lyrics

the freeway divided our hearts and the neighborhood changed
the radio speaks of a love that can take away pain
I'm faraway falling asleep to the sounds of the sea
I'm thinking of you, wondering if you think about me
and love isn't something to hold in the crux of your arms
I'd turn all my days on their head just to keep you from harm
remember that time when we danced in your mother's backyard?
I wanna go back to that place but you make it so hard

It wasn't our dream but we played along
we followed the rules, but then things went wrong

meanwhile, back in the city it feels good to be lost
there's freedom in being alone, but it comes with a cost
the subway is keeping me safe from original sin
the sunlight is opening doors and I'm stumbling in
the freeway divided our hearts and the neighborhood changed
the radio speaks of a love that can take away pain
I'm faraway falling asleep to the sounds of the sea
I'm thinking of you, wondering if you think about me

head underwater and heavy heart
we keep it together to fall apart

it wasn't our dream but we played along
we followed the rules, but then things went wrong
and I can remember why we should stay
so head underwater and heavy heart
we keep it together to fall apart
our senses unravel and fly away

See You Bye
by Mitten

Mitten's excellent debut EP. Smart electro-pop from Brooklyn that will stick with you, like your best friend. beat radio

Post-Empire
by Will Stratton

Will Stratton's new LP is one of my faves of 2012. This one unfolds slowly, and majestically. RIYL: Nick Drake, Red House Painters, and the lighter/more melancholy side of Nada Surf. beat radio
