It's quiet
Now we're all here
I look down and stammer on
As I make this clear
"I fall in love with you like you fall asleep, slowly [at first], then all at once" (Green, J. 2012 p125)
'Cause we can talk online for hours at a time
Downloading each other's songs
But how could I know?
Breath catch in my throat
There's someone after me
But how could you know?
Regurgitating time over
As your life leaves
But I don't know
How to feel now I'm alone
You stare down
At your shoes instead
I'd like to talk
But there's no knowing where it could head
It's like you're half of mine
With an infinite divide
Between yourself and the other guys
I'm sick inside
Cause you're always on my mind
Filled with imaginary sex
But how could I know?
Breath catch in my throat
There's someone after me
But how could you know?
Regurgitating time over
As your life leaves
But I don't know
How to feel now I'm alone
Because it never is
It never was anyone at all
How to feel now I'm alone

Lyrics by Ed Wetenhall
Certainly a controversial direction for the band, but this album ultimately rests as my favorite from TTNG. The technical mastery of their previous albums is still present here along with some very thought provoking and philosophical lyrics. I may not always agree with the lyrical messaging, but this is an album which rewards careful listening. Syobnaf
Extremely friendly people, even better music! Was a pleasure to meet them at my local store, where they introduced me to their music. So glad I followed up on it! arezoth
Fronted by Grammy-nominated studio engineer Antonia Gauci, this upstart Australian trio balances radiant pop with foreboding alt-rock. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 24, 2024
