lyrics

We were walking down the street
That's when you said to me
"Honey don't you close your eyes at night
For I feel something's coming for me."

Well I thought you were crazy
But I'm not laughing now 'cause the joke's on me
And now here I am on this road
And now I'm walking alone

Chorus:
Oh you said you'd never leave
Oh you said you'd never leave me
But I know you didn't go easy
Oh I know you didn't go easy
'Cause you love me

Well you fought it like a tiger
But those stripes started fading out
And once you started losing all your colors
It wore you down

But you were quite the fighter
I'll admit I thought you'd make it
And I'll never come to accept this
'Cause I never said everything I meant

Chorus

Sometimes I wonder what you'd say to me
About all these choices I've been making
'Cause they're stealing all my sleep

And I'm convinced if only
If only you were here
Everything would be so much easier
But I know you had to leave

Chorus

Now I'm walking down that street
Pretending you're with me
And I never close my eyes at night
No, I never close my eyes

No, I never close my eyes
No, I never
No, I never close my eyes
No I, No I never
I never close my eyes
At night

Where EP
by Sophie Jamieson

supported by 5 fans who also own “Fighter”

Folky and sparse on the face of it, but there's a richness and emotional gravitas to this EP. I've spent some time trying to figure out how that was done but it's still magic to me, really. mcharper

His Young Heart EP
by Daughter

supported by 4 fans who also own “Fighter”

This is the first album I found that really spoke to me as a young fem. From the simplicity, the bass drum, specifically in landfill is so steady and soothing. I love landfill because it perfectly portrays trauma bonds, sexual or romantic relationships rooted in power imbalance. Being led on, unrequited love, constantly being clueless if someone is a real friend, or a lover. Are they yours or are they ruthlessly rogue. Untameable. Love and hate are such similar feelings, and they often mingle. clementinehatepageichangedmymind
