lyrics

The tea has gone cold and the water's gone warm
The trail has gone cold
Put your feet on the floor
Let me suck your static mood
The trail has gone cold
Isn't that exactly what I said would happen?

(I'm sorry I keep having ideas while you're trying to sleep)

I shouldn't have called
I know what I said was unfair
Now the trail has gone cold
I told you I cope like a rocket falling to Earth
The atmosphere is so cold
Isn't that exactly what I said would happen?

You know, I don’t believe in love at first sight
But I do believe in having good aim
So I line eggs and frogs up on the walls and kiss them until my lips bleed
I’m sorry you’re trying to sleep
While I’m busy dreaming stories of forbidden love between Medusa and Sysyphus
And Sisyphus!
Sisyphus had it easy, didn’t he?
I mean, he just had to move that ONE fucking rock, right?
And I’ve tried,
And I’ve failed,
And I’ve tried and I’ve failed and I’ve tried and I’ve failed and I’ve tried and I’ve failed
And I just can’t take the distance anymore
I’m sorry the last words I said to you were “fuck you”
And I meant it
And I still mean it.

Here is every song that I will sing to you
And here is every letter I will write
There's something to be said for all the candles 'round your bed
But you still want to be alone tonight

I’m sorry I keep having ideas
But imagine, if you will
All of the futility of the world pouring into a hole
And the hole
Is a woman
I’m sorry I woke you up last night screaming
But I couldn’t find my way back
To the dark and emptying fields
So I cloaked myself and ran into the woods searching for a wolf
I could shower with compliments in hopes he’d be kind enough to devour me
The tea has gone cold and I’m wondering why
I still can’t see the whites of your eyes
I know
In order to give up on love
I’d have to give up on it’s counterpart
And hate
Is a love I’m not willing to let go
So I hate you
But I love you
And I hate you but I love you but I hate you but I love you but I hate you
And I’m not willing to apologize because I warned you
This is just the way I am.

Here is every song that I will sing to you
And here is every letter I will write
There's something to be said for all the candles 'round your bed
But you still want to be alone tonight

The tea has gone cold and the water's gone warm
The house is so cold
Put your feet on the floor
Can't you feel my static too?
The trail has gone cold
Isn't that exactly what I said would happen?

And if this is the last thing that I say to you
If you choose this very day to leave
I will find you
I will transcend
I will swim the river Styx and I will hold your head under

Here is every song that I will sing to you
And here is every letter I will write
There's something to be said for all the candles 'round your bed
But you still want to be alone tonight

Here is every song that I will sing to you (The tea has gone cold)
And here is every letter I will write (The water's gone warm)
There's something to be said for all the candles 'round your bed
But you still want to be alone tonight (The trail has gone cold)

about

Sapling Massachusetts

"Most bands that fall into the noise punk category are either pure noise and aggression or electronic near dance music. Sapling exist in both worlds, being both punk and groovy dance music. Plus, their songs feel both silly and completely serious at the same time, which is never a bad thing."
~If It's Too Loud
