Bent Knee : You Know What They Mean
Las palabras
1. LANSING
[Sound Tech]
You're, you're plugged in
[Chris Baum]
Yeah, obviously
[Ben Levin]
It's just really loud, so it's feeding back
[Chris Baum]
Yeah, I need you to pull it down
Because every time I unmute from my end, I'm feeding back
[Sound Tech]
Well, you have to keep playing
[Jessica Kion]
I think it's too loud
[Ben Levin]
Here, just cover your ears, folks
Alright, guys
The truth is that we're all human
We've got our good nights and our bad nights
It takes a whole team to make this whole thing happen
And I'm glad we can work together
And I think it's gonna be an awesome set
While the computer's booting up
I just wanna say thank you for being here
And showing us so much love and support already
Really means a lot
[Gavin Wallace-Ailsworth]
Everything good?
[Jessica Kion]
Uh, yeah
[Ben Levin]
This is our little song that we play at the beginning
2. BONE RAGE
When she counted all the pieces, they didn't add up
Add up
Thimble breaks the abacus into thin strata
Strata
Oversharp cynical
Out of date ephemeral
If you got a bone to pick with time, we got a score to settle too
You let your fear cover your eyes
Oh, scrapbook portraits of all traitors saved for the redux
Redux
Squeeze out tears to sleep the kindness 'til it's bitter
Bone-dry hubris
Naimono Nedalrus
If you got a bone to pick with time, we got a score to settle too
You let your fear cover your eyes, we watch you turn into a fool
You let your fear cover your eyes
You let your fear cover your eyes
Your eyes
(Oh, fuck)
Your eyes
When she counted all the pieces, they didn't
3. GIVE US THE GOLD
Aim, aim it at the wall
Cover up your flaws
Cover, cower with me
Late, too late to call
Climb inside your faults
Point your finger with me
Hey, let me down
Let me scrounge around
In the filth of downtown
Oh, stay, I wanna bring you home and take
Little pieces of your stake
In what you live for
Point your finger
Cover, cower
Give us the gold
Get us to go
Give us the go
Give it, give, give-a, give-a, give-a, give-a, give-a, give-a
Give us the gold
Give us the go
Give us the gold
With a safe
Too safe to follow
Got a harness around my hand
It's only beating right now
Hate
I feel it dripping out my tongue
And heavy words got me undone
And I bleed forlorn
Oh, hey, let me down
Let me scrounge around
In the filth of downtown
Give us the gold
Get us to go
Give us the go
Give it, give, give-a, give-a, give-a, give-a, give-a, give-a
Give us the gold
Give us the go
Get us the gold
Nails breaking out the shell
Got twisty ties up in my hair like
Killed roadkill for myself
Ate fat and sickness for my life
I'm too thirsty, out of sauce
I'll dry up like a rainforest
In 2050, I'll be fine
Got diamond perfume on my mind
Give us the, give us the, give us the, give us the
Give us the, give us the, give us the, give us the
Give us the, give us the, give us the, give us the
Give us the, give us the, give us the, give us the
Give us the, give us the, give us the
Give us the, give us the, give us the, give us the
Give us the, give us the, give us the, give us the
Give us the, give us the, give us the, give us the
4. HOLD ME IN
I cannot miss
I cannot miss it
I cannot miss it all
Yeah, if nothing
If nothing happens
If nothing happens
I'll fall free and hold my breath
Hold it to say
Hold me in, I'm perfect that way
But hardly safe
Oh, what you say, boy, goddamn (Goddamn)
Goddamn (Goddamn)
Goddamn
Low ceiling
Delicate pieces
Insulation (One, two, three, four)
Feathering off
Hold my breath
I hold it to say
Oh, hold me in, I'm perfect that way
But hardly safe
What you say, boy, goddamn (Goddamn)
Goddamn (Goddamn)
Goddamn
Taken off track, I'm loving back
Swing between my ears, ah-ah
Shiny on fire with the wind whip
Whipping my tears back
Taken off track, I'm loving back
Swing between my ears, ah-ah
Shiny on fire with the wind whip
Whipping my hair back
Hold my breath
Hold it to say
Hold me in, I'm perfect that way
But hardly safe
What you say, boy
What you say, boy
Goddamn
Hold my breath
Hold it to say
Ah, hold me in, I'm perfect
I'm perfect
I'm perfect that way
5. EGG REPLACER
On my weight
Do the "k"
Ask me one
Chemed essay
Still no prey
Know to hey
Eye the way
Stay the same
Her, the ire, your wordsaw
Un-sad for I know you
Doughnut sec, the truce, the
Burden lay your way at the
Ox, go her, limb dutchess
Lightning frayed her faces
We'd just wanna be left by
Too gone, ask to admit it
Calm my whit
To the king
As me one
Camp to say
Justin too play
Neil too hey
I, their way
Stay the same
So ear be-all the wurst-uh
Don't settle for Yule, no high
Ease dropped wind you warned shore
Self, scarce shit list lion
Dyeing at the el are
The member born babies?
Is this intake the old Waze?
Have enough good old days?
6. CRADLE OF ROCKS
Small as you are
Lost in thought
Dreaming of love
Cradle of rocks
(One, two, here we go)
When you lay you down, the night starts to spin
For fear of missing out
The dead heat of words and prose and scenes
You just can't let it go
Edges of your eyes strobing in the weak
Night running out
You're never too young to rest
So won't you take it slow?
Small as you are
Lost in thought
Dreaming of love
Cradle of rocks
You don't even know the dices that you'll roll
The dips in the road
White-knuckle your bones to stay your course
You just can't let it go
If you're quick to hate and if you're slow to love
Well, that's your hitch to tow
You're never too old to change
So don't you prove me wrong
Small as you are
Lost in thought
Dreaming of love
Cradle of rocks
Oh, pebbles dream upstream to grow into boulders
Holding up mountains and cairns rolling forward
Pebbles dream upstream to grow into boulders
Holding up mountains and cairns rolling forward
I guess, like, the eight-hour grading days are really hard for, for me
Like, I was finding it really difficult
And I don't have a pleasant disposition to begin with
And, and, um, so, and, I, I don't really, like
7. LOVELL
[Gavin Wallace-Ailsworth]
One, two
One, two, three, four
Oh, okay
[Vince Welch]
Really cool what she did there with the stabs
[Ben Levin]
Yeah, I like those chords
[Jessica Kion]
Uh, I-
[Vince Welch]
I like how out of tune this guitar has gotten in, like, the last thirty seconds
[Jessica Kion]
I-I-I'd like to do something different, you guys keep doing that
[Gavin Wallace-Ailsworth]
Okay
[Jessica Kion]
I think it-
8. LOVEMENOT
Ladies and gentlemen
Boys and girls
You love me or you love me not (Here's hoping)
You love me and will be my box (To live in)
We'll stand together, cast one great shadow
We'll put our heads together, make plants grow
You love me
Love me not
You love me or you love me not (You're showing)
You'd rather squirrel away my heart (Than know it)
We'll stand together, not standing on another
Blowing kisses at the others, throwing flowers in the furnace
You love me
Love me not
You love me
Love me not
You love me or you love me not
You love me or you love me not
You love me or you love me not
You love me or you love me not
9. BIRD SONG
Looking for myself in the birdshit on my car
Rorschach holds a mirror from their wings to my heart
In the motel sign, ballerina and a moth
Many voltage light, many missed and soon forgot
I keep it open
I let the birds in
I set their song free
Though it doesn't make sense to me
Holy greyhound bus hums the frequency of love
Little feathers float on my pillow and my comb
I feel it when you go, like you are my voodoo doll
I'm glorious, I'm glowing in the sign above it all
So I keep it open
I let the birds in
I set their song free
Though it doesn't make sense to me
I keep it open
I let the birds in
I set their song free
Though it doesn't make sense to me
10. CATCH LIGHT
Everyone knows my elbows should be nowhere near yours
Watch as I slip my way into the room
I'm sorry I had something on my mind
I’m sorry I do not speak unless I
Move through me a while
Like I haven't ever been before
Spin me more, make me unfold
I wanna catch light
Step on my lines as I smile, pretend I don't got ’em
You could light me on fire, oh, I'm just happy to be here
I'm sorry I had something on my mind
I'm sorry I do not speak unless I'm sure I'm right, ah!
Move through me a while
Like I haven't ever been before
Spin me more, make me unfold
I wanna catch light
Move through me a while
Like I haven't ever been before
Spin me more, make me unfold
I wanna catch light
Move through me a while
(Poppy seed muffin, poppy seed, whoa)
Oh, move through me a while
Like I haven’t ever been before
Ah, spin me more, make me unfold
I wanna catch light
I wanna catch light
I wanna catch light
I wanna catch light
I wanna catch light
11. GARBAGE SHARK
Unhand me now
Unhand me now
Phasing light posts swinging on
Can you imagine us on it?
Never was a wanderer
I've loved, I'll love again
I'll love again
Hand in hand for now
We're flying without a wheel
We're unbuckling my waist belt
Unhand me now
Diesel star burning bright through your sky
Pull me out of the trunk and your mind
Diesel star burning bright through your sky
Pull me out of the trunk and your mind
Wave of glass, coral gash, metal brine
Garbage shark, minnow blood, take your time
12. GOLDEN HOUR
All the love in the world is not enough
For you have a head start
Somewhere in the sparkle of your eye
There's a memory I can't leave behind
In a car, on a train
No shade, I criss-cross every
Voicemail I can't delete
I'm saving up for square one as a
New adult, fresh alone
Heart flies half-mast
And I rush to face the love that shapes me
The way you nod, the way you talk
The silly stuff, the "had to be there" and the
Nagging sense of what we lost
The emboss wears down
And I rush to face the love that shapes me
Golden hour let the tears run free
We love to give
We love to lose
We love to live
We love to die
We sacrifice what we remind
We love to give
We love to lose
We love to live
We love to die
We sacrifice what we remind
The love
All the love in the world is not enough
13. IT HAPPENS
Good boys are a lot of fun
They vote and clean up when they're done
Fast summer on tank top lane
I met a dreamer on roller skates
Pet back and pinched his cheeks
I laughed with him for seven weeks
When wonder had its way
He cut me off, I said okay
(It happens)
Tall girls seemed out of reach
But I met one who didn't look down on me
She had so much to say
I read each word and washed away
I wake up in that tub
With dreams of hot nights when I was young
There's nothing like the first
But I'm no better or no worse
(It happens)
And I got there by going there
Please don't rush me
I got there by going there
Please don't rush me
'Cause I got there by going there
Please don't rush me
I got there by going there
Please don't rush me
I'm never running again
