Who’s pushing who?
Who’s hurting who?
Bruise on bruise
Who’s blaming who?
Who’s shaming who?
Bruise on bruise
A broken frame, a perfect pain,
Ain't no way to live
And I’m not in hate with you
But something’s gotta give
Things break all the time
Bones and family ties
Hearts don’t heal themselves
Hope can blur the lines
Cut truth razor fine
and we can’t see through
Who’s choosing who?
Who’s losing who?
Bruise on bruise
Who’s the enemy--
is it my memory?
Bruise on bruise
`
Was I your first mistake?
I did what you asked me to
So these are the last words
That I’m gonna waste you.
… .pushing who?
….hurting who?
Bruise on bruise
…blaming who?
…shaming who?

Last Lullaby

I’ve got eyes for you, my prize, it’s true
Dear don’t depart, I’ll do my part
Forever now, be still your heart
And be with me eternally
While you sleep, will you keep
All the love I placed in you?
Precious eyes, so cold they’re blue
Be with me eternally
I’ve got ice for you, my price, it’s true
Dear don’t depart, I’ll do my part
Forever now, be still your heart
And be with me eternally

Standing There

Standing there in early light
Friends are near but out of sight
A brilliant fake, you were the talk
Swimming in diamonds
and now you’re on the rocks
For a moment in time
You lit up the night with your gold halo
But now you’re in the dark
Out in the cold
No entourage to call you god
Now they’re just your firing squad
Standing there in early light
An angry angel
Looking for a fight

“The Big One Is Coming,” the wise guys shout
But the drones drone on our phones and it wears me down
Not alone, not alone . . .
And when the crash comes, then it won’t take long
To cull through the cruel ones from who belongs
Not alone, not alone . . .

Hey, bombardier, when will you stop?
Will you find your place down there, down there in the world?
Claim the ones you disowned down deep in the earth?
Will you find what it’s worth?
Hey, bombardier, your center can’t hold
There’s nothing but space up there, desert air
and a moon-dust god
Some father you are, fed your kid to the wolves
You will never be pure
You can come and get your debt down here, is where I’ll be
Remembering how you were

Pretty Sure

Pretty sure that I was doing fine before you came along
and said that I
Was born in blood and tried by fire and now
I’m pretty sure that I’m the one who’s right
Pretty sure that I was on the mend before you turned up
and blew out the flame
With your stillborn mind and holy-rolling eyes
I’m pretty sure that there was no one else to blame

Sub Lights New York, New York
The New York City duo Sub Lights launched their indie electronic psych-pop project out of the bedroom and onto the stage in the fall of 2021. After a lot of late nights, early mornings, variously enhanced psychic explorations, along with heavy doses of political consciousness, “Medicine,” emerged as a definitive musical statement—equal parts song-driven and sonically expansive. ... more
