lyrics

Scan the pier with your eyes
Head inside and then see what you can find here
Later now, sun's gone down
You're on the hill, counting things that you hold dear

And without the intention of finding it all out
You say that you can’t and you stamp, and you scream, and you shout

So come on let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now
So come on, let's try to figure it out

There's just one height where no suit fits just right, and that's the height that you've been at
Your fresh new face
Was soon erased
By the kids on their bikes down in the flats

And one comes in wearing Ticonderoga jeans
And you've never seen that, so you point, and you stare, and you scream

So come on let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now
So come on, let's try to figure it out

And now you're gone again
You’ve tried to make the ends all meet
My friend, you'll never find the truth that is hidden on this beach
When the water hits, man you'll see something

So come on let's try to figure it out
We still got time without a doubt
I know you're able
Because you're stable now
So come on, let's try
Come on, let's all try
We're all supposed to try
And figure it out

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
