lyrics
Oh, let's get lost & let the blind lead the blind
When skin exhausts & the remainder of time
Is uphill, sweet, & quicker than light
If nice will get you nowhere
Then why don't you try turning up the spite
Try to break this horse
Yeah maybe give up the ghost
Orion was dead wrong
Sky wasn't pinpricks, but shot full of holes
The month was June & the air raid warnings woke up
In a glorious mood with the trains overhead
Let the gods wake the dead
It moves right in
To the west there's a storm and it's just taken form again
Try to catch this horse
Yeah maybe ride it out
You listened to the pillars, lushes, lakeside rushing -love you,
but I'm on safer ground
Try to tame this horse
Try to tame this horse
Try to tame this horse
Try to tame this horse
Try to take this horse
Yeah maybe she'll come around
Orion was dead wrong
Run until all the fences are down

Woozy, rollicking indie rock that's thick and humid, searching vocals set against pealing guitars. Also available on cassette. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2016
