It settles in the air
it lingers in the fog
It echoes through the forest
It waits til something’s wrong
It sees you in the dark and keeps you there too long
By then you can’t ignore it
It’s been there all along
Oh how I wish you were wrong
But you were right all along
It’s way too easy to be a ghost
It’s way too easy to be a ghost

No one’s seen my face since MySpace
I’m not on Facebook so no one bothers to look
I wonder if the friends that I had
Have wondered where I’ve been since the days of undergrad
It ain’t no one’s fault if it isn’t mine
After all it only takes a couple clicks to get online
It’s never you it’s always me
Instead of friends I’ve chosen privacy
One of these days I’ll throw away my pride
One of these days I’ll make a Facebook,
One of these days I’ll send you a friend request & then maybe I’ll say hi
I’ve also got a problem with posting
And everybody knows I’m too good with ghosting, it’s no thing man
I like my solitude, but I’m lonely when I’m not with you, aye
I must admit, you stay on my mind
But i know you think of me as mr. Nice guy, I guess that’s fine,
but I really wanna try with you but i
I’m shy, Tongue tied every time I look into those beautiful eyes, no lie
I really wish you’d be mine, in real life, or at least online

I strike myself down for you
The way that you want me to
But that’s not enough for you
Anything to make you swoon
It’s a strangers heart
That beats my own into my chest
In a quiet room
I hear it tick the loudest
I’d need stronger lungs before you take my breathe away, for good
As I’m spiraling down, it makes you swoon
Now I decompose for you
The worms are feeding from my spoon
The wretched words that sealed my tomb
With simple gestures heal my wounds
It’s a strangers heart
That beats my own into my chest
In a quiet room
I hear it tick the loudest
I’d need stronger lungs, before you take my breathe away, for good
It’s your sadist song, your favorite tune

Is it still leverage if I let you have it
what’s the difference between love and a habit?
I don’t know

Drawing on everything from soft-focus C86 like The Field Mice to distortion-heavy shoegaze, “Eulogies” is pop perfection.

living in memory of something sweet

Undeniable melodies swim up from beneath layers of distortion and effects, making this a psych-pop winner.
