Feat. Vacuum 04:05
I’m tired of waiting in line Waiting for a sound or time Like a needle waiting in the hay But now I’ve found a place to stay Away From me I’m begging at your feet ‘Cuz these cuts they won’t heal Well I’m willing to lay down the line Just so you can have the time To tell the ones you love that you realize They can’t do enough, no more acting tough Even if it won’t get through I swear we’ll be there for you For you I want you to draw a line Between good and feelin’ fine So I know where to go when you’re feelin’ low ‘Cuz I don’t care about your lonely stare When you’re blaming me for another fantasy Don’t put your fucking hands on Well I’m willing to lay down the line Just so you can have the time To tell the ones you love that you realize They can’t do enough, no more acting tough Even if it won’t get through I swear we’ll be there for you

In light of you I think it’s better not to be tomorrow In plenty waits another teething bored and sorrow Fear will lay another latex broken salty minded When in hospital beds, we wait for you, we wait for you to save us When will she learn how can he fake Pretend saving her was not mistake How does the surgeon feel in early morning When in hospital beds, we wait for you, we wait for you to save us The father that you once knew is further than you’ll ever know and even if you wanted to it’s completely up to where you go x2 But you can’t fly (repeat until end)

Wanted to be Everything you said you’d be But now you’re home and all alone When we asked, we hoped, it wasn’t true You showed us what it means to be as blue as you But you don’t need a thing except your diamond heart and ring To cut away the stone, nothing to hear but the lonely tone of a broken television of a broken television So relax It’s just a tax On the places that you’ll be In our prison you’ll be free But you don’t With a bottle on your brain Good and bad are all the same See an error in your stare Why alone is only fair x5

To the casket quickly for the young folks Where the old ones teach us how to die While it might be sad when they finally leave At least you get to say goodbye, goodbye Well six minutes at a time we’re barely here and your eyes are reflecting the lonely fear of a moment about to end just pretend I’m not Gone To the concert quickly for the young folks Where the old ones teach us how to fly While it might be fun for a little while We won’t remember when we say goodbye, goodbye Sing a happy song, with lonely words Stuck to the ground with the broken birds You’re feelin’ around without a stick and then You’re wondering why you feel so sick again Look up, and stare at the sun You shed a tear because the shine is almost done About to end Just pretend It’s not

Technically we still came out ahead Somewhere between here and my aching fucking head Full in color but empty inside, we appear absolute but misaligned Speak to me my starving soul, crave my hands and watch them throw you for a loop and off the edge With a broken voice on a telephone You look for a place to call alone I am here, I am near and I won’t say no In a familiar drug sick state of grace Where a beautiful song is a beautiful place Supposedly we still came out ahead Somewhere between here and what wasn’t said Full in color but empty inside, we appear absolute but misaligned Speak to me my starving soul, crave my hands and watch them throw you for a loop and off the edge With a broken voice on a telephone You look for a place to call alone I am here, I am near and I won’t say no Getting lost is not a waste of time If you find a space and pace of mind Getting lost is not a waste of time If you find a space and pace of mind Try so hard to moments waste Just to feel a colors taste Speak to me Speak to me Speak to me

Nigel & The Dropout Detroit, Michigan

The Detroit based two piece looped themselves into a spacious soundscape filled with soaring guitars clashing with heavily chopped samples, hard hitting percussion, ambient synth and layered vocal harmonies.

A nightmare of tangled cables and dazzling lights illuminate a performance void of the inhuman laptop automation and sequencing seen far too often today.

Everything you see and hear - we do.
