yeah you’ve been waking up exhausted between
the callous tongues that have been
keeping you clean
the way you crave a touch is almost obscene
you are lonely you are lonely
the people that you’re calling
your friends
incredulous you watch as they bend
up to the void
as it is dragging them in
they are lonely they are lonely haha
you are lonely you are lonely
broken hearts broken lives
broken promises
broken dreams broken schemes
broken on the stairs alone
and i am no exception you’ll find
down in the gutter where
i feel most refined
i’m building monuments to help me remind:
i am lonely i am lonely
but maybe you can follow me down
i’m willing now to be your ghost town
i’ll be a fable for your heart
as you drown
we are lonely we are lonely ha ha
we are lonely we are lonely
broken hearts broken lives
broken promises
broken dreams broken schemes
broken on the stairs alone
The excellent new LP from Seattle’s Fotoform pairs the moodiness of goth with drifting dream pop melodies, resulting in bewitching songs. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 18, 2021
