lyrics

THE MAGNOLIAS DON’T KNOW
AND THE LIGHT STILL FLOODS THE BEDROOM FLOOR
AND THERE IS A STRANGE CALM
LIKE A BLUE DISSOLVING IN THE BACK OF MY SKULL

AND SOMETIMES IT WHIRS
BUT EVEN WHEN IT DOES, I’M SURE

THAT I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO SAY ANYMORE
AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT I CAN DO
BUT I DON’T WANNA BE ANYWHERE BUT HERE WITH YOU

AND BABY, WHEN IT’S OVER AND IT FEELS LIKE
LIKE ALL THE STARS WERE BOMBED OUT OF THE SKY TONIGHT
IT’S ‘CAUSE THEY WERE

SO, WE’RE ALL SPACED OUT WITH OUR HEADS SPINNING AROUND
LAYING LOW
BUT IT CAN’T LAST FOREVER AND THAT GETS ME THROUGH
AND TAKES ME WHERE I NEED TO GO

AND SOMETIMES IT BLURS
BUT EVEN WHEN IT DOES, I’M SURE

I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO SAY ANYMORE
AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT I CAN DO
BUT I DON’T WANNA BE ANYWHERE BUT HERE WITH YOU

AND BABY, WHEN IT’S OVER AND IT FEELS LIKE
ALL THE STARS WERE BOMBED OUT OF THE SKY TONIGHT
IT’S ‘CAUSE THEY WERE

Dog City
by Matt Mays

supported by 6 fans who also own “The Magnolias Don't Know”

Normally a concept rock album about dogs shouldn't work. It couldn't possibly work. This one does. Brilliant writing, beautiful music. Matt's emotion and feelings shine through on tracks like Talking to the Sky and I Wanna Be Your Dog. I mean, it is about dogs, right? Isn't it? Or is it... rob.cee

Under The Surface
by Nameless Ghost

The Boy With Pearls For Eyes
by Ollie Cook

Killer tunes from teen indie rocker Ollie Cook, who has an ear for a smart riff and an eye for sharply imagistic observation. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 23, 2022

Why You Wanna Leave, Runaway Queen?
by Lisa LeBlanc

supported by 4 fans who also own “The Magnolias Don't Know”

This album is on heavy rotation in my house. LeBlanc's lyrics make me smile and the banjo rendition of Ace of Spades is a cherry on top of this masterpiece. awetz583
