What will it look like when we’re back together again
Memories of being with you, dancing and singing the blues
I wonder how long we can go, millions of tiny battles
Inside each and every one, these long nights haven’t won
Don’t let it rule you
No don’t let it pull you down
Focus on that tiny light, pinpoint it, keep up the fight
If you are hearing me now, you’ve muscled that devil out
Don’t let it rule you
No don’t let it pull you down
One drop feels like rain, reel yourself back in
Blow that deep breath out, don’t let it pull you down

Because It's Blue

Because It’s Blue
Because it’s blue, I’m drawn to it
Because it’s blue, I can’t look back
Because it’s blue, I’ve got it bad
Because it’s blue, I’m drawn to it
It’s time forget all the tricks I learned
That I fine tuned, to make it work
It’s time to let it go, all the habits formed
When I was sitting in the back seat, watching life happening to me
Nevermind, nevermind
Forget that special name that I called you by
We’re not meant to hold on, we’re not meant hold on
Because it’s blue, I’m drawn to it
Spiraling again, my brain is weak
The blue pulls me further in the deep
Then I feel my gills take in the open sea
And remember what it is that calls to me
I finally feel the air come into my chest
Like all of these year were just a test
To see how long that I could hold my breathe
Until I collapsed from my own stubbornness

Reacting To You

Reacting to You
I walk through the door and see you standing free
And my heart drops like an atom bomb inside me
I feel the pounding right between my eyes and ears
I think I missed the boat, I will stay right here
Swallowing rocks, I manage to
Reach for my pockets, my feet are glued
Give me an inch, I’ll take a mile
Give me a smile and all the while I’m reacting to
Reacting to you
I can’t believe this but I know it’s true
And I feel it just as much as I think that you do
I crave the nights a lot, a darker view
But above everything I crave, I crave you
Swallowing rocks, I manage to
Reach for my pockets, my feet are glued
Give me and inch, I’ll take a mile
Give me a smile and all the while I’m reacting to
Reacting to you
I know and I know and I know I’ll never forget, dear
All the miles in my head just to arrive
To arrive here

I Hate The Night
I hate the night now, it’s never been so loud
Trains are charging at each other in my head
I kill the voices with reinforcements
They tell me things that just aren’t true or so I’m told
I would lay my life across the tracks for you
But what good would that ever do for you or me
It’s wild and open, but I wait to step in
So queasy, I can’t find that push that once came to shove
I wear my worry, like it’ll save me
Suspicion hides behind these eyes, no way to rest
I would lay my life across the tracks for you
But what good would that ever do for you or me
All those heavenly moments, remind me of some wholeness
And fill me up with shining sun and I’m enough
I would lay my life across the tracks for you
But what good would that ever do for you or me

Four Walls

I could listen to the guitar riffs from "in Love..." all day. This is a fitting swan song for an criminally overlooked KC band. I dare say they're Sleater-Kinney without the jagged edges. I'm so proud of what these three ladies will become.

This is the goods. Often, new music takes several listens to appreciate, but this hits home right out of the gate.
