Our fingertips are numb, linking hands
around your coffin as your world ends
chasing the red robins.
I’m sorry you never made summer, fall, or winter,
as you ride away.
We cut our teeth on laughter and ambition,
and now your smile burns with the sunrise,
love and sorrow.
No man I won’t return the dreams we stole.
There’s laughter in the graveyard tonight.
There’s open wounds sealed with wax.
Candlelight, cards, and chords.
When I feel like you’re still around I feel like I’m home.
The seasons still turn, the kids still yearn,
but now your bedroom is a stagnant memoir.
Your parents still laugh and your sisters still in school
and the highway is still calling my name,
but none of us will ever be the same again
Six more starry nights to numb our pain.
I remember when you told me you weren’t afraid to die.
So fill it up, so we’ll fill it up
and watch it drain away
Grab a glass, reminisce, we’ll take this day by day.
New York hardcore meets classic thrash metal meets Jane's Addiction-esque alternative on the Brooklyn crushers' sensational debut. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 13, 2023
Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2022
A pop-punk album full of both angst and maturity. A lot of this album is about growing up, but I've been consistently coming back to this album for over 5 years and it never gets old. evan_burman
