lyrics

Behold the glorious anchor
that pulled us all down to the pavement
You got lost and came back a savior
forgetting the rules of engagement

I left the light on
I thought you knew

Can’t stop from being this anxious
Some world that I try to escape from
You look at me like a stranger
not trying to make my acquaintance

I’ve tried to see it through
Our time has come now
I thought you knew

I’ve tried to see it through
The time is ours now
I thought you knew

about

Earth Girls Chicago, Illinois

"Earth Girls makes garage-pop that’s so densely packed it’s almost easy to lose the complexity of the arrangements, but that’s exactly what [makes it] work. It may be bubblegum pop, but its flavors don’t fade after first listen." -AV Club
