about

"Quentin's View", taken from Above Us The Waves debut album "Anchors Aweigh", out via Spreading Dysphoria Industries

lyrics

We came blazing with these guns
with shiny eyes and dressed in style
we asked for hell in this town
we begged the crowd but helped them out this way
they could have care less
but our thirst was hard to quince
so we tend to forget the rules (we always forget the rules)
the play’s not over in the first act, no

so save me some strength
for these words break my stride
and the things that kept me alive once
are sinking with everyone else

these thoughts…scratch, fight and bite away from them
for the last time I will drive my demons home

I renounce all your offering, gambler of lost souls
the Tempter, oh spirit, we’re in too deep to withdraw

end paralyzed by a chance to feel alive
for the last time I will drive my demons home

to move on is to forgive
to endure is to forget
try your worse till it looks fit
try your worse it seems like…

…we are in peace still looking for trouble
these pills won’t ease this pain veteran
you ask for confessions end up with obsessions
if you can’t stay still you better run
there’s a war in every corner and this girl’s high heels are a battlefield
we always forget the rules
we always forget the rules

You cannot deny the thrill of a lifetime
it’s always the same. The ending’s the same but always rewinding

to move on is to forgive
to endure is to forget
