lyrics

You breathe like a tide that's coming in
And I swear I feel it in the swell
Someone's going to leave soon

But when I'm sleeping by myself
Yeah, the feeling gets worse
And then I'm just another sad kid
With another sad curse

And I can't forget about the way you had your lips pursed.

You turn the world on its head
And I'm just a spinning top
At the whim of your left hand.

But when I'm spinning out alone
Yeah, the feeling is worse
And then I'm just another sad kid
With another sad curse

And I can't forget about the way you were too shy to go first.

A late lunch, what a good time
To punch me when I'm down.

And when I'm thinking to myself
Yeah, the feeling gets worse
And then I'm just another sad kid
With another sad curse

And I can't forget about the way you said it with your lips pursed.
And I can't forget about the way you were too shy to go first
And I can't forget about the way you said you felt trapped in these sheets
It's funny, 'cause I always felt safe when I could find your feet.

Songs about Friends
by The Football Club

Folk-Punk?! What! Used to love them to the point where I embraced Markwell's self-destructiveness, self-pity, contempt towards her friends, and delusions of grandeur. Do you know why? she had the soul, genius, emotional whimsy and dare to meet us in a world where getting a dog tattoo is "too ambitious," James Joyce is an insult, and whoever says "no" to romantic advances gets crushed in the end. Let's just say, she has more bones to pick with the males than any other artist I'm aware of. OQ
