Bucky Based on this track, I am super excited for this album. Has just the right amount of sludgy riffs polished with melodic post-punk vocals and grunge rooted tone.

lyrics

I’d like to know
when you’re out there on your own
and you cast your eyes back home
am I in black and white or color?

do you know?
when you left me there alone
I came away from it too old?
and you don’t like the way I am now
yes, I’ve grown

and like the liar radio
your mind creates a status quo
and I’m the non-stop news
I am the enemy, the enemy, I know!
and like the tv on the wall
your mind creates a static crawl
and I’m the non-stop news
I am the enemy, the enemy, I know!

I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY

where are we now?
do we give up and disavow?
or tunnel through the shit somehow?
I think I’m moving on and living this out loud

I’m still alive!
I lived to tell and have some pride
your suffering can not be mine
no, not this time

and like the liar radio
your mind creates a status quo
and I’m the non-stop news
I am the enemy, the enemy, I know!
and like the tv on the wall
your mind creates a static crawl
and I’m the non-stop news
I am the enemy, the enemy, I know!

I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
I’M NOT YOUR ENEMY
