lyrics
At night when I sleep
I dream the weight is lighter.
And at night when I wake,
I set myself on fire.
The way they stay:
Blonde locks on a chance to sleep.
The way they stay:
Blonde locks on a chance to dream.
The day doesn’t wait like the night, and my sun don’t shine so bright.
My sins paid in blood-red-black moonlight.
A green dress. White bed.
Hands pressed. Repressed.
And your face:
Ablaze, in the dark of a night-time craze.
The day doesn’t wait like the night, and my sun don’t shine so bright.
My sins paid in blood-red-black moonlight.
In the morning on my knees for sunlight to blind reality.
Hands clasped on my head.
I’ll pray this way until the end.
I dream the weight is lighter.
And at night when I wake,
I set myself on fire.
The way they stay:
Blonde locks on a chance to sleep.
The way they stay:
Blonde locks on a chance to dream.
The day doesn’t wait like the night, and my sun don’t shine so bright.
My sins paid in blood-red-black moonlight.
A green dress. White bed.
Hands pressed. Repressed.
And your face:
Ablaze, in the dark of a night-time craze.
The day doesn’t wait like the night, and my sun don’t shine so bright.
My sins paid in blood-red-black moonlight.
In the morning on my knees for sunlight to blind reality.
Hands clasped on my head.
I’ll pray this way until the end.

Springtime and Blind
by Fiddleheadsupported by 43 fans who also own “The Light of Sun”
A friend with a reliably fine musical taste posted this album on FB and I wasn't disappointed. Love the guitar sound and the passionate vocals (melodic enough to not pass as screamo or whatever). Punk rock spirit yet with a lot of dynamics (definitely a yes to the Dischord reference) and compact songs that won't leave your head for a long time. Many many great tunes on here but for the moment USMA and Lay Low have to be my favorites! Great band, very happy to have found them!
