Searching for clarity in murky waters
Rippled reflections as I falter
I can’t remember what to call him
If you have doubts, destroy them
Garden snake
Writhing in my lungs
Read my lips
Speaking in tongues
Can’t tell if these conversations
Are helping or hurting
All my friends are trying
To translate
It’s universal
Just like the lies we all tell ourselves
In the mirror
Every morning
To feel worse
Papercut heart
Taken apart like broken watches
Turned to scars
Nowhere to start
I’m staying grounded
And I’m centered
On my mark
Garden snake
Writhing in my lungs
Read my lips
Speaking in tongues

The Atlanta trio find an appealing balance between their trademark razor sharp wiry riffage and freewheeling groove. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 9, 2024
Tightly wound post-punk with splashes of new wave; heavy on twangy riffs, phased-out melodies, and understated vocals. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 2, 2023
