lyrics
Even though they say it'll be fine
It's hard to know
Which feels stay and which will go
So I hide myself with a shield
One made of tunes
Warding off the things I do
'Cuz every night, I pick a fight
And find myself against the knife
That knows just how to cut me all too well
But still I try to make it right
When everything's in black and white
'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to tell
If I'm caving in
I failed to make a decent alibi
To explain
Why I never made a name
It's because it gets way too clear
I'm just scared
Of never getting down these stairs
'Cuz every night, I pick a fight
And find myself against the knife
That knows just how to cut me all too well
But still I try to make it right
When everything's in black and white
'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to tell
If I'm caving in
If I'm caving in
I wanna feel special
When I'm with you
Why don't I feel special
What can I do to fix all these feelings
I wanna feel special
But it's no use
This mirror's not special
Won't let me choose the things that I'm seeing, oh
'Cuz every night, I pick a fight
And find myself against the knife
That knows just how to cut me all too ...
But still I try to make it right
When everything's in black and white
'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to ...
'Cuz every night, I pick a fight
And find myself against the knife
That knows just how to cut me all too ...
But still I try to make it right
When everything's in black and white
'Cuz all these lights makes it hard to tell
If I'm caving in
Effervescent pop without a drop of irony, perfectly geared for fans of the more dance-oriented side of indie music and Tears for Fears. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 2, 2023
Dreamy, intricate guitar pop from Oakland's Absent City; splashes of accordion, sitar, lap steel, and mandolin add textural richness. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 26, 2020
These tracks are straightforward and concise, never relying on gauzy metaphors to complicate her declarations of love. Bandcamp Album of the Day Dec 20, 2017
Spacious, psych-tinged indie rock from Philly; painting in blurry watercolors (but not without percussive headiness). Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 16, 2016
