Everyone I ever loved I threw them into the sea
When I wronged you
Every song I ever sang to grant me back your heart
When I wronged you
A lifetime of lovers I stayed undercover, hiding myself from you
Can you hear me knocking on your door?
So many nights alone, left wanting more
Can you see me standing in the dark?
So many nights alone, left wanting more
Everything I ever loved fell apart at the seams
When I wronged you
So can I get this demon off my back and break me free of all these memories
Kinda hard to do so when it’s staring right in front me
On the record covers and on all of our backdrops
It’s like I’m borrowing time until my heart stops.
Then would you notice me
Can you hear me knocking on your door?
So many nights alone, left wanting more
Can you see me standing in the dark?
So many nights alone, left wanting more
I know it’ not my fault
It’s not who I am
I promise
I swear it got the best of me

The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
TV Priest's second record springs forth with a tension, dynamism, and crunch not often found in this brand of broody, shouty post-punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 16, 2022
