Golden Summer
01:14

break my heart in two
the summer's passed
go back to your house
and golden chains
it must be nice
not to have to care
not to have to worry
to write your own story

Boy

say nothing
nothing changes
in a year you'll be gone
the wind will take you
far from here
and i'll be in the same spot
pining for you
new wonders
new faces
every week so you'll forget
the intersections
of our days
we're getting older there's not much left
to see
to do
and it's too late for anything
the window's shut so has the feeling
and i'm still meandering
between the moments it could have been
you come and go
as you please
i can't blame you i'm not what you need
i'm just a passing novelty
and to you
i'm nothing
but a boy

The Dark Hour
02:44
|
|||
|
this doesn't make sense anymore
this iteration is a bore
while they're all dancing
i know it's not the same
while they're all prancing about
i'll speak your name
they say the good times never last
it's pain to fixate on the past
while they're about i know
that once was me
their careless laughter's enough to
set me free
running out of breath
in a cold sweat
thinking of death
it comes it's looming over
the light strobes
young grow old
it reaches out a crooked finger
baby don't go
my life is yours
baby be safe
i can't remain

Touch
03:51
|

|
pixels arranged
an abstraction of your face
i'm eating up the lies
can't help but fantasize
now i'm riding out the years
temptation's but a fear
touch me
one spark
i'm on fire
keep me warm
touch me
one spark
my desire
only yours
counting the days
until we rendezvous
broad daylight
without no motives too
conversation
clever banter
completely sober
light as a feather
gotta make the most, gotta be engrossed in these pointless conversations
gotta tell me all about the days when you were tumblr famous
don't give me that bullshit just to impress me
i'm lifting your mask but it's so fucking heavy
i wanted this
i wanted this
i wanted this
why can't i be happy

Foolish
03:57
|
|||
|
does it make a fool
to speak from the heart
is it right to spend so much time
chasing
people we don't know
wherever we may go
is it right to plan so far ahead
projecting
the things we want
on others
i figured it out
all tonight
i'll pack my bags
i'll take flight
say goodbye to my world tomorrow
say hello to all that follows

If (feat. Babebee)
03:40
|
|||
|
you, you make me weak
for you anything
i've travelled all around the world
i've seen my share of pretty girls
but now i wake up from the dream
swept, swept off my feet
from a face on my screen
my heart knows where it wants to go
there's butterflies to and fro
please be where i want you to be
call me
tell me all about your day
tell me
if i still need to pray
if we were together we'd rewrite forever
this song our communion our make on the either
say goodbye to lonely days
finally i’m waking up
from my memory i have constructed
inside of my head
it’s time to move on
it’s time to go
where we wanna go,
so let’s travel the world,
i wanna be your only girl,
i’m all yours please give me a tour of your mind,
everything will be alright when you call me

After U
02:46

after you
i'll follow whatever path you choose
all for you
i don't care i don't care i don't care i don't care
i might not be the man you need but
i'll adjust
your smile i'll keep
it's weird but it feels right i'll
keep this going
with all my might
after you
i'll follow your vague ass trail of clues
i'll find you
yesterday or a time after many moons

dream
it's all you have
i wish i had a word or two for you
but it's nothing you would care about
you can argue about the shade of blue to use (for the carpet)
i'll wish i had a gun in my mouth
research indicates
the color blue
sparks a neural response
that soothes your mood
i'm straddling the line between
my childhood whimsies and reality
is life just a matter of chasing green
what does it all really fucking mean
there's too many stupid things that i have got to do
the world's on fire and i'm just sat watching the morning news
i'll take my coffee black if that's alright with you
a little bitterness to complement the view

Paper Castles
04:08
|

|
Just one look
A twinkle in her eye
I disappear in the palace of my mind
It goes on forever
Beyond the threads of time
Just one glance
My heart begins to dance
I can't leave it all to chance
Underneath
These phosphorescent lights
Now I know just what I want from life
Just you, just you, just you
Baby don't let the years fly by
Now I've gotten used to life without you
By my side
Just one night
It all burned down
Paper castles and paper crowns
I believed
You'd go along with me
Our golden summer wasn't meant to be
I told myself this didn't really matter
But two years on my heart is still in tatters

Shatter
02:47
|
|||
|
i know you know i know you know
we've long passed the window
where we could go
to the land where anything is possible
just try just fight just bleed
you can't change anything
just try just fight just see
you can't go back
the glass has shattered
now i can't dream
tomorrow's ghost lurks behind the empty screen
gotta find a way
i can't go back
try again try again
continue

Everstone

looking upon the stars
for a brighter day when the sun comes
i keep a picture in my heart
of who i could be if i worked hard
i just wanna make you smile
but my condition won't allow
me to be at my best
i'll just put your patience to the test
is there anybody out there?
is there anybody out there for me?
is there anything out there?
is there anything out there to see?
every single day i wonder
if i should get up or go under
but everything points to an answer
that i can't get myself to go after

Spring Rites

Bright, gorgeous, bashing songs from these Belgian shoegazers that never lose track of melody amidst the waves of distortion.
go to album
Subsonic Eye combines math rock, dream pop, and guitar sounds borrowed from post-rock for songs that whirl and flurry, but never quite settle.
