lyrics

The cost was high but now it's spent
I know that it's not right
Hard to accept that it came and went
before we could realize

That you were not prepared//It wasn't fair
You'd been obscured
But now we're hanging around your door
And we can't make a sound

There's no fighting truth.

Did you think that this was cake and balloons?
No chance you blacked out just a little too soon?
You tell me once a month at least that you're through with it
But now you're hugging the sidewalk close.

These crooked stairs, six steps in pairs
You fell down the entire flight
Let's burn this bridge— Who even cares?
Architecturally sound advice.
To watch just who you crossed was
never entertained
And now we're dancing around your
name because it feels like a grave
It's a frightening

truth

And now we'll never know why ||
You fucking did what you did
like you always do

Did you think that this was cake and balloons?
Not Nancy Reagan coming armed to the tooth
I'm not sure what my stupid face has to do with it
but you insist it's a problem and puke on the car ride home.

Mountebank Austin, Texas

Another filthy Austin-based-band cashing in our drink tokens and falling in love all too quickly.

We formed in June 2016 after having played in several other bands for years; the Hand of Fate slapped all those projects around a bit but thankfully we are way into that kind of thing.

That and biting.
