You said you wanted a song for your mother in bed
Who can't get better through a letter, consider the talk
That door was closing you were busy posing for friends
Who knew no better than the letter on the square of your chest
I'm so tired of you
I could be lazy but I know you're spinning a web
Of sad distortion while in motion taking me to the floor
That's the beginning and I know the ending where love
Is not the answer to the cancer that is killing your mind
It's so tired and old
That's what you get for losing control
You get away from me
Don't take life from me
I've seen your mind
Your so tired and old
That's what you get for losing control
You said I needed a brief intermission
And I just kept on reading in the evening while your mind was asleep
That started motion, I could not have spoken the words
That I was thinking, I was thinking about making you cry
I'm so mad at my mind
That's what you get for losing control
You get away from me
Don't take life from me
I've seen your mind
Your so tired and old
That's what you get for losing control
That's what we get for losing control

I love this album (and the EP's that proceed it). Before I picked this up I had never really listened to "Christmas" music outside of December, nor did I see much value in it. Colby Miller
Stirring alt-pop with a focus on heartrending vocal melodies, the new LP from Nicholas is riveting from start to finish. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 10, 2023
