i wake up today
another day’s gone
the corners are dulling
the grace of my fall
i look at the clock it’s half past one
i guess i’ll just sleep til’ it is done
i hope that i’ll feel like i have won
i’m fighting so hard but nothing gets done
and i know that i’ve never wanted to adjust
but the bedsheets feel rough
and i see the light
from around the gym
and it’s bending slightly
i open my eyes
another day’s worn
the colors are grey on
the lining is torn
and i don’t look away
when you walk out the door
always asking for
more
more
more
and i can see it there
the answers i long for
the colors i seek
the love i wronged for
but they turn from me
like a beautiful anchor
and
there was the sun
there was the sun
and i see the light
from inside my skin
and it’s
glowing brightly
The Besnard Lakes return with their first new LP in four years, full of the same mystery and wonder on which they have built their name. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 30, 2020
The Besnard Lakes are back with a new 12", and a new single. Expansive and psychedelic, much like the band's previous work. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 29, 2016
