I want a fixture to love
I want a failure no one wants to speak of
I wanna write new songs when we touch
I wanna decay so no one gets a sense of us
The kind of romance that feels sharp
I prick my finger and watch my friendships fall apart
And now the room begins to get smart
I must confess I never got this far
I've detached from hopes and dreams that
Just for a minute might've meant something
I'm not gonna do shit today
Open my head, climb into the back
Now would you call yourself my friend?
You are the last one I let in
We could take up residence
Inside my private tenements
Dogs and children a happy home
getting lifted,feeling alone
If you take the latter
I do too
A sunken vessel
For hidden meanings
And I'll paraphrase
The only way that I know how to
The only way show you off and flaunt you
The only way that I could say i want you
Let's get illegible
Let's paint it vermilion
Such a brilliant pigment
One in a million
Chased my demons all the way home
I beseech you, let me alone
Now would you call yourself my friend?
You were the last one I let in
The stiffer the drink
The less I gotta sing from the heart
Very, very few pop bands incorporate jazz influences authentically. Badly performed swing rhythms and bolted on brass have zero to do with jazz.
Really From bucks this trend. Verse blends American Football style guitars, ECM inflected trumpet and atmosphere, and sensitive drumming to create an organic listening experience. David Himmel
First impression was unspecific. But the great quality comes from the details. Voice is perfect. Raw recording gives the necessary pressure to the sound. ATFcollection
Can't select a favorite; heard a local college station play "Incandescent" a couple years back and took notice of how infectious it was... after hearing the whole album I'm hooked; what a great record from front to back. astroluc
