"These tracks are desperate, thrashing odes to fleeting youth and existential angst, grounded by the heaving weight of biblical doom. This is shit-thrilling music of the highest degree, elegiac and rousing in the same breath."

lyrics

I didn't wanna' die young,
I didn't wanna' die at twenty-one,
The saddest song I've ever sung.
"What about my best friends?"
"The kids that I grew up with,"
I think you'd say.
Cause' I couldn't write it any other way.

We pass through time lines,
We make our whole live count,
but growing up means counting down.
I can act like nothing's happened,
I still have my doubts.
When I heard her crying that night
the truth came out.

A bad dream,
this can't be happening.
I'll wake up and you'll be there laughing.
A brother,
A best friend,
A true love left with a loose end.
A sequence of sad events
I keep repeating
over and over and over and over again.

We spend a life time
on buying into death.
Have we forgot the purpose?
You taught me not to worry,
let problems resolve themselves.
So I think of you
and try and settle down.

A bad dream,
this can't be happening.
I'll wake up and you'll be there laughing.
A brother,
A best friend,
A true love left with a loose end.
A sequence of sad events
I keep repeating.
A bad dream,
this can't be happening.
I'll wake up and you'll be there laughing.
A brother,
A best friend,
A true love left with a loose end.
A sequence of sad events
I keep repeating
over and over and over and over again.

Perfectly encapsulates the teenage experience. Finding this album while still young and in high school was the best decision I've made in quite awhile. charlesjr

Iron Chic's narrative, some of the most aware & conscientious lyrics you will find in punk. The music is just as damn good... "There's no answers, so take a guess & make up the rest" "I couldn't stand to watch you die, so I died first, that's how I survived" 🌸💀🌸💀🌸 ©ough©ool
