lyrics
Tears fall on the circuit boards
They don't work like they did before
Taking pictures on the bridge
As the sun goes cold and dim
Let's pretend this isn't happening
Like September to a summer fling
Let's ignore the inevitable
You say, like that's a choice
Autumn leaves in the drain
You run from change till it finds you on a perfect day
You tell me that it's a shame
Time moves past us in such a permanent way
In dead oceans still the breakers fold
Strip me down but stop before my soul
Still there's nowhere that I'd rather be
Than the first boat that the sea can't reach
Autumn leaves in the drain
You run from change till it finds you on a perfect day
You tell me that it's a shame
Time moved past us in such a permanent way
And there was something
In the way that we used to disagree
It felt so good
I'm out of air now and I don't feel a thing
I don't feel a thing
Stars in retreat
Plots never ending now with
Nothing in between
Can someone change the batteries again, again, again
They don't work like they did before
Taking pictures on the bridge
As the sun goes cold and dim
Let's pretend this isn't happening
Like September to a summer fling
Let's ignore the inevitable
You say, like that's a choice
Autumn leaves in the drain
You run from change till it finds you on a perfect day
You tell me that it's a shame
Time moves past us in such a permanent way
In dead oceans still the breakers fold
Strip me down but stop before my soul
Still there's nowhere that I'd rather be
Than the first boat that the sea can't reach
Autumn leaves in the drain
You run from change till it finds you on a perfect day
You tell me that it's a shame
Time moved past us in such a permanent way
And there was something
In the way that we used to disagree
It felt so good
I'm out of air now and I don't feel a thing
I don't feel a thing
Stars in retreat
Plots never ending now with
Nothing in between
Can someone change the batteries again, again, 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.

everything is alive

Shoegaze royalty. Often aped, but never beaten, this might be their strongest release yet. Mesmerising.

Meandering guitars, laid-back vocals, and catchy choruses make this the perfect end of summer album.
