lyrics

White top taking
A real hard look
He’s a ham hand hook
A cracked screen gathering
On muddied carpet of scratchcard failure
A Good Book pusher who lies
‘It’s getting easier’
The running of the bulls
The running from the ball
Is another night to turn towards
A yearning for that first good fight
Lit so well by bus stop light
When you feel reckless
Like an amusement park
Like it’s even dark
The dogs aren’t howling
One last text saying ‘yeah. Didn’t feel it’
I like myself in the advert script
The running of the bulls
The running from the ball
It’s another night to come back from
The fountain where those drunkards pass out gracefully
I could’ve been so much more thoughtful
Let you float to the rescue boat
Sooner or later
It will come pull you under
Don’t kill yourself for paper

In a more perfect world, this band would blaring out of every radio on Earth. The lyrics, the vocals, the just-outta-teens snark and earnestness... so much to love. paulimboden
