lyrics

I've got this far
By thinking of you
With your cardboard heart
Needed something to do

Bet you miss the times
When I took you away
From your 5 to 9
And the things people say

Blinded by the sun
A perfect day

Don't think, don't lie,
Just open your eyes
What your folks did then
Just doesn't apply

Reclamation project
Is all that I am
Not quite so lost
Still not quite a man

Blinded by the sun
A perfect day

Funny how you're making the best of it
Always missing the rest of it
Through the bars it still shines
While you run and hide
From a perfect day

So sad to watch
While the tail's wagging you
Watching in the dark
Think he'd learn something new

Then again you said
He had reason to be
Knowing what you are
Stands to reason he'd see
What I missed beyond
That perfect day

Look at you making the best of it
Still missing the rest of it
There's two stars that still shine
While you run and hide
From a perfect day

Keep thinking this is the rest of me
While you're missing the best of me
Maybe in another life
Where you run and hide
From a perfect day

No Weapon But Love

Such a joyful collection of songs. Nothing like quintessential Melbourne alternative rock to lift the spirits. Listening during yet another lockdown transports me to a band room in my favourite pub. Thanks for the music lads- looking forward to seeing you for real when we get outta here. Jacqui L

No Guitar

Don't believe the name of their latest album; jangle-pop hooks and stacked grunge guitars are two of the Bay Area band's greatest gifts. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 16, 2023
