lyrics
Anya
Anya, I knew your eyes before I ever saw your face.
They were like a black cloud lightning, thundering from a mile away. I knew I could weather the storm whether or not it would break, cause I knew on the other side it could be such a beautiful, blue day.
Cause I believe in the good in all of us and knowing we can make it all right.
I concede that I’m an idiot doing my best for all of those alive.
So why do you want to die?
Why do you throw it all behind?
Cause late at night when the moon is full, you look so beautiful, Anya
I believe that I have seen the best in you. It was quick, just a glimpse, but I caught it and I know you saw me too. The warmest of springs surrounded by the tallest, sharpest, steepest mountains. I want to take my fists and break and beat everyone down, that is
I believe in the good in all of us and knowing we can make it all right.
I concede, that I’m an idiot doing my best for all of those alive.
So why do you want to die?
Why do you throw it all behind?
Cause even now the moon’s at half, I swear I just heard you laugh, Anya.
Even with a blade so sharp, I don’t think you’ve got the heart
Even with a blade so strong, baby, I believe you’re wrong.
I believe in the good in all of us and knowing we can make it all right.
I concede, that I’m an Idiot believing in the best of all of those alive.
So, why did you have to die?
Why did you throw it all behind?
Cause even now the moon is gone, I just had a thought of you, Anya.

I love everything this band does. Catchy dissonance with fantastic dynamics and a spit in your eye attitude, balanced by great melodies and playful rhythms. Subpar Co-Star
