There’s no saving anything
But I still remember everything
We’ve all got to go someday
(It’s alright it’s ok)
Do my words mean anything
Are they just for filling up the melody
Well all my love just seems to have been a feeling
Sometimes you want be someone
Sometimes you want to be anyone
I say I wash my hands of everything and you see right through my disguise
Cause when we’re all together
Drinking and talking
I just can’t believe we’d ever die
But lying on the floor I come undone
Lying on the floor,
It’s like I hear it for the very first time
I wanted shelter from the storm
Since the day that I was born
But if it seems a teenage dream then what is heaven for?
(Just tell me there’s always room at home)
Sometimes you can’t go it alone
Sometimes you want to just come home
If I put myself in the middle,
I could connect the ends and keep from coming undone
But when we’re all together
Drinking and talking
I just can’t believe we’d ever die
I can’t think my way through this
Being one’s self is not effortless
(It just seems that way)
A meticulously crafted sonic journey, a record that rewards careful attention with a seemingly endless string of surprises from song to song. No Moniker
It is very difficult to make an interesting ambient soundscape, and it's also very difficult to make a good pop song. I don't know how you're supposed to do both at the same time but OMW manages it! No Moniker
