verse:
i told you that
i was afraid to call
and you told me
that you wouldn't mind at all
but i still folded all my cards
i never win
but i still look at you
every now and then
verse 2:
doctors say that they
have seen it all before
and mothers will say the same
though they are never bored
but i still run to you
don't think i'll ever quit
i can never catch my breath
you never let me sit
chorus:
well she never told me
that if i didn't call
she'd take her life and
i would lose it all
she is an ocean
my head is sinkin in
swim through the motions
let the water burn my skin
verse 3:
she could always make me see
the things i never could
but i could never make her see
the things she really should
i'm too stuck in one world and
she's on a different page
think maybe if i called her more
she would act her age
Verse 4:
i wish that i could say that
i have seen it all before
but everytime you leave
it makes me wanna lock the door
but i'll keep running to you
don't think i'll ever quit
i can never catch my breath
you never gave a shit
Woozy, rollicking indie rock that's thick and humid, searching vocals set against pealing guitars. Also available on cassette. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2016
Riding the line between indie pop and psychedelic folk, the songs on the latest from The Madeleines are as gorgeous as they are mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2022
