lyrics

Walking to the river where you used to feed the birds and fish
You've grown braver Now you are gone with your ancient dreams

Trapped in your eyes, can't look back straight to the crystal balls
Trapped in my lies till now

Was it wind or water?
I saw a figure in blur, I knew it's so familiar
Tried to say something worthwhile,
but no words came out

Mistrusted realities when I failed to keep away the bees
"Don't you never lie, child. Lie to yourself, but don't tell lies to me"

Trapped in your eyes, can't look back straight to the crystal balls
Trapped in my lies, from that day

Was it wind or water?
I felt a touch on my cheek
that made me feel I'm so week
Tried to say something worthwhile,
but no words came out

'60s surf and '90s indie mesh nicely in a fuzzy distortion that is Say Sue Me. Very chill. Makes me want to go to the beach. Strike that, it makes me want to go to Busan and catch one of their gigs! The cover of Genius (김일두)'s One Question is great! Jeremy
