about
The lyrics of If Only (You Said No) reflect the internal conflict of really wanting someone but struggling to admit it. The vocals ride smoothly on top of moving synthesizers and guitar lines painting a picture of a vast open landscape with a cold atmosphere.
lyrics
I hear you come around standing at the door
I know it's you think I'll ignore
While the rest of them are falling
Love isn't something that I need anymore
If only you would go but I won't stop calling
If only you could know this door won't open
If only you stayed home I'll be waiting for it
If only you said no
So hear I am waiting standing at the door
It's just another night but there's something else in store
While you were out there falling
I was hoping that you wanted me the most
If only you would go but I won't stop calling
If only you could know this door won't open
If only you stayed home I'll be waiting for it
If only you said no
If only you would go but I won't stop calling
If only you could know this door won't open
If only you stayed home I'll be waiting for it
If only you said no

Shoegaze ist die Kunst des DrΓΆhnens, doch βEverything Is Aliveβ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutΓΌrmen, schΓ€umt die Musik in feinen BlΓ€schen ΓΌber.

On their latest LP, the Austin group peel away the synth and distortion to highlight the jangly melodies at the core of their songs. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 9, 2022
