lyrics
Lyrics:
Now that I know a lot more about you,
you surprise me with your sweetest behaviour
but also with so cold reactions
that I could intuit before
I was scared of feeling them in my own skin
I decided to put up with all.
I’m tired of being the concealing one
I’m tired of being the positive one
I’m tired of deception.
It’s you and your circumstances, all along the road
It’s me and my circumstances
I am exhausted, I’ve put so much on us
That now there’s nothing left inside me
You’ve taken everything
although you don’t want to make me sink.
Donne moi une chance
J’ai peur de l’evidence
On tombe ensemble
Avec nos circonstances
(bis)
It’s you and your circumstances
It’s me and my circumstances
and why can’t we find a middle point?
and why? Until we find this middle point
It’s me and…
You have some things you can’t hide
I am some things you don’t share
There are some things we can’t see yet
but are parts of us both
It’s you and me and our circumstances,
deep enough to accept them all
It’s us, now we’re fighting silence.
The experimental spirit permeating this collection of Japanese acid folk foreshadowed the arrivals of city pop, the psych revival, and folktronica. Bandcamp Album of the Day Jan 25, 2024
