lyrics

The traffic stops around you now you can’t walk if you want to
Used to block out the sirens, but that’s not what haunts you
They’re giving you reasons to give up that’s all they’re into
And less not to give in

Hold to the breaking point, said you’d wait for it
You saw a way out you chased for it
Call on your strength to carry on and you wondered why you did
You said you wondered why you did

It feels naive now but you were hopeful back then
If you were my age now, I would have lost a friend
You know as well as anyone
They’ll find new ways to hurt us
Borrowed time and borrowed shame
They're too far gone and they won't change

To the breaking point, you swore you’d wait for it
You had to hope, didn't you, so you chased for it
Called on your strength to carry on you said you wondered why you did
You said you wondered why you did

No one can tell you to hang on or let go
No one can tell you whether you made the right call
No one can tell you to be safe
But something made you stay
Something made you stay

Eyes closed you’re aimless
But they fire when they see you open
We won’t live like they want
It’s a matter of choosing the poison

Eyes closed you’re aimless
But they fire when they see you open
We won’t live like they want
If we choose to live at all

You’ll never figure out if it was better to be better as the world got worse you didn’t think it would first
Selfishly I know that I want you here
I want you here as the world gets worse

about

Fell From The Tree Rochester, New York

I fell from a tree.
I am in a fog and I catastrophize.
I am not ENOUGH, but that's ok.

To See the Next Part of the Dream
by Parannoul

supported by 4 fans who also own “Breaking Point”

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
