lyrics

You threw me out on the sidewalk last night
You dumped my clothes out the window too
I threw rocks at the glass panes and wood
We need to talk I needed a word with you

we made up on the couch on the floor
but you told me i needed to lose
a few pounds on the body I love
I went to work and I talked with a man I grew up with

He said, "Oh, a sad sight you are. You are slowly unraveling me. Oh, no tears on a Tuesday you need better than what he can give you"

He held me tight for longer than normal
I cuddled close I couldn't believe it
he whispered words in my ear it was nice
but it wasn't the same when he called me the wrong name

I ran off down the street down the corner
and he caught me in his arms
and once again he delivered a comfort
a need i had known ever since i was young

he said "oh a sweet sight you are you are slowly unraveling me. Oh, I 'd kill for your heart, what a strange man indeed who would lose you."

oh a sweet sight you are you are slowly undoing me
oh I'd kill for your heart. What a strange man indeed who could lose you.

This album is pretty much a rollercoaster. Starting off with Desolate.Magnificent, it slowly builds up with it's ambient and foggy sound. You keep thinking to yourself "This is nice and all... but when does the rollercoaster even start?" when right at the 2:47 mark you get launched backwards. Great fucking album. Keep it up! It's ambient sections always help me relax and calm down, it's energetic sections... well energize me!! zo
