lyrics

I COULDN'T SHADE EVEN IF I WANTED/
COLORS ARE CLEAR/ LIES HAVE BEEN PAINTED
COULDN'T ERASE ALL THAT YOU TARNISHED/
CAN'T MAKE AMENDS DESPITE WHAT I PROMISED.
--
WHO FIRST BROKE DOWN/
WHO LAST LET YOU DOWN.
WAS IT WARRANTED OR ARE YOU PREDISPOSED TO DISPOSE OF THE CLOSEST ONES?
--
START WITH A SKETCH OF ALL THE WRONG PROPORTIONS/
FINISH THE EDGE SO I DON'T JUMP FOR THEM/
WAS THERE A MAK IN YOUR EYE THAT WENT IGNORED /
ARE YOU A CHIP OFF THE OLD BLOCK OR A CHIP IN THE PAINT NEVER RESTORED?
--
YOUR APPLAUSE IS AN AWARD FOR MY DEPRESSION.
IF IT SEEMED SEREAL /
THAT YOUR SIMPLE IMPRESSION.

I saw them play last week. They reminded me of the band Sarge. I dunno if this was before or after I learned they were both from Champaign. Joe

the kind of power pop that instantly makes you smile and head bang at the same time. driving guitars reminiscent of magnapop and sweet contrasting vocals reminiscent of velocity girl. Mike D.
