lyrics

Brood about, sing aloud
These things take forever
Pick the scrap from the ground
But not like “now or never”
We’ll choose where to begin
And if we can’t decide we’ll
Wipe out this town

Raise the bar, highlight your scars
Wear them upside down and
Hold your head way too high
The ceiling’s now the ground
Should all pain be forgot
At least we had the pleasure
Pleasure’s all mine

Hideout
‘cause when you lost your mind
You said goodbye
To all around

Anything, anyhow
Anyway you want it
The thaw is here, are you running out
Of leisure, awe and wonder?
How will we get along?
The less we know the better
We own this town

What’s it now, fourth time around?
I’m full on automatic
What’s it for? i don’t recall
There you go, i said it
Sympathize, don’t hold your breath
‘cause you don’t miss your water
’til the well runs dry

Hideout
‘cause once you lost your way
Got put off your stride
By everything around

The curtain it’s falling well don’t feel sorry for the ruined party your plans will always be thwarted by relentless forces so you might as well look for some sort of

Hideout
‘cause when you lost your mind
You said goodbye
To all around

The Wends represent a new chapter for the Turin, Italy band with the short-lived name of "Smile". The new name reshapes the identity in more obscure and nervous songs that shift from jangly arpeggios to sharper post-punk guitars, and from a melodic singing to shouted, more expressive vocals. ... more
