lyrics

I’m not myself
Bloodless, tired and underwhelmed
I feel numb
All the days blur into one

We found a thing
To still the constant nagging hum
And together
We kissed the setting sun

Waiting. Waiting. Waiting.

And there’s a voice in my head
Telling me I better hold on
Suddenly it’s kicking in
Now I’m looking at the neon lights

Moonlight shivers on the water
Black dog shadows in the corner
Red eyes stumble in the gutter
Faces melting in the mirror

Take a walk
Get some air, get some control
See the city
In a real life Kaleidoscope

Smile and laugh
Paranoia creeping up my back
Wreck my head
Reset my soul again.

Waiting. Waiting. Waiting.

And there’s the voice in my head
Telling me I better hold on
Cos it’s still kicking in
And I’m looking at the neon lights

We were main support to this amazing Dutch band back in 2019 and they absolutely SMASHED their set on the last night of their UK and Euro tour. Such lovely people with classic grunge / garage sounds. Empty Friend

Whoa. Imagine having slugs coming out of your mouth like that. Slug slime probably has some healing medicinal properties. What would it do if it accumulated in the throat. Hail The Mother. Honor The Mother. Respect The Mother. ♥️💜💝 Michael
