lyrics

Baby be the rooftop over my head
Or I'll be the roof and you be four walls instead
I don't want to need you but there's a vacant space
The one before dug it deep, not to be replaced

If I let you in will you stretch it to fit?
Will you dig a ditch and lay down conduit?
If in time that line becomes compromised,
between me and myself, I might not survive.

(CHORUS)
Are we just two wrongs trying to make it right?
Are we lost driving circles circles cause we're blind?
Somehow its hard to trust the way you're always on my side.

Let's you and me make our rounds of these states
Maybe we're fate or maybe we're a big mistake
Will we destroy each other or destroy ourselves?
Carve your name in the wall deep inside my well

When two like us have been through this much
does it make us weak or does it make us tough?
Its been hard but we've come this far
we tangled hands and crossed a lot of land
Remember the time that we almost broke?
We peeled each other like artichokes

CHORUS

Maybe both of us just want to be ruined
We'll still trick each other while we do it
We've both been blamed for way too much and some that we believe
Whether they are wrong or right, you might still make a wreck of me

Are we just two wrongs trying to make it right?
Are we lost driving circles circles cause we're blind?
Sometimes I think you love so much that your love must be blind.
Sometimes I think you love so much that your love must be blind.

While music wasn't very present in their upbringing, Boekbinder recalls some of their first memories as making up songs. For them, music is as natural and as necessary as breath. Songwriting has become their resistance language. ... more
