There’s a way you like to complicate things
Prone to pain and over thinking
You can’t see the road for all the bumps
Looking for some cold ascension
A simple secret swift redemption
Drinking from a glass already drunk
Recidivist Determinist Plagiarist
Wondering if you even exist
Your mind is like a ferris wheel
An open wound that never heals
But on the outside you look well maintained
Somehow in this waning light
That seems like it could last all night
You realize there’s some folly in your ways
Recidivist Determinist Plagiarist
Wondering if you even exist
Despite all of your trepidation
Flip flopping and vacillation
Chattering and invocations
Finger pointing allegations
You feel like you’re in outer space
Floating like there’s roller skates
And every single move you make
Is another world that you create
Solipsist arsonist contortionist
Doubtful that they even exist
In Adrian Snood’s songs, soulful vocals and slow-moving alt-pop swirl together to create something distinctly moving. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 1, 2023
