In the bottomless ocean of space
there’s a drop in the lake
rain down, cover all the souls that you seek
letting them drown, letting them be weak
all the vengeance that anyone’s reaped
is not truly theirs to keep
it’s come down, the hammer that will ruin us all
leveling planes, quickening the fall
I’ll go but we don’t have to go out like that
in the memory of everyone’s fear
is a wishing to be near
from great jaws, the voices that will swallow us whole
echoes too loud, rings out of control

More feel-good indie from Brooklyn's A Great Big Pile of Leaves, all bristling guitar tones and expansive choruses. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 18, 2021
