VERSE
She was a woman small and dark
Fire burning in her heart, desire
She was a canvas of Autumn marks
Crimson, brown and scarred, a painting
Lovers in darkness, fight in light
And hide it in plain sight, she whispered
And she falls to the abyss he made
And his hand is stayed by her tears
CHORUS
Broken, cracked, defiled and stained
It's clear and plain that
No-one, deserves the pain
Darling you've got to get away
VERSE
Break your bones and lose your head
Cut the ropes and leave the nest
And she falls and she falls to the arms of the street
Falls in line with the other heaps
Swathed in boxes, shaking need
Racks her body the need to feed in the corner
And he finds her nursing her bones
He looks after her 'cause he's all that she knows
A slow drip of Tropicália-infused psychedelia from New Orleans rock outfit Blue Basin: balmy one moment, aggressive the next. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 22, 2022
Combining crooned murder ballads with raw, angsty hard rock hooks, Melbourne's The Ugly Kings are a wrecking crew well worth watching. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 15, 2021
