lyrics

Of course it’s a long road
but you don’t care about the unknowns
If you walk ahead of me
I’d rather be alone
While I still have choice over who loves me and who follows me around
I was never gonna be the one who makes sure you’re found

We’ll be back here with our families all crying on the couch
by this time next year
We’ll be back here no matter what they say or what they’ve learned
The things they still believe will find their way through the words that you taught them
They’ll still love us the same ways, haven’t you heard?

Cause I‘ve heard nothing but bad things
I’ve heard nothing but bad things

You are not a hero I hoped you would refuse the call
You got so far ahead because you don’t know better at all
while I still have choices before the options are taken and it’s all on me
I was never gonna be the one to tell you to breathe

Sometimes I look at you and wonder how you’re still alive
It’s less safe than it was less hopeful than before our time
When you jumped from that burning building did you put in the work so someone will catch you
or are you not hitting the ground because you don’t look down you never look down

I hear nothing but bad things
I hear nothing but bad things
About you and what you’re going through

And if today I have hope
Tomorrow I probably won’t
I’d rather live in black-and-white
Than need to keep you in my sight

And though our time may runs out
Before this song will come out
I've found nothing but bad things
I've heard nothing but bad things

I live my life by Good Advice how can you be so reckless
I live my life just wanting to fill out somebody’s checklist
I live my life just to get in some higher-up’s good graces
Watch you get chewed out and chewed up, how did you think you could face it ?

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.

Now I find Answers in Between

To See the Next Part of the Dream
by Parannoul

supported by 4 fans who also own “Long Road”

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
