lyrics
Firefly
Neon guts and toxic insides
Glowing bright but only mother’s eyes
Will see you the way I did
The blackest ice scraped your lover’s hands
And what a price you paid for taking acid just that night
In the morning you called to say
“I could see wavelengths and you were on mine
Why don’t we just settle down and see
It all fall apart ourselves?”
I’m alone
I always have been and it feels like home
I won’t drop by, I won’t pick up the phone
Unless it’s you calling
I’ll squash you slow
And write my songs in neon ink that glows
Tell me something I don’t already know
Not the same bullshit like
“I could see wavelengths and you were on mine
Why don’t we just settle down and see
It all fall apart ourselves?”
Neon guts and toxic insides
Glowing bright but only mother’s eyes
Will see you the way I did
The blackest ice scraped your lover’s hands
And what a price you paid for taking acid just that night
In the morning you called to say
“I could see wavelengths and you were on mine
Why don’t we just settle down and see
It all fall apart ourselves?”
I’m alone
I always have been and it feels like home
I won’t drop by, I won’t pick up the phone
Unless it’s you calling
I’ll squash you slow
And write my songs in neon ink that glows
Tell me something I don’t already know
Not the same bullshit like
“I could see wavelengths and you were on mine
Why don’t we just settle down and see
It all fall apart ourselves?”

How to Socialise & Make Friends
by CAMP COPEsupported by 40 fans who also own “Wavelengths”
Incredibly raw, honest lyricism with the vocals to match. Love the story telling throughout the record.

Beautiful, witty, haunting, and catchy as hell.
go to album -
A shimmering wall of noisy alt rock with mesmerizing hooks and blown-out psychedelic atmosphere a là Lilys and Sonic Youth.
go to album -
Max Goldstein makes "acoustic" music that is a unique mix of guitar, experimental electronics, and percussion. Make indie rock weird again.
go to album -
Nothing not to love about the jangly sounds of the Vovos, who blend catchy melodies with whip smart lyrics.
