Territorial by nature
I held off just to see the danger
Cut cloth serves a different story
I hold onto everything
I know it walks beside me
And most days it holds so tightly
Is love an awful feeling?
You know I’d fight for anything
I’m gone
if not for the territory
I’ve changed my mind
(Freddy Ruppert vocal)
What if I said these dreams still haunt me?
In your empty bed you still find me
Speak everything and make it binding
I’m begging you to hold onto everything
Dig a grave and lay me in it
Take my heart you’ve set fire to it
Tell me all of the lies that won me
It’s not love unless it buries me

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
