lyrics

I never felt more lifeless in the summer
until I put it out with one goodbye
I see no future without the one I adore
I’m still cryin’ and listenin’ to Björk

I wish she’d hold my hand like it was clay again
I wish she would put me on the old throwin’ wheel
I gave her the lock, and then she closed the door...

I can’t see those brown eyes on me again
She won’t smile on me, she might not smile at all
I left her to run and be free again,
but freedom just left me with more room to fall

I don’t know how to put myself together
When she left, she took a piece that held it all there
I was a whole person, but not anymore...

about

Bless Your Heart Asheville, North Carolina

Vigilance and Sunn Sett take cues from classic country songwriting and immerse them in the textures of shoegaze and post-rock, using this palette to reconcile southern and queer identities.
