lyrics

the familiar breaks
and i am left with open eyes
a rooftop fire escape
where i can see
how the economy laid waste
to everything that made this town strong
these kids will follow on

you set yourself adrift
a brother of distance
who left behind this maisonette
from the novels you wrote of an escape route
i never spoke as you walked away

i hid messages under the floorboards
words trapped in my throat
and some day these messages will be found
like stumbling across a forest in this forgotten town

i could never speak of these average tragedies
dear mother, i hope you hear this now
this poverty repeats
it's the shackles around your feet
you fight through the day
the memories
the weight

i hid messages

can’t let these buried words
remain unspoken and unheard
dig through the sorrow
and i wil try to understand

Stumbled across this great band because of Martha the band and I just love their sometimes melancholy garage-sound. Also I like the acoustic songs. I still remember seeing them live in my hometown when they were touring with Erica Freas and asked them for a setlist to have something to remember the great concert. It´s hanging on my wall since that day :) Ninehundredninetynine

More raw (rawer?) than their newer stuff. Still quite grand and great. Like a raw pop with great riffs. thorseus

In a more perfect world, this band would blaring out of every radio on Earth. The lyrics, the vocals, the just-outta-teens snark and earnestness... so much to love. paulimboden
