lyrics

Why did I go and say so much
I find it hard to gauge
When enough’s enough
Like a bull in a china shop
I’m stumbling around in the dark
Why did I go and say so much

And now you’re gonna go all quiet
And hold your cards to your chest
Just a little bit tighter
And my thoughts they’ll go round and around
And you won’t dare to make a sound
Now you’re gonna go all quiet

But I never meant to make you hurt
If I could I would eat my words
And I never meant to make you sad
If I could I would take it all back

I guess its just the way I was raised
When you didn’t understand you had to find a way
We always had to drag things out
Shed a little light on doubt
I guess its just the way I was raised

Oh but I know it isn’t how you grew
You had to keep it to yourself
If you knew what was good for you
But you don’t need to do that now
You could try to let it out somehow
But I know it isn’t how you grew

And I never meant to go so far
Now you’re driving off in your car
And I’m looking at your red tail lights
Wondering if you’re gonna come back tonight

With their blend of playfulness and graduate-level instrumentation, Dorcha deftly prove that improvisational zeal and conservatory-level precision aren't mutually exclusive. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 16, 2020
