about
debut single from baltimore soulpunk band nightlife
our homage to the golden era of disco & synth funk thrown thru a modern punk lens
lyrics
i tried to fake it
but i never thought i'd end up
making everything about me
(ooh, everything about me)
yeah, i tried to shake it
but i never could imagine
you would move along without me
(yeah, along without me)
how could you save me
if i stay fuckin up?
(seems i never learn my lesson, baby)
the patience you gave me
i stay runnin up
but i know
this is just how these things go
i've been in touch with my new low
& if i could, i'd let you know
(& show you why i)
shut my mouth so often
cuz no one wants to hear what i've been talkin
& over time i don't know what was real or in my head
& there's a million other things i could've said
yeah, i've tried to keep my feelings covered up
covered up
but i know
this is just how these things go
i've been in touch with my new low
& it's showing
you ain't gotta know it
we've been over this before
(& tell me, where did that go now?)
we dance in perfect circles
i can't help but play myself
one foot forward, three steps backwards
now i can't keep up
i'll show you why i shut my mouth so often
cuz no one wants to hear what i've been talkin
& over time i don't know what was real or in my head
& there's a million other things i could've said
(million other things,
there's a million other things i could've,
million other things)
there's a million other things i could've said
(million other things,
there's a million other things i could've,
million other things)
& i dunno if this feeling's going away
so cut me wide open
look at the scars you left inside
help me make light of the bleeding
til there's nothing left behind
i'll show you why i
shut my mouth so often
cuz no one wants to hear what i've been talkin
& over time i don't know what was real or in my head,
& there's a million other things i could've said
(million other things,
there's a million other things i could've,
million other things)
no, i can't help myself
(million other things,
there's a million other things i could've,
million other things)
& i dunno if this feeling's going away, no
we dance in perfect circles,
i can't help but play myself
one foot forward, three steps backwards
now, i can't keep up with you

I love the positive energy of this album and the progression from social despair to hope that I also find myself swinging between these days. This has been my most played album for 3 years straight! So sick! rodhlann
As an ADHD trans woman this whole album is a very relatable listen but wasted has my favorite lyric "Please inject me with iced coffee and estrogen" Iced Coffee and Estrogen
Catchy, grungy post-hardcore that tempers messy guitar work with sweet, simple hooks; highly suggested for fans of Nothing and Drug Church. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 1, 2024
