Was it honey on your lips?
Wish you'd take my by the wrist
I'd wear your kiss
Wasn't much like this before
Want your dress fall to the floor
I'm sure
Don't isolate yourself
I hear your every doubt
And now your love can shine
And now your love is mine

There comes a season
When you reconcile the cost
Can't stand believing
That everything is lost
I know the reasons
You fix yourself to an albatross
Descending freely
Spin off, ditch the dross
Faith healer heal my pain
'Cause there's not an inch of proof
That I'm gonna be okay
Without a sign from you
Take care to see me
Whenever you cross the wall
Lay here beside me
Take on, take on 'til it's gone
I know the feeling
That you'd much rather gloss
When you send me reelin'
Criss-cross the Rubicon

Sold a lie
A smiling son
Left chewing on the rind
Thrown aside
The life alight
A shield for the real
A portrait by
A person you admire
Torn up
In the wind
Citrus underneath
Your skin again
Tangerine

Met online
Connected like WiFi
Chasing oblivion
Carry your heart in mine
It's a summer job
Mending a cathedral wall
The light is dark inside
It won't hold you at all
It's just like a sitcom
Running out of episodes
Flowers in the window
Grow so cold
And I just want
To see you everywhere
Meet me by the water
Where they won't dare
Neglect your wings
In a hurricane
Thought it was going up
Not circling the drain

She moves like the sun
Oh, she soothes like the sea
She comes down on Sunday morning
This restless feeling
Spins me round, spins me round
Ahhh
She came on strong
But she went away
She was a fire with no flame
Shivering in her burning shade
Close behind, so close behind
Ahhh

Stumbling Blocks
by Exploding Flowers
L.A. band Exploding Flowers hearken back to the jangly melodicism of the Paisley Underground on their first full-length in nine years.
go to album
South Philly band Grocer has all the sly disaffection of classic ’90s indie rock in their wonderfully unruly songs.
