I was there when they closed the doors and they wouldn't let you in no more.
I was there when they took you away and they never let you out again
Give yourself over, come a little closer
These fresh ideas are getting bolder
Don't be afraid of what I say
I'll get it out and I may shout. I may shout
Running running running running out of time
Keep it together, walking on a fine line
Measure measure measure measure your worth
Jump through the hoops, try to stay alert
There's not much in the way of service
Just play along, let them think that they've heard us
Who would ever wanna live like this
Just blank faces and zombie races
One day you're up, then it comes down
One day you're up, then it comes down
I know the truth, and the truth will set you free
but the truth can be so deadly
One day you're up, then it comes down
One day you're up, then it comes down
Then you're back in the clouds
Give yourself over, come a little closer
These fresh ideas are getting bolder
Caged like a bird, having done your duty
Having kept your word
Give give and take all that you can
Give yourself over come a little closer these fresh ideas are getting bolder.
Welsh art-rock group HMS Morris make music full of plot twists; explosive, colorful rhythms can turn into shadowy introspection on a dime. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 22, 2020
Bouncy, jangly power pop with a slash of acidic shadow, as the very best twee always has. From Boston, they met at band camp (not Bandcamp). Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 2, 2019
