One pair, the better kind of man
When you stoke the coal to a white flame
What better defender than the fighter in the light
Hold steady and cut out every part of you that will die
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you (I can take control again)
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you (I can take control again)
This is a sickness,
I wanna tell the truth
This is a sickness,
I wanna tell you
Unsealed the bottle bleeds in me
And I only wanted to dream you more
But here’s how your cripple keeps the peace I lean and the crutch holds down the floor
You’ll never be taken by the hands who hold the door
One body, one mind, and one starving lonely soul
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you (I can take control again)
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you
Not gonna lie, gonna lie, I’m gonna hurt you (I can take control again)
This is a sickness,
I wanna tell the truth
This is a sickness,
I wanna tell you
This is a sickness,
I wanna tell the truth
This is a sickness,
I wanna tell you

Hell ya to And And And's songwriting, drummer Bim Ditson's post-punk mania and Berg Radin's swarm-of-bees guitar lines… there are few bands in PDX that get me this emotional involved. ♡ this band. Sama Dams
Andy played sax over Dirty Work and killed it over two other tracks that we've got in the vault. This release shows the depth of his great talents, and the shape of his unique musical mind. Aw yeah. Sama Dams
The songs on Kelly Reed’s latest are slyly self-deprecating, set to a backdrop of measured keys and guitar for maximum stateliness. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 16, 2023
The Australian instrumental band juxtapose classical pianos and ambient swells with uncompromising, proggy post-metal. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 9, 2023
