Have patience with the lost
For they don’t know the cost
Retrace their every move
They’ve got nothing left to prove
As I watch you idly walk, I am disgraced
I’ve watched you burn a bridge to everyone displaced
It was not your fault but my alone mistake
To fall for every single word you say
I’m thinking for myself
It’s better for my health
What once a bitter fool
Is now outgrowing you
As I watch you idly walk I am disgraced
I’ve watched you burn a bridge to everyone displaced
It was not your fault but my alone mistake
To fall for every single word you say
//
I will not take part inside this liar’s game
I thought I could, but I don’t have the faith
It was not your fault but my alone mistake
To fall for every single word you say

Talk

Cuz I don't wanna talk
It only serves make things worse
And when we fight, it bums me out
‘Til it hurts like hell
Let’s meet for coffee
At 7:30
And I'll tell you how I've been
Cuz I've been drifting
In and out now
Was it “four months” or was it for years?
And I said…
Do you wanna get away from here?
Where nobody knows you
And nobody speaks your name
Do you wanna get away from here?
And if we make it out
Do you think we'll be the same?
The bars are crowded
Our glasses clinking
But I don't see your face
I left you sitting
By the TV
Forgot to ask you one last thing
Do you wanna get away from here?...
So I think I'll walk
All by myself
From the South Side
To the West Side
In a fit of reverie
From the dark into the light
And I think you can see me now
I’m walking tall, I’m walking proud
Just a shell of who I was
But not a drop of what I wanna be

Plans

Lately,
I’ve been
Not myself
I’m hoping
You see
The good in me
Because I don’t know
Who I am
Anymore
But I think you do
So I’ll hold on tight
And not let go
I won’t let go
I’m hoping
For something
That I can’t see
In front of me
What can’t I see?
And what of it?
All of those
Plans for her?
The plans for him?
The plans for me?
Because I don’t know
Just what is real
Anymore
But I thought you were
So I held on tight
But I let go
If there’s any plan for me,
Can we just get to that part, please?
Because I’m sick of spending
My whole life down on my knees
And I scream
Into the open black
But nothing’s there
No answer came back
I can’t wait for us to be okay
Are we okay?
When will we finally be okay?

Call

When I miss you, it’s all black
I don’t think you’re ever coming back
You should be here in my arms this time
Cuz it’s not right when you go away
I’m begging and pleading, “(please) stay one more day”
You never do and I know that you never will
And I want you
Do you want to
Spend the night?
And I feel this
But does it feel right
Lying in your bed alone at night?
Something’s wrong I can see it now
We’ve stopped wearing smiles,
We’re just wearing frowns
And you barely talk half of the time
But it’s alright, you can let it show
You’d rather be proud than vulnerable
Why can’t you say what’s on your mind?
And I want you
Do you want to
Spend the night?
And I feel this
But does it feel right
Lying in your bed alone at night?
So call me up
And tell me that you love me, that you miss me
So call me up
And tell me that you want me, that you need me
So Call Me Up
And tell me that you Love Me
(you’ve got) A fragile heart
With a lover’s scar
That was never broken
At the start
Now you’re here with me
I’m not sure what I even mean (to you)
But if I don’t mean much
Can I be enough?

I’ve never been the kind of person you could count on
But I like to think I am
All these times I’ve let you down
Tell me, do they make you think about me now?
I will see you this coming summer
We’ll watch warm nights turn to cold days
In the early of September
We'll pack up and go our separate ways
Why don't you want me?
Why don't you care?
Why are you looking through me
Like I'm not standing here?
And I am waiting
But never seeing
This vision I thought one day could be
And I am haunted
Forever sleeping
On the edge of a dream

Drawing on everything from soft-focus C86 like The Field Mice to distortion-heavy shoegaze, “Eulogies” is pop perfection.

Searing heavy indie that’s as brutal as it is melodic, with honeyed vocal harmonies swimming through stormy riffs.

Swirling shoegaze and irresistible vocal melodies define the stargazing latest from the excellent Silktail.
