Dirty Clocks 04:23
I’ve come to hate birthdays And appreciate loss Tell me how your days been I seem to have missed it I slept too long Do you have any good reads? Could you send them my way? I’ve been running out of original ways To spend my day But just because I closed my eyes once Doesn’t mean I’m blind Discomforting condolences bring my mind up to speed But I’ve been trying not to think fast thoughts It’s been easy with dirty clocks My hands can’t help but move slow I’m tired of holding burning ropes But I’m too tired to let them go Just because I closed my eyes once Doesn’t mean I’m blind Do you still wear my t-shirt underneath his old sweater? Is there something else behind your heart? Minding your tongue when you know that you’re wrong At least you have the decency to stay far I know what I won’t ask of my new friend And I will only speak in half-truths Time hides more than it heals Mend the glass on your watch, if you want time to heal Time is hiding everything Don’t worry, don’t wait I’ll run into you again But just because I closed my eyes once Doesn’t mean I’m blind

about

The first single off of our full length album, "Close Your Eyes, Keep Talking" - To be released on December 5th, 2014.

I’ve come to hate birthdays
And appreciate loss
Tell me how your days been
I seem to have missed it I slept too long

Do you have any good reads?
Could you send them my way?
I’ve been running out of original ways
To spend my day

But just because I closed my eyes once
Doesn’t mean I’m blind

Discomforting condolences bring my mind up to speed
But I’ve been trying not to think fast thoughts
It’s been easy with dirty clocks
My hands can’t help but move slow

I’m tired of holding burning ropes
But I’m too tired to let them go

Just because I closed my eyes once
Doesn’t mean I’m blind

Do you still wear my t-shirt underneath his old sweater?
Is there something else behind your heart?
Minding your tongue when you know that you’re wrong
At least you have the decency to stay far

I know what I won’t ask of my new friend
And I will only speak in half-truths
Time hides more than it heals
Mend the glass on your watch, if you want time to heal
Time is hiding everything

Don’t worry, don’t wait
I’ll run into you again
But just because I closed my eyes once
Doesn’t mean I’m blind
