lyrics
My vocation
This is the way it has always been
My life in cycles
Pleasant day but evening haunts
With my companion I fasten locks
And once the laughter has subsided
I’ll know it is safe to come out
And once the laughter has subsided
I’ll know it is safe to come out
A sharing of trivialities
Are they deceivers?
Are they oblivious?
Do they struggle the same?
Evening returns this nightly ritual
With my companion I fasten locks
And once the laughter has subsided
I’ll know it is safe to come out
Though brittle newly this I can fix
Companion warns
I just need a little more time
Another break
Laughter echo
Companion warns
I just need a little more time
This piece goes here
This I can fix
I just need a little more time
I just need a little more time
Laughter echo
This I can fix
I just need a little more time
They’re here
It loops it loops it loops it loops
This is the way it has always been
My life in cycles
Pleasant day but evening haunts
With my companion I fasten locks
And once the laughter has subsided
I’ll know it is safe to come out
And once the laughter has subsided
I’ll know it is safe to come out
A sharing of trivialities
Are they deceivers?
Are they oblivious?
Do they struggle the same?
Evening returns this nightly ritual
With my companion I fasten locks
And once the laughter has subsided
I’ll know it is safe to come out
Though brittle newly this I can fix
Companion warns
I just need a little more time
Another break
Laughter echo
Companion warns
I just need a little more time
This piece goes here
This I can fix
I just need a little more time
I just need a little more time
Laughter echo
This I can fix
I just need a little more time
They’re here
It loops it loops it loops it loops

fucking fantastic - nobody in the game conjures that great emotional spirit of early Husker Du and propels is screaming through each song like a bobsled completely out of control

Nothing like falling in love with a "new" album! Jangly attitude with DNA from across the pond. Love from Dayton.🖤
