Yeah, I’d sure be sad to see it go.
The whole world erupting would put on quite a show.
After so many questions, I guess we’d finally know,
At least I’ll get to say that I told you so.
Not a question of “if” but “when”.
We can breathe again, because the last wave missed us.
It’s just a matter of time, they say,
With one eye on the bay, while fires rage from Mumbai to Texas.
Though we can’t stop living for fear of “what ifs”,
We can still make ready while the storm is out at sea.
Or say fuck all that and fuck you all because I got mine, right?
Oh Stephen, how you’ve failed us all.
Like a guard dog howling at lights passing in the night
While thieves break in through the back, you’re missing the point.
Not a question of “if” but “when”.
We can breathe again, because the last wave missed us.
It’s just a matter of time, they say,
With one eye on the bay, while fires rage from Mumbai to Texas.

A pop-punk album full of both angst and maturity. A lot of this album is about growing up, but I've been consistently coming back to this album for over 5 years and it never gets old. evan_burman
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
