lyrics
the bandwidth is throttled
the battery’s drained
The audio’s clipping
game canceled due to rain
it’s time to panic
it’s time to flood
it’s time to give up now
’cause now is no good
(chorus)
I’ve got nothing to fight with
and nowhere to flee
I can’t run from the problem
the problem is me
I hate this dumb couch
and I hate slowly breathing
I hate staying here all day alone
and I also hate leaving
there’s no digging upward
from a bottomless pit
there’s no moving forward
till we get out of it
(chorus)
it’s ok to keep crying
through a terrible night
there is total darkness
until there is light
it’s a bad situation
with no shortcuts or tricks
there don’t have to be reasons
I don’t need to be fixed
I’ve got nothing to fight with
And nowhere to flee
I’m trapped in this problem,
but only for now
people care about me
people care about me
the battery’s drained
The audio’s clipping
game canceled due to rain
it’s time to panic
it’s time to flood
it’s time to give up now
’cause now is no good
(chorus)
I’ve got nothing to fight with
and nowhere to flee
I can’t run from the problem
the problem is me
I hate this dumb couch
and I hate slowly breathing
I hate staying here all day alone
and I also hate leaving
there’s no digging upward
from a bottomless pit
there’s no moving forward
till we get out of it
(chorus)
it’s ok to keep crying
through a terrible night
there is total darkness
until there is light
it’s a bad situation
with no shortcuts or tricks
there don’t have to be reasons
I don’t need to be fixed
I’ve got nothing to fight with
And nowhere to flee
I’m trapped in this problem,
but only for now
people care about me
people care about me

Standing Stones is one of the best albums I have ever listened to. Every song on it is excellent, and some are just some of the best songs I’ve heard. I can’t even pick a favorite song between Bones, Independence, Hope, Vespers... really all of them. Just listen to it. Thank you for releasing this incredible album.
