lyrics
I heard a man on the radio
It felt like something you would’ve said
About how the government’s still lying to us
And we’ll be working til we’re dead
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But I’ve never meant it more
It’s bittersweet
But you can take your time, my friend
T-T-T-Time
I saw a face reflected in the window
For a second, it was you
Your sister said you’re fine
You’re just inside all the time
You should know, you still have nothing to prove
There’s a tale that I read when I was young
About how the people you love leave when their lessons are done
Was it time for you to go?
Do I just grow on my own?
Stay still in the store
Like a kid, just waiting for your tannoy call
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But I’ve never meant it more
It’s bittersweet
But you can take your time, my friend
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But I’ve never meant it more
It’s bittersweet
But you can take your time, my friend
Go ahead and take your time, my friend
Go ahead and take your time, my friend
Maybe with time, we’ll get there again
It felt like something you would’ve said
About how the government’s still lying to us
And we’ll be working til we’re dead
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But I’ve never meant it more
It’s bittersweet
But you can take your time, my friend
T-T-T-Time
I saw a face reflected in the window
For a second, it was you
Your sister said you’re fine
You’re just inside all the time
You should know, you still have nothing to prove
There’s a tale that I read when I was young
About how the people you love leave when their lessons are done
Was it time for you to go?
Do I just grow on my own?
Stay still in the store
Like a kid, just waiting for your tannoy call
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But I’ve never meant it more
It’s bittersweet
But you can take your time, my friend
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But I’ve never meant it more
It’s bittersweet
But you can take your time, my friend
Go ahead and take your time, my friend
Go ahead and take your time, my friend
Maybe with time, we’ll get there again

I waited around to buy this EP and that was a mistake - I should have picked it up right away. Highly recommended for lovers of shoegaze, dream pop, or just good music.

I've had a lot of incredible music discoveries this year and Softcult is in like the top 3. Delicious fuzz, amazing vocals, catchy and memorable. I've listened to this EP for hours and hours straight so I figured it was time to finally buy it lol
