lyrics

Up until that very moment
I always saw myself as
a solo
distant
sad sad man

Up until that very moment
A lost sound cried out
for comfort
for confidence
unending care

Up until that very moment
I’d never wait another minute
til you walked in
alluring grace
a bright shiny light

Up until that very moment
passed on reading that book
till you leaned in
and said aloud
a secret skill

gotta read it like prose
a kiss
a bite
a scratch

86 paces laid out
that’s what gets me home
an empty home, boxes and
crates drawing breath

48 paces laid out
that’s what gets you to
a new life
new shelter
new walls to climb

12 paces laid out
tied in a box
and this is
a love song
tied up in a box

6 paces laid out
right on my back
warm vibration
an anxious purr
welcomes the day

feels like it’s feeding time
a kiss
a bite
a scratch

stuck at the top of
the same damn city
tickets stuck in the purse

night is fading
scoop you up
enjoy this moment

night is fading you’re in hiding
this is the last chance

a satellite to oneself
a kiss
a bite
a scratch

we built a territory
for our hearts

we built
a territory
for our home

Coriky
by Coriky

supported by 14 fans who also own “Lil Bit”

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!! smiledozer
