lyrics
Spend too much time looking after a rat,
why don’t you care for something that could love you back?
Cue the lights, kill the mood.
You flow like a river; sticking to the easiest route.
But it’s not art when you shove it down someone’s throat.
I should have known you’d bail out to keep yourself afloat
and I wouldn’t last a minute with you alone.
Kill the lights, clear the room.
You flow like a river; sticking to the easiest route.
But you can’t be seriously considering this,
considering everything.
You went behind our backs while under our noses.
Do you feel good enough to sleep?
I wouldn’t last a minute with you alone.
Give your new friends diamonds, let your old friends down,
and still feel good enough to sleep.
I wouldn’t last a minute with you alone.
why don’t you care for something that could love you back?
Cue the lights, kill the mood.
You flow like a river; sticking to the easiest route.
But it’s not art when you shove it down someone’s throat.
I should have known you’d bail out to keep yourself afloat
and I wouldn’t last a minute with you alone.
Kill the lights, clear the room.
You flow like a river; sticking to the easiest route.
But you can’t be seriously considering this,
considering everything.
You went behind our backs while under our noses.
Do you feel good enough to sleep?
I wouldn’t last a minute with you alone.
Give your new friends diamonds, let your old friends down,
and still feel good enough to sleep.
I wouldn’t last a minute with you alone.

Close friends navigating the distance and complexity of growth. With two releases under their belt since forming in 2012, Big Lonely has another full-length album up their sleeve. Draw the curtains, “Bad Magic”. ... more
