Ten fingers
two ears ring
five of those fingers hold everything
how can they reach the sky? (reach the sky)
Before they even fly? (even fly)
I don’t know
but I can’t stop watching them
born so different
hanging shins
different mothers same sins
Time to let them go (let them go)
to where they’ll really show (really show)
their face to another place
We’ve lost another in two weeks
then we sit here in captivity
But why do they go? (do they go)
No one really knows (really knows)
but hey, that ain’t nothing new
Oh ain't it such a thing
to be everything in the nothing
but I wait, but I wait for a while
for a coin, for a drink, or a smile
when you’re ready, when you're ready
let me know
let me know
what it is you want
Heartfelt without being cloying and playful while delving below the surface, the lo-fi indie of Metagirl embraces chaos and contradiction. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 7, 2023
