about

Sometimes it's best to stay in your house, behind locked doors.

lyrics

They said to stay
inside of our homes
Lock all our doors
Cower and hide
I didn’t listen to anyone else
And took a walk
On a beautiful night

Out on the streets
It was Halloween
Thought I was alone
Nobody was seen
I started to think
It was all a bad dream
But then I looked down
And saw blood on the leaves

Can you smell the Fires on Jefferson avenue
So much screaming
Gunfire symphonies all around
Suspended in time
Surrounded by death
Awake and aggressively gnawing through
Everything I ever knew
Start as fools and end as ghouls

Decided right then
That I’d seen enough
Turned back to go home
But in my alarm
I didn’thear the thing shambling up
But felt it’s teeth
Sinking into my arm

Can you smell the fires on Jefferson Avenue
So much screaming
Gunfire symphonies all around
Suspended in time
Surrounded by death
Awake and aggressively gnawing through
Everything I ever knew
Start as fools and end as ghouls

Oh god I’m bleeding
I can feel it feeding
But not breathing
I have been bitten
Now I guess my story
Is rewritten

But all the pain has disappeared
I face the end but without fear
I feel the change already here
i’m going to come back

A blend of sixties and seventies rock refracted through a prism of modern influences (grunge, LA psych scene, doom) to create a fuzzy, lo fi, psychedelic trip. ... more
