Wonderfully sprightly acoustic new single by the band fronted by British artist Kate Staples. The finger-picked banjo and clever lyrical structure captures a growing feeling of panic and directionless blame. It is taken from the forthcoming album Off Off On, out on Rough Trade in October. More of This Is The Kit’s music can be enjoyed here.
Is it holding you down?
This great weight I miss, flattening
And it's breaking you up
All your frequencies shattered in
It's the same when you're falling asleep
And the same when it wakes you back up again
Higher pitched than you know how to hear
And you can't find the source where it's coming from
This is what you get
This is what you did
This is what they want
Why are you still here?
This is what they said
This is what you get
This is what you did
This is what they want
Why are you still here?
This is what they said
This is what you get
This is
Do you feel it
The same as you used to?
Is it digging you down
Does it pile up to bury you?
Better try to get out, get outside
And your limbs, they get out of your head again
And the soil you can taste in your mouth
But the water might wake you back up again
This is what you get
This is what you did
This is what they want
Why are you still here?
This is what they said
This is what you get
This is what you did
This is what they want
Why are you still here?
This is what they said
This is what you get
This is
Better try to get out, get outside
And your limbs, they get out of your head again
And the problem stays same as before
Comes around again, pretty repetitive
This is what you get
This is what you did
This is what they want
Why are you still here?
This is what they said
This is what you get
This is what you did
This is what they want
Why are you still here?
This is what they said
This is what you get
This is
