lyrics
Skin and Bones
I woke up
with "go home" written backwards on my cheek
feeling like a cryptic crossword clue
like a jigsaw's missing piece
staying up all night
isn't going to make it last
worrying about it
isn't going to bring it back
i feel like i am carrying water in my hands
if i could believe you, then I'd have a glass
but i can't
We are just skin and bones and blood without love without love.
I want to rest where the trees grow tall
enough for men to feel small, enough, to think straight.
I want to say every kind word i've been thinking of
I want to do it without fear, I want to do it without shame,
I want to do it,
Every single day
We are just skin and bones and blood without love, without love
We Are just skin and bones and blood without love, without love
( I hope my God has a plan for me , for me,
I hope my God has a plan for me, for me..)
An almost anti-blues/anti-rock style that masters classic sounds while mocking the industry’s perceived seriousness. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 27, 2018
This may be Nate Kinsella's "dad record," but the array of experimental sounds and soulful songs on offer evidence a new creative peak. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 23, 2024
