lyrics
I like to sing when I'm bored.
It helps me to escape problems and reason.
So when I think about leaving,
I won't be bound by this place
or restricted to the skies of everyone else.
Ambition, I've seen it.
My feelings, don't need them.
Grow on, I need this.
Go on.
I hate to feel that I'm poor.
The contraband's too much to take.
Honors in treason.
So when I think about fleeing,
I can't be found in this place.
I'm exiled by the worlds of everyone's doubt.
Ambition, I've seen it.
My feelings, don't need them.
Grow on, I need this.
Go on.
When I feel I'm on the floor,
it gets way too hard to take.
And now I'm crawling at the door
my hands are reaching for.
My knees are burnt with the want for more.
Ambition, I've seen it.
My feelings, don't need them.
Grow on, I need this.
Go on.
Dead Cross, Retox, and Qui members dish out subversive hardcore with an indignant smirk; come for the riffs, stay for the synth experiments. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 31, 2024
UK82-inspired hardcore punk from Christchurch, New Zealand, gruff and fast and economical and, of course, righteously pissed. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 16, 2020
On their debut record, the London hardcore upstarts cross-up mosh-ready fare with melancholic ambient passages, weeping guitars, and virtuosic vocal harmonies, but its romantic veneer is much more complicated than it seems. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 30, 2019
From the first deadened cowbell to the last dissonant guitar interval, Dutch quartet Geo's new record is shaped for impact. Bandcamp Album of the Day Apr 25, 2024
