take a bite if you want
better than weight of carried will
will we hurt less bad as we grow?
it always seems to callous skin…
then love crushed in and struck me
i’ve fallen this far before
i don’t know, can desire burn clear?
because i don’t want to know
dressed in indifference
burning from a tear
i don’t know what i’m wearing
i don’t know who i am
each time i try to draw the lines, they smear
some parts of myself comes undone
a messy smudge, a jagged shrill
it’s pictured crystal clear the more i know
once recalled in abstract, in a dream
then blood crushed in and left me
i’ve fallen this hard before
i don’t know…can desire burn clear?
because i don’t want to know
my accidental sexism
results from my fears
an act of self preservation
wounded from the years
The soaring arcs of post-rock, the punchy rhythms of post-hardcore, and the jagged lines of post-punk all join on the latest from Aversions. Bandcamp New & Notable May 2, 2023
Terrific, marauding post-punk that will thrill fans of Idles with its pairing of cutting riffs and wry spoken/sung lyrics. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 26, 2022
