The Future

sometimes i’m a bag of broken glass
what am i supposed to do with that?
i’ve been walking out by the fires, just to walk around
i’ve been walking out by the wire, just a-talking loud
i don’t wanna know about the future
i’m treading water here in the now
i don’t wanna know about the future
sometimes i’m a floating cloud of gas
sometimes i’m a smoking rifle blast
i’ve been walking out by the fires, just to walk around
i’ve been walking out by the wire, just a-talking loud
i don’t wanna know about the future
i’m treading water here in the now
i don’t wanna know about the future anyhow

god i love how she looks at me
and sets my eyes on fire
she’s on high and cooks for me
and equals my desire
please be my, please be my love
please be my, please be my love
i know i don’t deserve to be
i’m out there every night
she’s the kind i like to see
she comes to squeeze me tight
please be my, please be my love
please be my, please be my love
don’t change at all, not for me
don’t change at all, not a thing, not a thing
god i love how my eyes can gaze
right straight through hers to see
she’s so kind and sweet to me
that’s all she has to be
please be my, please be my love
please be my, please be my love

Take My Brains Out
03:13
|
|
||
|
i can’t stay the same
i can take the blame
i’m only trying to breathe again
‘cause this needs oxygen
i’m lonely
and i can’t remember
where i lost my place
‘midst total disgrace
take my brains out
they don’t like me
they can’t help me, no way
i can’t say no more
or make no metaphor
i’m only trying to break in peace
pry and take a piece
i’m lonely
and i can’t remember
how i lost my place
‘midst total disgrace
take my brains out
they don’t like me
they can’t help me, no way

Wildfire Love
02:05
|
|
||
|
i don’t love the world
only when she’s near
yeah i got a girl
who makes nightmares disappear
cause it’s a wildfire love
death from above
and when she drops the bomb
i’m in love
i don’t love myself
seems so hard to do
but i ain’t never felt
like i feel when i’m with you
and it’s a wildfire love
death from above
and when she drops the bomb
i’m in love
i can’t stand to think
that all this too must pass
so i switch lanes and pass
and i can’t get by too fast
back to my wildfire love
death from above
and when she drops the bomb
i’m in love

Cold Advice
03:26
|
|
||
|
meet me on the way down
turn me halfway round
tired of myself but i see you
meet me when it’s dark out
sparks and breaths blown out
tired of myself but i see you
tired of this suffering review, too
when you walk on clouds
they let you down
when the sun goes out
you’re gonna wake up on the moon, alone
can you take it?
i don’t know if you can make it
when you walk on ice
that’s cold advice
it’s gonna take your life
you’re gonna wake up on the moon, alone
can you take it?
i don’t know if you can make it

Already Drowned
02:28
|
|

i didn’t wanna
but i went around the bend
i didn’t wanna
and i would not recommend
i didn’t want a way back into my skull
i didn’t wanna
and i ain’t gonna go
all the way right now
‘cause i’m already drowned
i didn’t wanna
i was swept down in the deep
i didn’t wanna
but i went someplace to sleep
i didn’t wanna
but i vandalized my soul
i didn’t wanna
and i ain’t gonna go
all the way right now
‘cause i’m already drowned
i ain’t gonna go
all the way right now
‘cause i’m already drowned

Free to Fall
03:05
|
|

should’ve thought hard and long
if this was my swan song
but i died and came back and i died, now I’m here
steady making me disappear
in hell for the third time today
there in my mind, where I’m free
free to fall defenselessly in love with you
i’m scared, that’s true, i don’t care
should’ve caught pheromone
off in some brighter zone
but i died and came back and i died now I’m here
steady making me disappear
in hell for the third time today
there in my mind, where i’m free
free to fall defenselessly in love with you
i’ll dare. i do need you there
everyone i was is gone
everyone i was is gone
everyone i was is gone
i don’t wanna hurt no more
everyone i was is gone
everyone i was is gone
everyone i was is gone
i don’t wanna hurt no more
because it makes me cry and i could die

Indifferent Stars
03:25
|
|
||
|
send me out in space tonight
i’ll be the only one
send me out in space tonight
where i can’t hurt no one
if i should turn and face the light
send me out in flames tonight
the indifferent stars
i won’t have to blame tonight
to be where you are
and i’m not gonna waste the light
how does it feel so good and hurt so bad?
how does it feel all wrong to be happy?
i guess it’s time to let it go
i guess it’s time to let it go now
i guess it’s time to let it go
the hate that weighed me down then disappeared

In Between the Waves
02:03
|
|
||
|
it’s the same day as yesterday
when i’m in between the waves
i could float on my back
my heart attacks and takes my breath away
once i figure out my plan
i’ll be in the basement
it’s the same brain i can’t sustain
and i can’t break it out of my head
‘til you come floatin’ by, say “hi”
and i’m up in a dream instead
once i figure out my plan
i’ll be in the basement
can i say goodnight?
what a waste, i tried
then i’ll say goodbye just like he died

I'm Sorry
04:08
|
|
||

seeing life waste away right in front of me
shouldn’t i waste away infinity?
do you really know where you are or where you’re gonna be
or who to take the fight towards when you’re the enemy?
i’m sorry, i’m sorry, i’m sorry
i wanted you to know
wanted you to know that i’m sorry, i’m sorry
i wanted you to know
shouldn’t i break the line ahead of time?
seems like a wasted line, so i decline
do you ever know where you are or where you’re gonna be
or who to take the fight towards when you’re the enemy?
i’m sorry, i’m sorry, i’m sorry
i wanted you to know
wanted you to know that i’m sorry, E, i’m sorry
i wanted you to know
gaze at the stars and stare
i see her everywhere
if it’s a dream i won’t ever wake
gaze at the moon to find
what’s wrong with my mind
the look in her eyes is all it would take
come on, baby, you know
been so low for so long
it’s all wrong. all wrong
i’m sorry, i’m sorry, i’m sorry
i wanted you to know
wanted you to know that i’m sorry, E, i’m sorry
i wanted you to know
wanted you to know that i’m sorry
i’m sorry, i’m sorry. i’m sorry
i’m sorry. i’m sorry. i’m sorry

Mystical Numbers
by The Rectangle Shades

Armstrong’s voice reminds me of Sugar and track one fits comfortably in that realm, but there's more to this band than throwback. Prolific bandmate Davis compliments with performances and songwriting that differ enough to elevate the sound without creating contrast that disrupts the continuity of so many great records with two strong writers. As usual, strong production from Purcell rides a line between reverence and experimentation for an easy listen that never seems stale or unchallenging.
