Oh all the mountain kids are swimming in the lake
They’re off getting lost again, taking what they take.
Me I stand defeated I lost and I’ve retreated to the lake from the lake.
But you, you’ve got so small. But you, you’ve got so small again.
You, you threw it all away. yah
And I’ve lost chapters from the dizziest of nights, and I find comfort in the few
familiar eyes that got away.
But you, you’ve got so small. But you, you’ve got so small again.
You, you threw it all away. Yah
On to the impossible conversation you’re mad I left I’m mad you stayed.
Forgive me for the impossible conversations you’re mad I left well I’m mad you stayed.
Oh all the mountain kids - still swimming away.
As the name implies, there’s something wonderfully spooky about this Philly band—shoegaze with a haunting undercurrent. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 27, 2023
I am pretty sure I love this album because of lines like this:
"Time cast a spell on you and you will forget me
I know I could have loved you, but you would not let me
I will follow you down ’til the sound of my voice still haunts you
You’ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loved you" . Somehow they hit really hard, even though the instrumentation is coercing you to sway back and forth in a positive form. quiet_calm_deceased
