lyrics

I was falling for you right when you broke it off
Now it won't go away I can't make it stop
I went too far too quick but I thought you'd catch up
Now I can't stop wondering if I could have been enough

Misanthrope
But I let you in
Death by hope
You didn't promise me anything

The older I get the harder it is to believe
I might still be the girl of someone's dreams
Feels like there's still a thread running from your heart to mine
But I don't want loose threads I just want close ties

I miss you
Come find me
I'm not hiding
So it should be easy

Told you things I'd never say sober
Wish I could ask when you were coming over
But it's never going to happen again
No I don't want to be your friend

It's Hard to Find a Friend
by Pedro the Lion

I have loved this record since it first made it's way into my life, and tried to emulate some of the sound and feel of tracks like Bad Diary Days on crushing/crushed. BUCKO

A Record
by Laura Stevenson

Laura Stevenson's voice is out of this world and this record is an incredible mix of sombre and sunny. I definitely borrowed from some of the techniques and sounds on tracks like Amphibian BUCKO

Sleepwalker
by Long Beard

This Long Beard record is just utterly beautiful, and feels like floating. I have listened to it a lot and the dreamy textures never get tired, I just love it. BUCKO

Find Yourself Alone
by Keeskea

supported by 5 fans who also own “Death By Hope”

A beautiful, almost glacially-stilled EP of gentle, poignant songs. Keeskea commands attention through the calm confidence that that can only come from being at peace with one's vulnerability. These are carefully crafted songs, in which subtle acoustic instrumentations frame the vocal harmonies. The production is crisply spacious, and the effect is one of lingering tranquility. I hope a full album isn't far away. Highly recommended. Michael Mueller
