Description
Dark psych-pop bathed in seperation anxiety but with a twist. Think Chris Isaak meets Joe Walsh... they get drunk.
Lyrics
R I threw you away And I knew it was wrong I made you fall down... I was unconscious so long Now I long to watch and wait And breathe the air that leaves Your lips my dear I know that someday I'll find what I'm searching for Though I can't describe The taste you left in my mouth So bittersweet it hurts my teeth The pain so clear won't disappear Like the sight of a scar In the shape of an R that you wear On your ankle forever I made a mistake and I'll Never do it again How long will it take For my soul to resend Just because I say I'm sorry doesn't Mean you should forgive me now I know that someday I'll find what I'm searching for Though I can't describe The ways that you linger on Inside my mind so I cast myself Away from the fear That won't disappear Like the sight of a scar In the shape of an R that you wear On your ankle forever Heed her silence boys She'll teach you a lesson But you'll have to pay attention Shall I say to myself That there's nobody else In the world that will understand This more than you But someday you'll find What you're searching for Though I can't describe the taste You left in my mouth So bittersweet it hurts my teeth The pain so clear won't disappear Like the sight of a scar In the shape of an R That you wear on your ankle forever That you wear on your ankle forever Written by Monte Peck © 2009 Equalellow Songs (ASCAP)
