about
Inspired by the injustices faced by marginalised artists in the music industry, the band draws upon 2000’s emo rock influences to create an anthem of empowerment and perseverance.
lyrics
VERSE 1
Did you think I hadn’t heard
How you’re twisting all my words, that won’t hurt
Are you watching from the wings?
Did you hate the way I sing? That won’t hurt
PRE CHORUS
Get a little closer, speak a little slower
Can you really tell me, that you think it’s easy
Can you keep a secret, want to us believe it
Make a promise, keep it, god knows that we need it
CHORUS
Oh well better luck next time, I’ll tell you that it’s all fine
But if I’m honest - Oh, I want more
Oh well better luck next time, I’ve heard that my whole life
Can I be honest? Oh, I want more
VERSE 2
All the people at the door don’t know your name anymore
Are you scared?
Running out of things to steal, was anything you said real?
Are you scared?
PRECHORUS
Get a little closer, speak a little slower
Can you really tell me, that you think it’s easy
[CHORUS]
BRIDGE
I want something more, I want so much more
If failure’s what you really fear, imagine how it feels to hear
[CHORUS]
All of my life, said it’s fine
Oh I want more
So much more

This New Zealand group have a sweet glaze and an underlying toothiness that would have fit right in on mid-’90s alt-rock radio. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 1, 2019
