I've got empty headed losses. I've got friends in wooden boxes. The paper says to stay indoors. I've got my sister living downtown, working harder with her hands now. I wonder if she still remembers how to bow like ballerinas do? Read a book it ruined my day. I caught a bird and it flew away. My conversation with God ended when I fell asleep. I've gotten tired of having patience, sleeping late and driving alone, floating past everyone I've ever known. So I taught myself how to fall asleep while walking. It's got the best of me. Cause I can't hide these things these days. (It takes time, yeah, I know I got it. Get some sleep, yeah, I know I got it. It's just life yeah, I know I got it. Yeah, I got it.) Read a book it ruined my day. Caught a bird and it flew away. My conversation with God ended when I fell asleep. I've gotten tired of having patience, sleeping late and driving alone, floating past everyone I've ever known.
Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil PaintedDogs
