Told me you were fine every night
They said that you were dead and that's alright
I stay awake at night to hear you cry
I told them I was fine but they don't buy
And I don't want
to see you around
Cause you seem like
You don't wanna try
And I know how
You're starting to feel
So leave me alone
I will see you cry and I won't try
To help and calm you down cause you just lied
I don't believe a word that you cry
Remember I was there when no one cared
And I don't want
to see you around
Cause you seem like
You don't wanna try
And I know how
You're starting to feel
So leave me alone
And I will hear you cry every night
You wish that I will care but I just won't
I hate when you attemp to yell and fight
They said that you were dead and that's alright
I'm a sucker for lyrics. This song is a beautiful sadness to end a summer with. I love every track on this album but this one is comfortable to me, for better or worse. It captures a feeling I think unfortunately most of us have felt. Surf Curse's whole sound reminds me of loss and no more so then here. logansaxby
Guitars so jagged you could cut yourself on them and sneering spoken/sung lyrics make “Red Dirt” a post-punk powerhouse. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 3, 2023
