Feeling like a bag of bones
Drag me where you wanna go
Spent the winter kicking stones
Waiting for a plant to grow
Not much time is left
Not much time is left
Sunflower yellow
It's all you got
Sunflower yellow
Time to wake up
Sunflower yellow
The sun is out
Need some time to clear my head
Sleeping on a flower bed
Not much time is left
Not much time is left
Sunflower yellow
It's all you got
Sunflower yellow
Time to wake up
Sunflower yellow
The sun is out
Never felt so dumb
Staring at the sun
Change your pupil size
Like David Bowie's eyes
Sunflower yellow
It's all you got
Sunflower yellow
Time to wake up
Sunflower yellow
The sun is out
The sun is out

Chew for You

Took all that they needed it seems
Shaking like a leaf in the breeze
God knows it was time for a new smile anyway
Never should have looked back
Never should have looked back
Never should have looked back
I want you to know I can chew for you
I want you to know
Took all that they needed it seems
Shook me down
God knows it was time for a new smile anyway
Wouldn’t be the first time
Wouldn’t be the first time
Wouldn’t be the last time
I want you to know I can chew for you
I want you to know
And not too far behind
The shadow in your starry eyes
Makes a shape I’ve never seen
And I can barely breathe
(Just wanted to breathe)
I want you to know I can chew for you
Chew for you
(I want you to know)

The cards are on the table
I would, but I’m not able
To play with these hands
My shirts are always wrinkled
For me it’s not so simple
To think for myself
I said I won’t forget you
She said I wouldn’t let you
Even if you tried
The stars are all so low tonight
The clouds are awful dull at night
I think that I’ll just glow
I know you’re steady now
I know you’re heading out
All those times that I saw
All those quotes on the wall
Never meant shit to me
Corduroy pants that fit too small
Take this piece and break it off
Never meant shit to me
Peel my scabs, one by one
See my skin come undone
Peel my scabs, one by one
See my skin come undone
Come undone
I know you’re steady now
Your eyes look heavy now
All those times that I saw
All those quotes on the wall
Never meant shit to me
Corduroy pants that fit too small
Take this piece and break it off
Never meant shit to me
Peel my scabs, one by one
See my skin come undone
Peel my scabs, one by one
See my skin come undone
Feel my lungs collapse
(Lungs collapse)
See my veins detach
(Veins detach)
Keep my frame intact
(Frame intact)
Keep my brain

Lemon Drop

Spend your quarter on a candy too sweet
Never worth it once it melts through your teeth
Try the flavor and spit it out in the sink
When you saw me at the top of your street
You would light up like a pinball machine
We would glitter from all the sugar we’d eat
You’re the flower in a painting I made
In my thoughts when I was laying in bed
Tear the petals and make a wish to myself
Have a feeling that I’ve seen you around
Is there a reason why you fade in and out?
I’ve got a secret but I can’t say it out loud
Dollar bill with your name written on it
Thought you had it but it slipped out your pocket
All this time on your hands with no one there to spend it with
Things that happen can’t let them define you
Always know I’ll be right there beside you
Find some good in the things that always seem to bum you out
Getting rained on
Saw a rainbow
Getting spaced out
In our raincoats
There’s a rain cloud
And the drops fall down
Thought of what I wanted to say
“Never thought I’d see you again”
But now you’re here and my mouth’s shut
I’m just happy to know that you’ll be sticking around
Spend your quarter on a candy too sweet
Never worth it once it melts through your teeth
Try the flavor and spit it out in the sink

Ramune
02:30

Took a comb to part my hair
"I'll be ready, just a minute"
Had a sip of ramune
Tied my shoelace, favorite T-shirt
Ran outside, I nearly tripped
Laughed about it, opened the car door
When you heard I had a band
Turned the volume up on the speakers
And you watched my face turn red
"Always weird to hear how my voice sounds"
When we went to bed you said
"I can't be here any longer"
Then you kissed my head and left
Slip-on sneaker, rubber gum sole
Took a sip of ramune
Bright blue label, codd neck bottle
Marble clogs the final drop
I can never get what I wanted

Things that cross your mind
Cross them out in time
I can’t draw straight lines
You say I’ll be fine
I’ll be fine
I’ve been having dreams
I can’t remember them all
Maybe for the best
I’ve been seeing things
Can’t comprehend them all
Maybe I’ll just rest
But if I rest this time, I’ll
If I rest this time, I’ll sleep
Roll on plastic spheres
No one else is near
Played me from the start
Who broke Neil Young’s heart?
I’ve been having dreams
I can’t remember them all
Maybe for the best
I’ve been seeing things
Can’t comprehend them all
Maybe I’ll just rest
But if I rest this time, I’ll
If I rest this time, I’ll
If I rest this time, I’ll
If I rest this time, I’ll
If I rest this time, I’ll
Sleep

Balloons

She said she wants it this way
I wouldn’t mind if you stayed
You left me with a toothache
Won’t you take me back now
True test of time is slowing my mind
Can’t you bring me back down
Tongue tied, twisted keeps me unkind
Don’t you fake me out now
True test of time is drowning my mind down to the wishing well, oh well
In tune with things that you say
Balloons keep floating your way
Up where the air is too tight
Wanted to be there tonight
Pain brings us closer to the light
Don’t you fake me out now
True test of time is drowning my mind down to the wishing well, oh well
Can you take me back now
It’s been so long since I have found out
Can you bring me back to the place where I grew up where we belong
Can you take me back now
You shot it, you shot my lungs out
Can you take me back now
Can you take me back now
Give in, take back
Don’t you say that
Give in, take back
Far out, so close
Patterns don’t choke
Far out, so close
It’s you and me
When I’m looking down
It’s only me
When you’re not around

Shoulder Blades
04:07
|

|
Why does it always take so long
For me to say “I love you”
Why do I feel like it’s my fault
When I’m not around you
Can’t be myself now that you’re gone
There’s just something about you
I take these things you say to heart
So if you say “I love you”
I could wait a while to turn the page
And hold you on my shoulder blades
Looking at you through a telescope lens
I can see the way your beauty marks blend
Constellations, hard to face it
Maybe I won’t see them there again
I kept those things that you forgot
In the back of my mind’s eye
I take these things you say to heart
So if you say “I love you”
I could wait a while to turn the page
And hold you on my shoulder blades
My head spins faster than the planets above your ceiling
And I feel like I might crash
My ears keep ringing from the sound of your heart beating
And I hope this feeling lasts
(Why did it have to be so hard?)
Why did it have to be so hard
For me to say “I want you”
Why do I feel like it’s my fault
When I’m not around you
Why does it always take so long
For me to say “I love you”
Can’t be myself now that you’re gone
There’s just something about you
If it holds me down, I’ll stay in place
The weight against my shoulder blades from you

Stare at the moon ‘til you feel like you’ve been eaten alive
Being confused is a fair enough reason to cry
I haven’t smiled
Showing teeth in quite a while
I need to hide
But I think I’ll stay here
Nothing left to do but float around with you
Nothing left to do but float around with you
Float around
A light next door in the yard that I can see from my room
A sign of hope I’ll get my shit together sometime soon
I haven’t cried
Showing tears in quite a while
I need to hide
But I think I’ll stay here
Nothing left to do but float around with you
Nothing left to do but float around with you
Float around
I know you know the time and place
I know you know I want to stay
You know I know what’s yours is mine
I know you know I blew your mind
You know I know I blew your mind
You know I know I blew your mind
You know I know I blew your mind
You know I know I blew your mind

The Softness of Lead
03:52
|
|||
|
He’s been waiting patiently
In the garden with flowers for me
She’s been falling fast asleep
Tripping on the clouds in her sheets
All the stories untold are unraveling
Figure out on your own what’s happening
He’s been waiting patiently
In the garden with flowers for me
She’s been falling fast asleep
Tripping on the clouds of her dreams
All the thoughts in her head break away with the softness of lead
All the nights that she spent holding hands with a friend of a friend
But they’re just friends
The story ends

Spend some time reading comics
Ones with all the colors on it
The more you read the more you want it to be real life
But it’s not how it works
Spend your time chasing comets
Ones with all the colors on ‘em
The more you see the more you want it to be real
life
But it’s not how it works
I’m reading faster than my mind can go
And I feel like I might die if I don’t
I’m reading faster than my eyes can go
Cause I feel like I’ll explode if I don’t
And I feel like I might die
Spend my time reading comics
Ones with all the colors on it
The more I read the more I want it to be real life
But it’s not how it works
I’m reading faster than my mind can go
And I feel like I might die if I don’t
I’m reading faster than my eyes can go
Cause I feel like I’ll explode if I don’t
Cause I feel like I’ll explode
I told you to read this couple thousand times before
I hope you don’t mind
I know you don’t need me, but maybe someday down the line
Our hearts beat in time
I’m reading faster than my mind can go
(I don’t even mind, I don’t even mind)
I’m reading faster than my eyes can go
(I don’t even mind, I don’t even mind)
I’m reading faster than my mind can go
(I don’t even mind, I don’t even mind)
I’m reading faster than my eyes can go
(I don’t even mind)
I don’t even mind

Been following Somos for many years, feeling that they had an opus in them...well, here it is. Driving pop-punk sensibilities lend an upbeat tone in contrast to the grim lyrical proceedings, and they absolutely pull it off. Evocative music that's been on repeat for me all month long. RIP, Phil
