lyrics
Verse 1:
Fell asleep on Saturday
Said to you dear "I'm not awake"
If this day should pass my way
I'd beg of you stop
Diggin' trenches round my brain
I can't bear to be alone again
Chorus:
I honestly believe
Momentum breaks my heart
So turn your guns on me
I was doomed right from the start
Verse 2:
Tried so hard to set things right
A victim born of frail delights
If your tears won't quell my fears
I'd beg of you stop
Diggin' trenches round my brain
I can't bear to be alone again
Chorus:
I honestly believe
Momentum breaks my heart
So turn your guns on me
I was doomed right from the start
I honestly believe
A fly could crush my heart
So draw a bead on me
I was doomed right from the start
Outro:
I honestly believe
This war was lost for me
I honestly believe
I could go home for free
Fell asleep on Saturday
Said to you dear "I'm not awake"
If this day should pass my way
I'd beg of you stop
Diggin' trenches round my brain
I can't bear to be alone again
Chorus:
I honestly believe
Momentum breaks my heart
So turn your guns on me
I was doomed right from the start
Verse 2:
Tried so hard to set things right
A victim born of frail delights
If your tears won't quell my fears
I'd beg of you stop
Diggin' trenches round my brain
I can't bear to be alone again
Chorus:
I honestly believe
Momentum breaks my heart
So turn your guns on me
I was doomed right from the start
I honestly believe
A fly could crush my heart
So draw a bead on me
I was doomed right from the start
Outro:
I honestly believe
This war was lost for me
I honestly believe
I could go home for free

Yesterday is a Distant Dream
by OJ LawAn all-in-one-man-band in the most exemplary sense. Imagine the production chops of Dave Fridmann with the songwriting and vocal mettle of Prince-meets-Buddy Holly-meets-Brian Wilson.

Our favourite new act of the year. Superb song-writing. Exceedingly charming and lovely to a fault. Very excited to see where they go from here.

This time she has drums & bass, and all the better for it. Lo-fi bedroom pop with a couple of nice instrumentals.
