lyrics

You’ve come to a conclusion that I made months ago
When I saw you calling I guess I should have known
If I was only living for a day or so
I’d spend the whole night crying on the bathroom floor
If I could be the man that I have seen in dreams
Would it make a difference would that change anything?

Didn’t make sense when I was younger, but now it's all so clear to me
You’ll only give me wilted flowers and things you didn’t say or mean

Just make my heart your final folly (I know you won’t)
And I promise I won’t ask for nothing (just don’t say no)
Oh no they’ve gone and left me naked (I’ve been exposed)
They’ve gone to the moon again (they’ll see my flaws)
Pale blue dot can feel my shaking (these hand-shaped claws)
Fragile skin won’t keep this heat in

It’s only while alone that I can hear his voice
Proposing referendums like I had a choice
I guess that I could be the change I want to see
But idealistic outcomes are only found in dreams
You might just be the girl to see me old and grey
But what’s the point in living just to fade away?

I tried for once but I surrender my final ounce of dignity
Avert my gaze from love forsaken, then pay your debts and wash your feet

Just make my heart your final folly (I know you won’t)
And I promise I won’t ask for nothing (just don’t say no)
Oh no they’ve gone and left me naked (I’ve been exposed)
They’ve gone to the moon again (they’ll see my flaws)
Pale blue dot can feel my shaking (these hand-shaped claws)
Fragile skin won’t keep this heat in

about

Animal Boy Guelph, Ontario

We’re a band from Guelph, Ontario.

We’re four anxious twenty-somethings who write extremely honest songs that you can dance to.

Sometimes those songs sound like indie/surf and punk.

We’re in a city that is very, very far from the ocean.

We’re doing it anyway.
