Cue the music, let it build
the meloncholy soundtrack of a summer indie film
I'm the quirky, unconvenitional leading guy
I say stupid garbage no ones ever said In their real life
like "I've been taking bigger breaths lately
cause you told me not to hold it waiting for you to commit"
Slow Burn I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
Slow Burn my heart goes pitter patter, pitter patter; batter up, I'm up next
Slow Burn, Slow Burn cuz it’s the only light I know
while theres hope for you and me, I burn real slow
so lets stay home tonight my love
I don't like crowded rooms or the silly folk that fill them up
my introversions not a charming trait
my wits not good for much but thinking up useless stuff to say
Like "My hopes are sleeping quietly in bed
cause you told me not to get them up dreamin' one day you'd commit!"
Slow Burn I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
Slow Burn my heart goes pitter patter, pitter patter; batter up, I'm up next
Slow Burn, Slow Burn cuz it’s the only light I know
while theres hope for you and me, I burn real slow
I didn't Know better, So I didn't Better
I held onto hope when its best I forget her
I didn't Know better, So I didn't Better
Love has a spirit and I followed the letter
I didn't Know better, So I didn't Better
I've loved her so long and I can't quite remember
all of my eggs in her basket won't hatch
but I've counted each one and now I want'em all back!
Slow Burn I'd trade a kiss from her for a laugh to pass your lips
Slow Burn my heart goes pitter patter, pitter patter; batter up, I'm up next
Slow Burn, Slow Burn cuz it’s the only lie I know
while theres hope for you and me, I burn real slow
I love this album because it seamlessly combines a spoken word narrative with music. I love how sonically diverse it is!
I also love the fact that, even though the album is about a very specific life experience, the album contains emotions that feel very universal. Overall, it's a great listen. elainachristine
A solarpunk concept album set in the not-too-distant tomorrow, Tom John Hall uses elegantly wrought art rock to tell a winding tale. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 25, 2023
Bright, gorgeous, bashing songs from these Belgian shoegazers that never lose track of melody amidst the waves of distortion. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 23, 2023
Good god this hits something awful. Absolutely haunting and tragic and personal, and then that little snippet of "Will ye go, lassie, go" at the end sneaks in to hurt you. robin
