My friends, you best hope this never happens to you.
This song's about a man who took his own life,
And the woman he left behind.
I can see the ghosts in her eyes
Laugh when her smile breaks.
You took the cowards way out.
You ruined her life.
Couldn't stand the shame.
Couldn't face the pain
In your wife's eyes.
Dear sir,
You took the cowards way out.
You ruined her life.
With all the tests
And uncertainty,
Due to your cowardice
And infidelity.
The Minneapolis band add a horn section, a running surrealist allegory about walls, and an occasional nod to the elegiac to their electroshocked post-punk. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 4, 2024
