lyrics

In haunted homes
Our minds overflowed
With Nintendo codes
The faint whiff of new pheromones

The world still unknown
Still throwing a soft glow
We were small, weak and prone
To being blown away by cyclones

And now that we're grown
Heads hung low under car loans
Our bones they moan
As we reach for the phone

It's not our fault the world's corroded and slowed
But we won't bitch and moan about what we think we're owed

We're older than we should be
It's colder than it could be
My shoulder can hold both you and me

We grew
Into our shadows
We knew
What the future held
The truth
Was pretty simple
We accrued lots of secrets but we had nothing knew to tell

We've overflowed with haunted homes
Nintendo codes and pheromones
A sudden glow, a world unknown
Pay no mind to groaning bones
I've heard and seen a lot of things
Cast-off rings and summer flings
Screaming queens stuck in-between
Bitter kings and broken dreams
The soothing purr of soft machines
The rushing blur of springtime streams
The way your eyes shined and beamed
The last time that we got clean

The soothing purr of soft machines
The rushing blur of springtime streams
The way your eyes shined and beamed
The last time that we got clean
The last time that we got clean

We grew into our shadows, knew what the future held
We accrued a lot of secrets, but nothing new to tell

I accrued a lot of secrets, but nothing new to tell
Except the way your eyes shined and beamed
The last time that we got clean

about

Tyler Taylor Boulder, Colorado

Hi, I'm Tyler. You may know me from my band, The Amends. I'm pretty sure you must if you've found your way here. I made this site so that I could have a place to quietly share my older songs (ones I mostly wrote before founding The Amends with Drew) with anyone who's interested. I recorded and played these myself, so forgive the varying sound quality. All songs are technically free. ... more
