lyrics

my eyes are blurry from less than six hours of sleep and I tried to get early nights but they're not for me I will be forever tired, getting home in the dark, no tangles in wires, no runs in the park

it's such a long, long time to wait
it's such a long, long, long time

and I am destroyed, falling asleep after work (*originally after food, I sang the wrong lyric ha)
but I know I've got all these things I should try to do
I am empty batteries and the charger's broke
I am the wrong punchline to a terrible joke

repeat after me, it's not as bad as it seems
we're just talking about dreams
we could be better than that

oh we could be better than that

it's a long, long time
to wait for the summer
it's a long, long time
to wait to get home

In a more perfect world, this band would blaring out of every radio on Earth. The lyrics, the vocals, the just-outta-teens snark and earnestness... so much to love. paulimboden

Another great album - dean wareham, joanna gruesome, lonely tourist, dorotea, the chills, manhattan love suicides & spearmint are all highlights but the whole lot is pretty darn great really martin kiosk

by Letting Up Despite Great Faults

More raw (rawer?) than their newer stuff. Still quite grand and great. Like a raw pop with great riffs. thorseus
