Track Lyrics

Surface Envy Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Throw me a rope, give me a leg
I haven't seen daylight in what must be days
I took the long way down, lost track of myself
Confidence fell down the steepest of slopes
But if you get me a line, lend me an oar
I'll row you an ocean, I could do more
I feel so much stronger now that you're here
We've got so much to do, let me make that clear
[Chorus]
We win, we lose
Only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose
Only together do we make the rules
[Verse 2]
I'm breaking the surface, tasting the air
Reaching for things that I could never before
The anchor is heavy, I can't hold the weight
The guilt holds me down, won't let me be myself
Suck it all in, suck it all up
Let go of thoughts that are holding me back
I push twice as hard towards it you see
And the past falls away to the bottom of the deep
[Chorus]
We win, we lose
Only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose
Only together do we make the rules
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
We win, we lose
Only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose
Only together do we make the rules
[Outro]
When we leave say goodbye to your old way of life
I can breathe way up high, now it’s our turn to fly

Bury Our Friends Lyrics

[Verse 1: Corin Tucker]
Today I am stitched, I am sewn
Patch me up, I've got want in my bones
Like some doll you thought you could throw away
I found my legs
[Verse 2: Carrie Brownstein]
Ready to climb out from under concrete
Only I get to be sickened by me
My body a smudge
Can't make out the details
Want to start over and come into being
[Chorus: Tucker & Brownstein]
Exhume our idols and bury our friends
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
We're sick with worry
These nerve less days
We live on dread in our own gilded age
[Verse 3: Tucker]
This dark world is precious to me
My scars make me breathe in so deep
My body has no need for sleep
This time around
[Verse 4: Brownstein]
Ready to find fragments of stillness
Only I get to be punished by me
Your voice is a crumb, it leads me from the wildness
Wanna start over, forget everything
[Chorus]
Exhume our idols and bury our friends
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
We're sick with worry
These nerve less days
We live on dread in our own gilded age
[Bridge: Brownstein]
Make me a headline
I wanna be that bold
Make me a spotlight
So I can see the gold
Make me a headline
I wanna feel that bold
Make me a spotlight
So I can see the gold
[Chorus]
Exhume our idols, bury our friends
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
We're sick with worry
These nerve less days
We live on dread in our own gilded age
[Outro: Tucker & Brownstein]
We speak in circles
We dance in code
Untame and hungry
On fire in the cold
Exhume our idols and bury our friends
We're wild and weary but we won't give in
