head says one more time
And this time it might be right
But you don’t have to answer to anyone

I Fucking Hate You

I Fucking Hate You so much
For making me fall in love
Unintentionally, but you’re braking me down
And soon I’ll be six feet underground
And there will be no turning down anything from me

Bleed It Out
04:00
|

|
You always say that it’s your heart
But it’s another body part
It worked against me with all its might
But I’m pouring it out tonight
And I can’t remember when you said sorry
But there was one thing that you said to me
Bleed It Out right here
With every drop and every tear
Bleed It Out, over me
And the pattern’s repeating
And now I’m scared of what you say
And what you feel can be so strange
But still it’s just not about you
Think about what I go through

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.

everything is alive

I just bought this on vinyl. This album is terrible, and this is a stupid band. In no way am I overcome with a mix of awe and jealous rage every time I listen to this record, which is constantly.

Cool It Down

Superb craftsmanship. Nearly chose Spitting... for fave track but there are no bad choices to be clear! Karen O is no doubt going to demand an explanation from MY manager, about why the heck I didn't buy this a year ago, when it was released. 👀 I have no good excuse 😔 To atone for such an omission, I solemnly promise to buy Fever To Tell - as soon as you guys put that up for sale here on BC. 😘 (Please and thank you in advance 🙏☺️)

Riveting and hypnotic, “Exit Simulation” has the same sense of mystery as the best trip-hop, topped with ghostly vocal melodies.
