lyrics

I never thought I'd make it through the weekend. I thought I'd break before I found a way to bend. There's nothing I'm trying to say but that I hope you find a better way.

Another day of nervousness and heartache. Another day of noticing that you don't have to break. You know you're broken anyway, and that it's something you don't have to say.

I want to be a signpost leading the way to better, greater feeling, but nothing's going to make it go away. It's gonna stay with you forever. Just when you think you're getting better, you're gonna watch yourself decay.

You know I'm turned on by a body wasting. I touched you and I felt like I could hear you sing. But silence has a will and a way. How could you think that I was trying to stay?

I never thought I'd make it through the weekend. I thought I'd break before I found a way to bend. There's nothing I'm trying to say but that I hope you find a better way.

Bright gray sheets of roaring and shimmering guitar held aloft by a delicate web of percussion. Post-rock, shoegaze, psych- rock and hints of bluesy folk, all audible and enmeshed. IlsaJ
