I've been trying not to piss you off I've been trying but it's so hard to stay calm You've been crying and I guess that you've forgotten how to smile I can't No I just can't stop Just stop I've been trying not to fuck things up I've been trying but I am never enough You've been lying and I guess now that it's time to call your bluff I can't No I just can't stop

I'll be the first to admit I'm not used to all this I'm not usually the falling kind But I guess I fell for your smile It's like a tidal wave escaped from the depths And it swept you right up And right into my chest and I guess You can stay there I was scared of all the possibilities Til you reassured me You wouldn't let me fall and scrape up both my knees 'Cause you adore me Every day it feels like playing make-believe I think you've cured me Of my stupid "I-Hate-Myself" disease You reassure me I was scared of all the possibilities Til you reassured me You wouldn't let me fall and scrape up both my knees 'Cause you adore me Every day it feels like playing make-believe I think you've cured me Of my stupid "I-Hate-Myself" disease You reassure me

Child 03:47
I took a walk on the tree tops I woke up in my bed Trying to deal with the doors locked All inside of my head.. Said, "Move along now, child" I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying "Tides are high now, child" I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying "It changes nothing, child" I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying "It will be a while, before anything makes any sense" Goodbye innocence Goodbye niceness I don't deserve this, no no no I don't deserve it Said, "Move along now, child" I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying "Tides are high now, child" I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying "Kill yourself, now, child" Said, "Move along now, child" I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying "Tides are high now, child" I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying It has been a while since anything's made any sense Goodbye innocence

Time is but a grain of sand sittin' in an hourglass Sittin' in the devil's hands God damn Hail Satan we're just trying to sell our souls to make us famous but I just want make you smile I just want to make you laugh I just want to take you out I want to make you proud, make you proud All my life I've been laying on a bed of knives and rusty nails Now I'm sadder than I've ever been but I'm glad you're doing well Life is just a crooked grin, sittin' on the face of a broken man That's all it ever was God damn Hail Satan we're just trying to sell our souls to make us famous but I just want to hold your hand I just want to make you mine I just want to take you out I want to make you proud, make you proud All my life I've been laying on a bed of knives and rusty nails Now I'm sadder than I've ever been but I'm glad you're doing well

Do you dream of me When you're falling asleep? Does our memory bleed Into your everyday? Do you yell at her? Does she make you feel better? Does she hold on to your words Like they're the last that you'll ever say? Why won't you let me inside? Why do I let it hurt my pride? Do you think of me When you see all these things? We used to make believe We could make it through all of this Do you yell at her? Does she make you feel better? Does she? Hold on to my words 'Cause they're the last that I'll ever say? Why won't you let me inside? Why do I let it hurt my pride?

Take my hand and walk with me, my darlin' I'm lonely And you're the missing puzzle piece I always say something fucked up that I don't mean and I mean You are the better part of me Now what am I supposed to do with that? I don't know how to act when I'm not sad And you make me! Take my hand and walk with me, my darlin' I'm lonely You are the better part of things I never knew I could love myself so complete Completely I never knew this side of me Now what am I supposed to do with that? I don't know how to act when I'm not sad And you make me! Happy! Yeah you make me happy! Woah Woah Woah Woah woahs forever.

about

Brides Salem, Oregon

"Mashing up genres is nothing new and we all know that. However, Brides \ from Salem OR (the cultural terror pit of the NW) get loud and groovy- bringing a fun twist to the mix. Their sound gets lost somewhere between indie surf rock and riotgrrl punk. Jocelyn Paige's vocals bow and sway above and below the mix creating an incredibly intimate experience in a live music setting." ... more
