lyrics

Got a memory to amputate
Digging for the novocaine
Looking for some relief
Doctor of ontology
Took some wanting out of me
Like he was pulling teeth

I don’t know why
I keep losing time
The sun was high until I blinked
Look up, it’s later than you think

Got a finger to my wrist again
Thrumming underneath the skin
Is singing be here now
Can you point me to a simple thing
Loosen up my suffering
Because I don’t know how

I don’t know why
I keep losing time
The sun was high until I blinked
Look up, it’s later than you think

Flattening the parallax
Numbing out behind the glass
Waiting til the feelings pass

Way down in the mirror screen
Nothing got ahold of me
Turned me inside out
Finally resurfacing
I mostly don’t know where I’ve been
Or what I thought about

I don’t know why
I keep losing time
The sun was high until I blinked
Look up, it’s later than you think

The songs are deceptively serene, layering Youngs’ infectious pop sensibilities atop lush, dreamy arrangements that often belie the swift emotional currents lurking underneath. ... more
