I lost you in the smoke
The world choked on fire
I wrote your name
On every crumbling city wall
I traced my life in crude designs
I dreamed of you one million times
Tallied the days against my skin
Watch it burn
Disappear,
There's nothing left for me here
Changed my name
I cut my hair
We are wolves
Chase the same light of the moon
Distance is the hours between
I'm losing time to every beat
Anything is possible, but not for us
Fate is a like a metronome
A perfect strike– eternal drone
One degree of separation,
Plus three to annihilation
I'll be singing your name
to a broken melody, under Paris
Will somehow managed to make it sound like the band was playing in an empty bar. Maybe that's what they were going for? (I wouldn't be surprised) luna_m
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur

The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
