Troubles hits in the morning when i wake up
And leaves with my third drink of alcohol
I am stuck behind closed door
Because of you
A messy room for an empty man
Tonight, i’ll curse you.
The ash in my eye is fierce
The splinter in my hand has a name.
Today feels strange
I can’t help thinking of running far from you
And your dirty ways
You said it was easy
It’s not that easy.
You hooked a flame to my foot as i was sleeping
Took me out on a walk in a dry grass field
You are a bad news dealer in a charming suit
Bitting teeth and sharped claws
Tonight, i’ll curse you.
The burnt on my tongue is wild
The knife on my back has a name.
Today feels strange
I can’t help thinking of running far from you
And your clumsy ways
You said it was easy
It’s not that easy.
Today feels strange
I can’t help thinking of running far from you
And your pretty ways
You said it was easy
It’s not that easy.
Dark and seething post-punk from Cincinnati that's appealingly janky enough to make a tired genre feel fresh and urgent. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 31, 2023
