lyrics

Blame it on the fall, suspended embryonically
It's never quite the same, you'll have to come and lift it up
But is memory reserved for those that it has worn apart
You'll have to go away, you’ll have to come and lift it up
You know where you were born, know where you'll be torn apart
One second of your mind, one fleeting moment in your thoughts
Is all that I can save

Punctured on a rail, chin lit up from underneath
Handed over keys, then the house got torn apart
Cancelled all your cards, found a suitor, wasn’t keen
Crushed him for a start, to finding lines hid underneath
You finally got out, tore the pockets from our jeans
Where has she gone now, this commentary’s flattering
You'll have to go away

You can have my name
It's been burning a hole
Chooses clothes that will outlast
His skin and what’s in
You want to be
Looking at, not looking on

Sit in sleep-creased clothes, only played it in the dark
Or your club, Monday night, all she had to talk about
Admit it, you were green, different four walls every night
Pass her as you leave, know that line adjusts in time
Is memory reserved for those that it has worn apart
You’ll have to go away, you’ll have to come and lift it up
You finally got out, tore the pockets from our jeans
Where has she gone now, your commentary’s faltering

Empty Pools Bristol, UK

Empty Pools formed in the halcyon days of fading summer 2011. They artfully combine elements of noise-rock with teen dream melodies, late ’70s CBGB's angularity and the jazzy, world-pop sophistication of the Thrill Jockey set.
