I SAW YOUR FACE
Staring down at me from a window across the street
You were there and then you disappeared
As if you vanished in thin air
I wondered if it was all a dream
I closed my eyes and opened them again
I stared at the place you should have been
I wondered if it all really happened
I walked around my town thinking about you
I thought that ghosts were disfigured and warped but you were as pretty and as perfect as a rose
The next night I woke at 3:15 to find you sitting in your window
Your desperate eyes called me and I was helplessly lost in your gaze, lost in way that you stared
I found myself waking up at night obsessing with catching a glimpse of the way you glide
the sadness in your eyes was like an eclipse of the sun, like a dark cloud choking out the sunlight
every night it was the same, I would wake up at 3:15
to find you beckoning me with those silver dollar eyes
I wanted to steal them and keep them by my bedside
I fell in love with the nights we shared
But with every night I grew more and more aware
Of the space between us and the tension in the air
As I feel deeper into the depths of this love affair
one of the best and most excellent midwest emo record there is! amazingly well mixed for midwest emo. waterbed from this record compared to their mv version proves how important a good mix is, because suddenly this song sounds a lot more raw yet well produced in here. singaporecentralemo
I'm almost feeling this even more than their newest release. You feel the singer in your gut. Every single piece of this band falls into fucking step, a wonder to behold. You'll listen to it a million times after the first: might as well start now. Leo F
