i first fell in love with Holcombe Waller, when i saw the video for 'bored of memory'. it was stunning.
Oh my love | Oh my one and only light of hope that turns to me | I never dreamed you would die so far away | All the history, all the wars | The ever distant dangers frightening us | All return to us, the bold forgetful senders | And that's all, and that's all I need | Bored of memory the man said | Let me trade the future for a war nobody understands | And that's all I need | Bored of memory the book said | Leave me to my T.V., I am history, never been read | If I'm your lover, if I'm your friend | If I'm the protest laying down for you | All you have to do is lay yourself beside me | If I'm the Roman, if I'm the fighter | If I'm the puppet dangling here for you | All you have to do is put your hand inside me | And that's all, and that's all I need | Bored of memory the man said | Let me trade the future for a war nobody understands | And that's all I need | Bored of memory the book said | Leave me to my T.V., I am history, never been read | And that's all I need | Bored of memory the queen | Ordered up the moat bridge, never been kissed | Never been seen | And that's all I need | Bored of memory the book said | Leave me to my T.V., I am history, never been read | You can leave me to my T.V., I am history | Never been read | You can leave me to my T.V. | I am history | Never been read
the aesthetic of this entire video reminded me of falling in love.
The bar closed and the whole day went | Not much to your liking | Fresh rain on the beer-green glass | Broken where you're biking | A dark cloud over your bed | You're so sad that you just might die | But the sun will still rise | The sun will still rise | Now don't laugh 'cause I just might be | The soft curve in your hardline | There's no doubt that you are mine, babe | There's no doubt that you are mine | You act so shy | But you know you're pretty | You act like there's no one left | Alive in the whole city | Well maybe the end is upon you | And what then? | Here, repeat after me | It goes, I won't stop loving | I won't stop loving | You don't have to be perfect | You don't have to play well | You don't have to fix everything | All by yourself | Now don't laugh 'cause I just might be | The soft curve in your hardline | There's no doubt that you are mine, babe | There's no doubt that you are mine | Here, repeat after me, it goes | I won't stop loving | I won't stop loving | Now don't laugh 'cause I just might be | The soft curve in your hardline | There's no doubt that you are mine, babe | There's no doubt that you are mine
