lyrics

Down here we only see trees
Miles and miles of canopies
We could burn it to the ground
With these matches that I found
I wouldn't catch birds with bees
and call it serendipity I know
I wouldn't catch you around here
Unless you had nowhere else to go

Down here we watch you get by
With the smile you hide behind
It's not my fault
I shoulda seen it coming is all
I miss looking in your eyes and knowing
I am safe at home
I miss the the time that I spent
Not wishing that I was alone

Sooner or later we've all said enough
When we're not angry, now
Sooner the better for every one here
You keep saying save me
Maybe now

Sticks and stones and
All the bones you hate
To break
Purse your lips
And clench your fist
It's all ok
Lock-jawed in awe
I saw you break your fall
Don't stop to call my draw
I waited all night
Sitting here in your sights
Shoot when you see the whites of my eyes

Down here we don't tend to sleep
We shoot dice and play for keeps
And all this time
I'm been looking for an old friend of mine
I saw him break on the roof
For unwanted truth again
I saw him wake up in the morning
Masked and ready to play pretend

Sooner or later we've all said enough
When we're not angry, now
Sooner the better for every one here
You keep saying save me
Maybe now

Sticks and stones and
All the bones you hate
To break
Purse your lips
And clench your fist
It's all ok
Lock-jawed in awe
I saw you break your fall
Don't stop to call my draw
I waited all night
Sitting here in your sights

Never gonna leave,
You're never gonna be alright
Go fly on your kites
Cut holes in your candle light
You were gonna be a racer
Gonna talk on the wind
Now you're all alone
In the cage that we've been waiting in

Down here down here we wait for
Your sticks and stones to call your name
Off and on, it's all the same
Relating and fading away

Never gonna leave,
You're never gonna be alright
Go fly on your kites
Cut holes in your candle light
You were gonna be a racer
Gonna talk on the wind
Now you're all alone
In the cage that we've been waiting in

about

Fizzbang Hamtramck, Michigan

Born, like so many others, in the basements of Bloomington this young band is the bastard spawn of a some beautiful bastard dawn. It's like if the Arctic Monkeys were to have an affair with the Foo Fighters and then as if that child were to somehow meet Biffy Clyro and The Strokes and have a three way with them?!! The unruly lab rat consequences of that bang were ultimate and deciding. ... more
