lyrics
The corners of my smile,
Are taped to my cheek,
Eight to four,
I won’t let you see.
The coffee is wearing,
Me down,
And I’m tired,
Everyday.
I don’t want to serve you,
But I’ve got bills,
And wasted time.
I stare in the reflection,
Of the machine,
And I can’t help but notice,
It doesn’t look like me.
How do I do it,
All at one time?
Proving my own courage,
While serving the same line.
I don’t want to serve you,
But I’ve got bills and a lofty view,
Waiting for the open sign,
To flicker off,
Like my wasted time,
My wasted time...
No one really knows this,
I’ve lost a lot of focus,
Dealing with these strangers,
Who look at us like servants.
From start to finish, this record is truly exquisite. With each listen, you discover a new nuance. Alexandria's songwriting and musicianship are at their finest. Kirsten Ludwig
A blend of rainbow-hued psychedelic synth-pop with glitchy, experimental interludes from Liverpool-based Tom McConnell. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 6, 2024
Bright, gorgeous, bashing songs from these Belgian shoegazers that never lose track of melody amidst the waves of distortion. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 23, 2023
