Come Around 07:17
No more Will I try to hide Behind doors I am yours And I’m here today Won’t you stay? Won’t you Lady Wild-eyed staring at the wind with your wits about you How are you to Stand in the cold In the fall, with the world At the turn, it’ll burn It’ll burn, it’ll fall Well Nothing will ever make a sound Nothing could ever make me found My eyes can’t leave the ground Until you come around Nothing is the air I breathe Nothing is the color that I see My feet are stuck here on the ground Until you come around

Break my back And I'm walking around I kiss the ground Chopping up daisies And healthy expressions And new directions Just find the problem And tell me I’m not wrong I’ve said what you’re going to say Paranoia Blink twice if you know me You don't have to know me I- I- I- I- I- I- I wish you'd believe me Please say that you need me Just tell me you need me Sand in the clockwork Is getting out of bed Or thinking of what to say I am an island That’s stranded on dry land But sinks in the ocean I- I- I- I- I- I- I wish you'd believe me Please say that you need me Just tell me you need me

She dances across the hardwood floors And it doesn't mean a thing I know she's the girl for me But tell me where do I find her? Oh, come and let your heart shine down Oh, just don't be late I’ll sail across the sea And walk around the Earth I swear that I’ve felt this before But not nearly as pure, oh where can I find her? Oh, come and let your heart shine down Oh, just don't be late Where could I find her? Where can she be? I'm not quite sure of her hair or eyes, Or her size, or why she is not next to me But I can't rest until I finally find her, I know she's around, and I'll make her mine, I swear that I would let my heart shine down Oh but I can't wait

Making no sense But everyone around me says it So it has to make sense I know better Everyone around me knows it too But I know better And I am right And you are right to say you're wrong You're oh so very stupid And I appreciate the finer things in life Like lemonlight You just don't get it I'm so different Everyone else is different too But I'm so different I hate everything I don't know what I like Cause I sure as hell know I hate most everything And I am right And you are right to say you're wrong You're oh so very silly And I appreciate the finer things in life Like lemonlight You just don't get it And I have seen it all before And I have seen it all before And I have seen it all I have seen it all And I have seen it all before And I have seen it all before And I am disappointed And I have blessed your mentions now with Phony tooth and self-made crown And I am disappointed

No one hears him coming No one sees him sleep He's the creaking of the floorboards He's the thing you think you want to be Khakis and a smile Eyes like kerosene He is shaving off his fingers And you will think that's introspective, well Can he be When there's an axe inside her head? Can he be When no one is to blame? Can he be When he’s walking around another lonely house? Undying devotion He's friends all think he's neat Wherever that he wants to go That is the place to be They never hear him coming She's gathering her sleep If they could see him like this Oh, what would they think Could they see That there's an axe inside her head? Could they see That no one is to blame? Could they see That he’s walking around another lonely house? Well?
6.
He's on the floor He's still begging for more He's just reaching for attention That he never got alone Another over there Running fingers through his hair Keeping everything in place And no one ever seems to care And she's on her phone But we just won't leave her alone She'd just love to keep on drinking But her friends have all gone home And I'm being loud Saying nothing to everyone here Oh god this night is over and I think I'm gonna miss the nights like this He's going home And he's way too drunk to drive He is too old to be doing this But it helps him feel alive She’s all alone When she’s standing in the mirror As another day goes by She sees her mother getting clearer I can try to cut my hair Shake it off, cut my losses I must be doing something wrong Cause I can’t make myself care I just can’t be loud Won’t say a word to anyone Oh my god this night is over and I think I’m gonna miss the nights like this And I don't even want to feel this anymore And I don't want to have to feel this anymore That la-da-da-da-da-da-da-da I can feel it coming again And it comes and it goes

Has the cat gotten your tongue? Do you have nothing to say? Are you really that interested in me? With your feet towards the door In a very peculiar way Are you thinking about what I'm trying to say? And you're crawling the floor Because it's much safer that way Being see-through rather than seeing in grey Listen to my newest punchline Have you heard my old one I don't have much here to tell you Waiting for something to come about And it's almost clear again why Have you seen my old one And I don't have much left to tell you Waiting for some to come around There are men in the room There are three men in this room And I am not the one speaking their opinions It's a joke, it's a laugh It's a novelty at last And no one learns the game because the words are in the past It's my fault after all What you say is what you are And I'm the one who speaks to you, how have I made it this far? It's a joke, it's a laugh It's a novelty at last And I don't know the game because the words are in the past

about

The Stone Lows Rochester, New York

Hailing from Rochester, New York, The Stone Lows are comprised of singer/guitarist Liam James Welch, bassist Henry O’Brien, guitarist Edward McAndrew, and Alexander Klick on drums. At a glance, The Stone Lows are a band that seem to relish the idea of never creating the same music twice, but with a closer look, they chase the sounds they enjoy, from pop to prog rock to neo-psychedelia ... more
