lyrics

About called it a night when he walked my way
He said, "I'll buy you a drink, but my mom's gonna' pay."
There aren't enough notches in my belt
To keep my pants on
But if you though you had a chance
You thought wrong

You wanna' treat me like your baby girl
But you don't know my name
You wanna' keep it on the down low
But I cannot be contained
You don't deserve to see me standing here
Let alone in lace

I said, "You can call me dusk,
But Dawn is my name."
He asked, "What's the difference?"
One you have to tame
He said, "I love my wife."
In a tongue of bad faith
I told him she can watch
And we can call it a date

You can be discreet
But you've shown your face
I know your type
I won't play your games
You hide in the shadows in a cold embrace
But I am not the same

You wanna' treat me like your baby girl
But you don't know my name
You wanna' keep it on the down low
But I cannot be contained
You don't deserve to see me standing here
Let alone in lace

Crutch
by King and Queen of the Losers

I used to be in another band, and we played a few shows with King and Queen. They blew my mind and are one of the bands that inspired me to pursue music. Also check out their album American Squalor. Over My Dead Name

No Dogs Allowed
by Sidney Gish

Sidney has such an amazing voice. I love her lyrics and word play. This is one of the first albums I came across on BC and it remains one of my favorites. Not But For You, Bunny is such a cool track. Over My Dead Name
