lyrics

I was assembling the summer table
I was hot, I was cold
And back in town
You were disappointed in me
‘Cause of volatile dust
‘Cause of the wrong ways I think I’m better
Better than other men

I’ll show my teeth
I’ll show my muscles
I’ll show I care
But not too much
I never care too much

I was driving home
Leaving Montreal behind
I was pissed, being childish
And back in town
You were disappointed in me
Well people, they drive too slow
Well people, they drive too fast
I’m much better obviously

I’ll show my teeth
I’ll throw my fits
I’ll show how manly I am
It’s always enough
It’s always worth it

I was feeling the wind in my hair
I will die here
Peaceful, at rest
Death in the city is not for me
It’s loud, it’s busy
It’s fast, it’s lonely

I will become wind
I will become birdsong
I will show off all I am
Beautiful, delicate destroyer

The songs show a poignant songwriting that can be related to Bon Iver’s latest album’s approach or The Microphones’ lo-fi sound. We can find a pop artist with great sensibility and an undeniable talent for texture and original arrangements. ... more
