lyrics

The Fine Line

I turn around
To see my life dissolving piece by piece
Stacked up in the street in big black bags
I take my coffee black
You know that

The prophecy
The prophecy in my paper just came true
The psychic on page forty spoke of you
And what I put you through
I blew it

I’m coping well
I only stayed up late five nights this week
But I don’t like how I feel when I’m asleep
Except when you’re there
But you’re not there

Hold nothing back
Tell me everything you think is wrong
And I will try to change them while I’m gone
I won’t be long
Well, I hope not

Don’t try to explain
No cause to complain
Don’t change all the locks
You’re all that I’ve got
Don’t hang up the phone
I won’t be alone
That’s deeply unfair
You know you’re my air

Won’t answer my calls
Won’t come to the door
I’m trying my best
How can I give more
Can’t eat and can’t sleep
Can’t talk and can’t think
Your twisting your hair
Could drive me to drink

You live on the ground
With your head in the clouds
You open your arms
Thinking aloud

But you’re all that I’ve got

Gorman Glasgow, UK

Dark moods with soaring vocals - fierce but fragile, harrowing but hopeful. From solitary piano and voice with delay-laden textures to sizzling guitars with anthemic hooks, Gorman are the long, silent fall through darkness AND the fiery, reverberating impact at the end. ... more
