You were blinded over the edge,
I threw my whole guard down
Whispered baby,
Will you take me for all that I am?
I’ve got a lot to learn from
You‘ve got some years on me
My body’s younger
Speaking of bodies,
Have you ever seen one dead?
Come back
I’ve been waiting for you
Come back home
I’ve been waiting for you
Come back home
It figures, I'm the mean one
But don't you love me?
For who I am?
Not who you want me to be?
I’m just tryin’ to feel free
Come back
I’ve been waiting for you
Come back home
I’ve been waiting for you
Come back home

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
Dirtbag Transformation: "What is this?" was my first reaction. But what an amazing song. It reminds me a bit of the Pixies in how it pulls together dissonance and then resolves. malfunction54
