about

Maybe it’s nurture over nature, the way we were raised.

lyrics

Well my mother sits and knits
While my father spins the yarns
No one pulls a thread
It could all unravel
A tree in need of care
But no one cares to garden
Like Sisyphus
We find another battle

And then I’ll wreck it, watch me work
It’s all so simple I don’t even need to try
When I leave boy I’ll be sure
I got no one left, no one left to say goodbye

My sister kneads the dough
Before she bakes the bread
Somehow
I always wind up hungry
I can never wait
So I’ll just starve instead
No end to the race
I’m always running

And then I’ll wreck it, watch me work
It’s all so simple I don’t even need to try
When I leave boy I’ll be sure
I got no one left, no one left to say goodbye

My brother bars the door
Before he turns the key
Don’t matter
I’ve always been locked out
Strong is just another way
To say you’re lonely
Can’t get up if
You’ve never been knocked out

And then I’ll wreck it, watch me work
It’s all so simple I don’t even need to try
When I leave boy I’ll be sure
I got no one left, no one left to say goodbye

Each of their songs is layered with contagious hook-filled melodies while keeping true to Haise’s Dylan-esque vocals and cello-laced compositions. ... more
