lyrics
From the window of an all black car
I watched you fade like a sleeping scar
And I just don't know, what did I expect
From the way you held your head so high
A minute mile and the town below
If they were asking, I won't tell a soul
Oh I just don't know, what did I forget
From the way you held your head so high
You found a way
To escape when
The sun was in your eyes
Now it's dark out
And they're still asking
Does it feel like a lie
You want to play me out
Blame it all on my one-track mind
Someday you'll come around
And if not, just stay stuck in my side
You want to play me out
You want a lesson learned
You want a strong goodbye
As you watched me crawl on the floor
Would it kill you if I don't want anything more
Than a ride home
Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.
