lyrics

In the half light I see shapes against the wall
They remind me of times I once knew
Try to forget and leave those memories behind
To harden and not look in your eyes

Because everything that pulls us apart
Is a weight on my shoulders and a kick to my heart
The burden I feel seems to be all mine
Washed your hands of it
Left me to live with both our lives

Drinking to forget is sometimes
Better than forgetting to drink at all

In the morning I'll regret all of this
No matter how natural it feels when we kiss
How did we get here? How did it come to this?
When every word feels like the greatest and the worst thing at the same time

Just because I can't bring myself to cry
Doesn't mean I'm not dying inside

So I'll drown it
Its the only thing that works
I'll drown it
Gives me something else to regret
I'll kill it
Its the way that I was taught
But I have to live with it
And deal with this alone
It was always gonna be like this

Drinking to forget is sometimes
Better than forgetting to drink at all.

about

The Dead Anyways Bromley, UK

The Dead Anyways are four friends from South East London. We play a kind of fast paced agitated pop punk with influences coming from all over the greater punk spectrum.
