lyrics

I feel a cold itch
Tears in my own stitch
A blemish of mine

So, I try to escape it
I stay out late with
Anyone who doesn’t mind

Now, tell me
Who is that calling on the phone?
Well, I fear that I already know…

I don’t know when the night will be over
Baby, I’m afraid to check the time
And I know I’m afraid to come home sober
Baby, I’m afraid of my mind

Your text makes my hands sweat
Ribcage soaking wet
With thick blood in my chest

You call it “anointing”
What’s more disappointing
The cage in my head

I don’t know when the night will be over
Baby, I’m afraid to check the time
And I know I’m afraid to come home sober
Baby, I’m afraid all the time

about

Common Fires Kelowna, British Columbia

Described as having “[melodies] akin to Ben Howard or Bon Iver’s rawest moments”, and as having both “the serene qualities of singer-songwriter music [and] the abstract tendencies of prog”, Common Fires is equal parts ambitious and moving.
