can you feel the rush of love will you hold my hand when you look into my eyes do you understand take it with you take it wherever you go when you feel like you want to die and you feel all alone look around you it’s all you need let what’s simple give you hope breathe in breathe out with me now shut your eyes then wake with clarity we stray from love like an atom bomb with the slaughter promises but the love you think you know you want is as gentle as a lamb

you wake you’re born you scream and everybody swarms you sleep and you grow you walk and everybody knows you race just like a motor car and take a cookie from the jar you push a few buttons and you brave the dark then you break everybody’s heart i went through what you went through and i know you you’re taught a lot and most of which you just forgot you dance you kiss there ain’t nothing that you wanna miss you drive around that motor car and leave the rubber on the tar you break a few laws and you’re dangerous and then you break somebody’s heart you work and you learn and pretty soon your muscles hurt you spend and you owe and then you make a family of your own you ask yourself where time has gone and you wonder if you’ve done enough you take a certain pride in all you can but you remember back when you were young i don’t really even think i know you you wake you’re old and everything is moving slow you sleep but you know life is a battle zone you’re still here to talk about it i’d imagine luckier than most and every breath you breathe you cherish so breathe it out until you don’t

does it taste like poison can you put it in your mouth are those inside you boiling just dying to get out or has this misforsaken daughter cast another spell does it taste like water tasteless as the rain have you found another that met you halfway i found someone and wondered what you might say what is what you taste does it taste like wine cause what you taste is sold or prickly strangling vines of the memories old do you see the writing on the wall i’d like to think you’re happy i’d like to think you know i’d like to think you’re lonely and i’d like to think you’ll show yourself in time i hope that you’re just happy i found a piece of paper and i wrote it all down this mood is striking danger i suppose i could be wrong but if i call it like i see it i’ll see it like i’m used to

Numb And The Slumber
04:01

there’s amber on the evening and it’s leaving you alive
those little ghosts ain’t leaving till you reassign the mind those evil barkin’ demons peak from time to time pairin‘ up with seasons marchin’ down your spine the winter whip’s a-crackin’ blanketed in snow november just attacked it and it gave the wind a blow it‘s funny how there’s comfort from what i do not know my back my legs and my head hurt am i brave enough to go i’ll sit and out wait you like misfits in the mornin’ keepin‘ you inside frosty covered warnings like the scene of a crime and given what’s been given to me given it’s all right there must be something more relieving than copin’ with the bite though many times i’ve wondered can i undergo the chill the numb and the slumber that accompanies the cold one more ugly winter one more ugly low that old man’s ugly sister gets her kicks from closing roads

Take Care Pt. 2

if you can find another that’ll watch you when you go
then by all means get goin’ don’t you let me slow you down and if they whip you up some dinner i know it won’t taste like mine and everything they don’t deliver is gonna make you realize what you lost i don’t ever want to see you go i don’t mind taking good care of you i’ll sit right beside you to the moon and back but i need you to take care of me too i need you to discover how much i think for you you’re more than over any other lover i’ve given myself into now everybody says don’t sleep angry but tonight i’ve got no choice the sum of the parts is devastating hearts and the proof is in the voice i know you make me coffee and you entertain my mind but lately i’ve been burnin’ just knowin’ why you smile and it’s me so before you point that finger take a look at what you got and if it still don’t make things better then you ain’t got all that much

Through With Blue

i’ve had my share of hurt but it’s much worse to abide
and live so god damn trustless and in line with no real reason why i’m gonna change my tune but it’s changin’ on it’s own and i realize now more than ever before where my mystery mountaintop belongs i’m playin’ and i’ll say everything everyone wishes that they could say and i’m not wastin’ time or frustration on anything that’s usually in my way cause i’m through with blue there’s a woman i know and she’s part of my machine and it took awhile but i saw light and i believe this woman i adore she taught me how to dream cause if this whole thing don’t work out i know she’ll be right there standing next to me

The Sudden Lovelys, from Nordeast Minneapolis, describe their unique and earnest sound as "Aggressive Folk." Daniel writes and plays guitar, sings, and kicks a vintage red suitcase like a bass drum. Paige also sings, slaps a cymbal with a tambourine, and plays a slew of funky hand percussion. There is a humble passion and honesty in their live show that cannot be denied. ... more
