What's holding you down?
Is it endless endings, or always pretending that
you'll be alright come the morning?
It doesn't have to be true
Remember there's good
If you'd only look
Relinquish the weight you've been holding.
At the end of it all
Everything's not so awful.
At the rise and the fall.
Our slow dance with the day light
At the end of it all
Every thing must go.
Day by day we fall apart
but tomorrow arrives, protest all you like
as if the sun only rose just to spite you
It's not the end of the world
Although it feels like it should be
But the grass will still grow
above or below me
I promise you.
We are all that we have
Sticks and stones
Blood and bone
and some time.
We are all that we have
We are all that we have
And that's all
Y'know
At the end of it all
Everything's not so awful.
At the rise and the fall.
Our slow dance with the day light
At the end of it all:
Every Thing...

Riding the line between indie pop and psychedelic folk, the songs on the latest from The Madeleines are as gorgeous as they are mysterious. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 22, 2022
