lyrics

Your troubled thoughts boil in your grey eyes
Don’t think I don’t notice, don’t think I don’t recognise
You’re so deep in yourself that you can’t hold me when I try to reach you
Head down like you expect me to beat you

I can’t stand it when you don’t trust me
I can’t stand it when you don’t trust me
After all that I tried it’s frustrating to be, still, on the outside of you

When you’ve got someone to hold you, when there’s fear in your heart,
When you pull yourself apart, I could be anyone at all
When you fall to pieces it’s not me you’re looking for
I’m just a door in a wall that doesn’t keep out the cold
I’m so tired

I can’t stand it when you don’t trust me
I can’t stand it when you don’t trust me
After all that I tried it’s frustrating to be, still, on the outside of you

Wasp Summer Berlin, Germany

After five years in Berlin, Europe’s grimy,
sleepless City of Fun, Wasp Summer makes
rock that is both agitated and dreamlike, offering grinding bass and taut drums
with spare, spaced-out guitar and
adventurous voice. The songs talk about resilience
and breaking with the past. ... more
