i'll never breathe again
it melts into yr skin
dead before it begins
when you die it circles back around
i never thought i'd make it out alive
vomit, vomit, vomit
i'll never be pretty
they don't believe me
promise, promise, promise
that you would never leave me
they'll try to kill me
(ash)
somewhere lost in my peripherals she lays dead in a puddle of innocence
blindsided so, i question her existence and at that her purpose
(sam)
drowning under the thinnest ice
won't no one break me free?
drowning under

(sam & myth)
i can't have who i really want
i'll make a tally mark
for every time i fucked up
on my legs
maybe that'll give me some control
yr body can't be this cold
i'm not afraid of the lions

was it wrong for me to try to leave?
(i know i do this a lot, i don't know what i'm thinking)
was the light actually flickering?
or did i just keep blinking?
was it apparent even at the time
that i want you to be mine
realistically you'd never understand
(i don't know how to talk to you)
and it's so clear how
she thinks she's a dhampir now
you are so much stronger than i
you think that you can't die
i feel alive
they thought you wouldn't survive
(sam & dani)
i bleed out from my mouth for you

yr painted like
a carnival ride
it's not up to me
i don't know what'll happen
you can't rely on anything
you really tried to capture my eye
when you wanted me i could only ponder why
for the rest of my life
but i cannot handle you
and you can't handle me
when we finally sit with ourselves
we're not as grown as we think
i wish i knew
just what made you
assume everyone
is out to get you
you can't handle me
i can't handle you
i still worry
from the things i watched you do
who you try to be
when you follow through
you're still finding out
what you value
yr friends will all say
how "we put all our faith
into things we're not sure of,
an ugly disease that i wish to be cured of"
it's hard to accept that we both really need this
when opening up is a symptom of weakness

i'm gonna hurt the ever-loving fuck out of myself
i think i'm ready to just let this tumble down
it won't be difficult, why are you so weak?
i'll hurt myself so fucking bad
(robbie)
talk me to the edge like it's calling me home
i'll lay myself down like each day gone wrong
skinned knees, swollen eyes, every wound rehearsed
i'll hurt myself so fucking bad

Dead Duck Swimming Pool

i belong to you
you see me in my dreams
the dead ducks in yr swimming pool
i climbed my way to the top of that cliff
i can't believe it, you were gone
and i'm alone inside yr room
i left to find you
dead ducks everywhere
just my luck yr here
my arms turn to mush
what happened to us?
falling down that cliff
who'd i see you with?
why'd you leave so soon?
left me in yr room
run in place
until you see that face
and then you wake up cold
all alone, there's no one here
they left you there

i think i hate my friends
you must abandon yr life
i think it all depends
i'll have to play pretend
for most of my adult life
they haven't realized yet
i couldn't breathe that night
my chest just got too tight
it never feels alright
i'm taking cover
it's taking over

To The Ground

i can't seem to be who i wanna be
blindfolded and tracing my blade
across yr cold and tightened face
in the other room
you cry 'cause i
ruined a pretty concoction of flowers
and things that you saved
but i threw them away
but it's not our time
you wanted to leave with me
but i said no
i don't trust you enough to take me
where you think we need to go
i think we need to go
guess i'm young
but i'm so done
never had the chance to learn anyone
i wonder if there's an end to this cycle
i wonder if there's an end in sight

i stopped writing down all of my good ideas
at this point i'm so far gone
don't think i need them
i stopped writing down all of my good ideas
at this point i'm so fucked up
don't think i can read them
(kris)
i still see myself in you
i still hate it more than you could
have ever hoped for me to
i'm not over this
(sam)
it's so cute when you don't recognize it's dead
they're so quick to leave you hanging by a thread
they're so quick to leave you hanging by yr neck

if you try to justify that again i'm gonna kill you
i'll fucking kill you
someone who's even more lost than you
said it would work
i'm gonna laugh at how afraid you are
of the one you said was so weak
watch yr back
'cause i've had enough of it
you can't be here
i won't let you do this anymore
you believe in a losing ideology

Cars & It's Autumn / Cherry Dip - Single
by Cloud
featured on Bandcamp Radio Jan 21, 2014
go to album
From Cardiff, Rosehip Teahouse combines the quavering sound of shoegaze with the sugary melodies of indie pop.
go to album
Entirely analog, lush melodic pop with a tender heart from L.A. artist Human Barbie sounds bigger than the bedroom project it is.

To See the Next Part of the Dream
by Parannoul
supported by 7 fans who also own “The Lion Who Shot Back”
Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too.
