SWARM OF BEES

i let someone take everything from me
i let him take it too far
sulking sinking past never before me
i cant shake it, i cant shake this feeling
i want to stop having nightmares
every night, its fucking with me
mind so gone, so irrepairable
these eyes, these eyes; seeing the evil in everyone
believe me
when i say
i cant take it
anymore
my body falls
beneath the earth
im falling, im falling
up

I LIKE MY GUN

i like my gun
it gets me where i wanna be
holding my gun
duck down, its finally
over, away, somewhere ill stay
be with her before it kills you
i like my gun
i have no control of it
its going down
please dont tell me you
hate me, again, leave me for dead
its everything that i ever am
i like my gun
i loved you like i only could
i like my gun
ill use it, but i know i shouldnt
yet, no blood, i like my gun
very much
i like my gun

FEELING

this feeling thats so in between
i know exists
so calmly and pleasently
sleeping
a grasshopper in our house
silently she lets me know
i know

NO SHADOW

cha cha, i am nice to you
as nice as i can be
as nice as he allows me
always repeating "i am dull"
im like a turtles shell
so far hidden, now
i dont deserve you
i wanna be like you
so innocent, so sincere
no shadow hides your face
no shadow, no shadow now
cha cha, animal in me
i feel evil inside
i feel evil, now
mother, im speaking to you now
can you hear my whisper
"so far hidden now"
SHADOW HIDDEN NOW!!!!!
i want to be able to talk about the things i like,
and how i went to see an old friend,
and how happy it made me feel.
i want to be someone who makes you think
"im glad it turned out this way,"
and write it down proudly for someone else to read.
i want a sun so big and so hot that everything melts away
and abandonment is only a concept
nobody will ever have to think about again.
i want to be there for you the same way
i wish someone was there for me
when i sold a part of myself to stay alive.

a flood in her neighborhood
darker than the sky
driftwood floating in the distance
or is it a body?
(green hair dolly)
be be be be
beatrice

I SAW SOMETHING
01:48
|
|||
|
behind the door, i know
i know, i know
you think you can hide it from me?
oh no, oh no
i have a heavy brain and it tells me the truth!!!
i always know the truth
it never feels right, never makes sense to me!!!
but i know its the truth
and shape falls apart
and breath stops the heart
and memory fades
and kills my brain

Portland shoegaze that plays, as the best representatives of the genre do, with huge, hollow atmosphere against intimate observations.

The mix of shoegaze, punk, and noise from this Seattle band is notable for its urgency and bright, foregrounded vocals.
