about
The second single off Chess at Breakfast's upcoming debut album.
lyrics
Please, not now.
I’ll let you know when I’m ready to talk about
what’s gold and what’s not gold
I think you may have creased a smile.
you’re not like you and nothing makes sense,
at least not when it takes two to dance
It’s still likely that I’ll wait, but with bias, berate you until I can’t
This isn’t me—
Fighting against what you mishear is “rightfully bliss”
It takes all my air
and though I’m not a flyer,
I suggest we go higher than this
With wounded wings, you step back from me
Take me as your paper crane.
I’ll construct however you’d like,
you can put me over the pyre
But, Keeper, don’t light me on fire
Now I can see while you sink your hips, your ribs are starting to wear,
And I can see as you clinch your fists, your wrists are staring to tear
Maybe we just love to corrupt
If we don’t wanna settle down in the middle of a
Magma crust about to erupt
if we don’t wanna settle down
This isn’t me—
Fighting against what you mishear is “rightfully bliss”
It takes all my air
and though I’m not a flyer,
I suggest we go higher than this
With wounded wings, you step back from me
Take me as your paper crane
I’ll construct however you’d like,
you can hang me over the pyre
But, Creature, don't light me on fire

A hazy delight from the Los Angeles band; Chillwave synth lines co-mingle with psychedelic guitars, crisp drums, and luxe string samples. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 6, 2021
The Besnard Lakes return with their first new LP in four years, full of the same mystery and wonder on which they have built their name. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 30, 2020
The Besnard Lakes are back with a new 12", and a new single. Expansive and psychedelic, much like the band's previous work. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 29, 2016
