One of the standout tracks from the London-based Canadian indie artist’s recent EP, Stains, this number has an angry but catchy half-spoken naive freshness, and concerns frustrations over a difficult queer relationship. Out on Zelig Records. To enjoy more of their work, see the embedded Bandcamp link of the EP below, as well as the Spotify link.
I have to accept
You're gonna breathe down my neck
Forever until I'm dead
Forever ever ever ever
I’m watching our sex
On the screen in my bed
Didn't skip ahead
Just let it
Funny now
I'm deep throating the barrel of a different gun
How come it hurts so much when you become your mother?
She's concussed cause’ reality bites
I'm never enough
And i still can’t find out why
You took two steps forward
I took two steps back
I hesitated
And you attacked
Ever so gently
Ruined everything
That we knew
OKAY
I dropped acid on my own
Climbed up the river on all fours
Laughing maniacally HA HA
No no I’m not going crazy
This is how things should have been
My own best friend without wasting
Precious life force crying
Over someone who liked lying, lying
Funny now
This new world wide
That I sought to find
Feels more yours than mine
For someone so shy
You don't seem to mind
Having it all
Without wondering why
UMM
You took two steps forward
I took two steps back
I hesitated
And you attacked
Ever so gently
Ruined everything
That we knew
I came across a magical pool
The colours like a Wong Kar-wai movie
Above loomed two trees entwined by vines
Side by side
Everything beautiful
Reminds me of you
Hence my rage, my pain remains
I can’t see through
How long till I move on?
I have to accept
The temporal nature of the way we all connect
It’s never ever ever gonna be the same again
Just keep charging ahead
At least you got heaven to anticipate in the end!
You took two steps forward
I took two steps back
I hesitated
And you attacked
Ever so gently
Ruined everything
You took two steps forward
I took two steps back
I hesitated
And you attacked
Ever so gently
Ruined everything
That we knew
