lyrics

I knew a place where we could stay
I knew a place where we could hide away
From the rest of the Earth
Under wrinkled bedsheets basking in the presence of no one else
Recycling old ambitions and repeating it over
So why did you bother even asking the question
I still lie awake with my head in the ceiling fan
Contemplating where my end is

We’ll leave the past to rot
I know we’re both very distraught and I'm sorry
If we keep moving we can avoid death
Crashing symbols and an infinite time loop
I wanna stop living in this conundrum
So let’s go visit the garden after this is all over
And forget about the rest of our lives

We can hide under warm sheets
We can sing the same songs
We can stretch our bodies upon the earth
Do you feel the catharsis
Every time you reminisce
Upon that day when the season changed
And you look so good in your new sweater
And I hope you’re having the time of our lives
But why is it that I’m so scared to live on my own
It’s some weird reality that was forced upon me
Gradually the feeling withers away
And I’m left feeling like complete shit
It’s so embarrassing to look back on the person
I was 5 minutes ago
Leaving a scene of pink blossoms
To distract me from a harsh truth

We’ll leave the past to rot
Do you feel at home in your new place?
Or do you feel like suffocating on your breath?
We'll leave the past to rot
The children in present time distraught
Overcome with emotion
One blessed to see yesterday without the other
And the other a melodramatic mess
But they'll still keep on laughing
That’s all they could ever do
I can see your might from my bedroom window
You’re a 50 foot giant conquering earth

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
