lyrics

Another Facebook memory, not all of this again.
I feel like taking it off, just like a t-shirt
Threads, made just for me.

You’ve come a long way for views of a distance
But you can’t know something til it’s fallen,
Inside – and out of view.

But it gets closer when I remember

Words borne out of fear,
We never meant, but now they’re said
It’s all I hear
An angry bell stuck by your ear
A history you can’t clear
But now there’s nothing to say, there’s nothing left to make clear
I’m stuck here wondering why
I wish you were here.

I’m stuck pretending again

Maybe the wound has healed
It smells like roses and gold.
(Nope) it’s just the parting gift
Of an illness
New words, will make us sick again.

And it gets stronger when I
Remember

Words borne out of fear,
We never meant, but now they’re said
It’s all I hear
An angry bell stuck by your ear
A history you can’t clear
But now there’s nothing to say, there’s nothing left to make clear
I’m stuck here wondering why
I wish you were here.

I’m stuck pretending again

No closer
No stronger
No better

I’m just pretending
That you weren’t important

All our memories, forget them all
I’m just pretending that you weren’t important at all
I’ll forget you cause the truth hurts, I’m just pretending that you weren’t important
All our point of view, our plans and thoughts – I’m just pretending that you weren’t important at all

Pretending that it’s just all in my head

The acclaimed four-piece have dedicated their twenties to writing songs of love, loss and overdue rent, and this album is a wax seal on FLOWERTRUCK’s 8-year-long efforts inside Australia’s independent rock scene.
