lyrics

I sat on the steps and did cry
Then and I can't tell you why
I said a prayer to the lord
"Oh, God, please send my little kitty-cat back home"
I always felt so alone
I was anxiety-prone
I didn't know what to do
Oh, my God, what the hell is the matter with me?

Fader
Bringer of death
Circle closer
Reach out and let me make warmer
Hands that are colder than ice
Love me
Leave me be
I am so empty
Open your eyes, can you see me?
Or am I as I feel on the
Opposite side of my skin

Leave me
Feed me to wolves
I don't want to
Be my my my
My own soldier
I have no hope for the future
I cannot fight anymore

Hold me
Let me not be my own tulpa
Feed me your sweet bread and butter
Lay me down under your covers

Wake me when the winter's come and gone
When the winter's come and gone
When the winter has come and gone

Wake me when the winter's come and gone
When the winter's come and gone
When the winter's come and

Feed me the heart of a perfect woman
Feed me the heart of another one
Bring me the head of a perfect stranger

Feed me the heart of a perfect woman
Feed me the heart of another one
Feed me the heart of a perfect woman
Feed me the heart of another one
Of us

I feel empty dried up and used
I don't know what I should do
Nothing feels like how it should
Could it all have been nothing more than a dream?

Wake me when the winter's come and gone
When the winter's come and gone

This album's just really good dude. It's packed to the brim with personality and love in both the album and the record itself. The songs are all really catchy and cute, and have this weird sense of whimsy that both contradicts, yet adds to the sad and sometimes dark lyrics. I don't really get the same vibe from any other bands or albums, so April Fools has always had a place in my heart. I recommend this album to virtually everyone I talk to with an interest in bedroom pop. jomapumapu
