lyrics
All our acts of love are stained and drowned in stage blood.
Breaking tension at the wrist, attention's not enough.
I feel you hanging from the lines when all is done.
But I listened to your song when I slept on and off.
You only sounded out one word and there I lost a month
To try and haunt you, try and haunt you.
I'd be your perfect mirror in miniature, you see?
If you were only scared to break me more than you have been.
I'd be your perfect mirror in miniature, you see?
If you were only scared to break me more than you have been.
All our acts of love are running fog machines,
Billowing in lights that darken after scenes.
Everything's disappearing just as easily.
You scratch the notes out, you lose your hair.
I watch from a distance, I learn to share.
But I really don't want to. I don't want to.
And I go around pretending I don't want you.
All I wanted was a part to run through.
All I wanted wasn't mine to cling to,
But I still do.
I'd be your perfect mirror in miniature, you see?
If you were only scared to break me more than you have been.
I'd be your perfect mirror in miniature, you see?
If you were only scared to break me more than you have been.
Introspective pop songs with transcendent melodies offer a joyful meditation on staying present in a world that often moves too fast. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 16, 2023
