lyrics

I am shaped by the way that you use your body.
I am moved by the way, that you talk and shift.

The twitch of an eye, the shuffling of hands,
They fall from you, as half-made plans.

I am shaped by the way that you use your body,
Am I ashamed to confess its control over me? 
Do I want to do this?
Do I want to do this?
I don’t want to do this.
I don’t want to do this.

She's tucking in the sheets,
With tears in her eyes -
I think it will be fine this time.
But sometime soon, I'll surely crack,
This weight, this urge will break my back.
And with that crack, my bones will splinter
And pierce two hearts that hoped for better.

Rock is nowhere near my favorite genre, but every once in a while I find an amazing exception. This record has such a unique sound and I'm in love with it. Extremely excited for the next release. A.T.L

An endless skyline of dusky golden light over Moreton Bay that's where this record lives. I always admire when bands can work imagery of their city into songs. This is especially nice when it comes to the areas in and around Meanjin, a place we hear far too little of. Demetry Malahoff
