Everything went black
My eyes are closing
I try to concentrate
I struggle, clench my teeth
Am I old enough
Did I fail enough
Is quitting an option
There are so many questions
I stumble and my voice is shaking
I’m neither rich or smart, nor do I care
But I’ve learned much in life
Is quitting an option
Learned all the stuff I hate
Learned that stories can end
Can end with a simple sentence
And I understand now
I’m not perfect
I’m not that strong
Learned that my mind can’t stand
Not yet
I understand now
I’m not that simple
I’m not giving up
Everything went black
My eyes still closed
I curse aloud
I’m fine, I regret nothing
In 2013 i heard them the first time live without knowing. The first time listening to music like this - now, like 7 years later, it is still companying me in tough times. So frikkin emotional its chilling Joey
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
