lyrics

Days that were filled with our insolent eyes all that fill up our sides of the will to decide and again in your arms going out of the storm feel the slight though we didn’t go higher. Do what reciprocates into the rift of the light you would bend and bloom in. Strange alibis moving out of the race you were welled up, and you couldn’t tell I believe all the wires burrowed in your veins you will grow to hate.
Now time is stained all the fillers and things that have cramped up your arms you’ve no will to dissuade in the rays and the air you almost cannot wait you imagine a time you cease to hesitate. How many hours can you disguise you see eyes that you cannot outwait. Fate and the use of the brands and obtuse burning branches that hang looking up to the skies while the barbed wire fence that you live in keeps you awake.

Me and my friend used to go on drives all the time, and a lot of the time i asked what he was playing, and a majority of the songs were from Yo La Tengo. And since i went and listened to And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out i was fan. Never thought i’d buy one of their records for myself. violetstain
