lyrics

Sore Sorry Mess

You wanted to make a clean break
you said there was nothing more to say
you took it upon yourself
to put our love on the shelf
you packed up your things
and you went your own way

my beard smells like the Bourbon
that's dribbled down on to my chin
our love's torn asunder
it leaves me to wonder
if I'll ever see you again

now I'm a sore, sorry mess
and now I can't get any rest
your love has faded
so you relocated
you left me without a forwarding address

so now I"ll go off on another bender
and I'll check my email in vain
it leaves me to wonder if I'll get out from under this
and I'll ever see you again

I’ll bet you're out drinking tonight
at some beachside bar
bathed in the moonlight
will someone there call you a cab
you got someone there getting your tab?

so many questions unanswered
so many dreams unfulfilled
you went out the door
while I slept on the floor
stupid on whiskey and pills

so here I go on another bender
as I sing this tired refrain
It leaves me to wonder if I'll get out from under this
and I'll live to see you again

I don't know how to describe the feeling I get from listening to this album besides a sense of relief, if you catch my drift. Besides feelings, musicianship is all spades, great hooks/grooves that expand into solid forms. Overall 9.5/10, thank you Silver Scrolls/Three Lobed Recordings. FraterOiram

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
