Official audio for ‘Brood Over You’ by Fake Eyes from their 2024 LP, "Saccharine Scream". Listen everywhere + pre-order merch: http://dthw.sh/saccharinescream
Lyrics:
Wallow in wasted youth
and the potential to embrace it.
Swallow this peacetime farce.
Don’t take to heart the things you couldn’t carry there.
She’ll sell you air when you feel like you’ve been suffocating.
But it’s better to know what’s true.
Small worlds make you feel small.
Stand upright,
You’re so tall.
Cuz she’ll fall without you there
and crash back down.
You never want to hang around when I’m in town, but this feels like something you should know:
it’s better to know what’s true.
Rolling over,
ever-closer
On the way down
On the way down
Holding in
and on
and sober
On the way down
On the way down
Remember how we jumped right out of that lazy car we pushed too hard?
Well now is now, and it’s better to know what’s true.
You’d kiss the ground,
it’s sweeter now in this life you chose that you can’t escape now.
It’s better to know what’s true.
