I’ve been so tired
Do you know why?
Could you read my mind? 
The truth’s been hard to chew 
That if it’s not you
Then our end is soon 

I know that if ever I fall
They’ll never mean as much as you 
I’d talk but the words feel too tall 
And I’ve never felt that much in me
I could love you better, better 
No, I would love you better, better 

With time, will it pass me by?
Just a glint in the eye
A tale shared like wine
Is it true
That to love you bruise?
And that’s what you choose
How does that feel good? 

I know that if ever I fall
They’ll never mean as much as you 
I’d talk but the words feel too tall
And I’ve never had that much in me
I know that if ever I fall 
They’ll never mean as much as you 
I’d talk but the words feel too tall 
Guess I've never seen that much in me 

I know that if ever I fall
They’ll never mean as much as you
I’d talk but the words feel too tall 
And I’ve never felt that much in me 
I could love you better, better
No, I would love you better

I Could Love You Better

"Grog" LP Out Nov 17th: bit.ly/FrogGrogInfoPage

New York duo Frog (brothers Danny & Steve Bateman) return with their fifth album “Grog.” This collection of gorgeous Indie Americana is full of the nostalgia, hope, defeat and lust that earned previous singles “Judy Garland” and “You Know I’m Down” several million streams on Spotify.

Eclectic and wildly creative, this fully realized LP veers from the gorgeous grooving funk of “Black on Black on Black” to the classic pop of “Maybelline” before “New Ro” exemplifies the “gothic and cartoonish” characteristics that songwriter Daniel Bateman describes his latest work with.

“Grog” will be released both CD and digitally on November 17th and launched with a performance at YoFi Fest 11 (Yonkers, NY) which accompanies a screening of their “Kings of Blah” documentary.

Artist Quote:

“There are really exciting places we were able to get to on this record, places that I didn’t know existed before I found them. It feels both gothic and cartoonish to me, big gargoyles, dark skies, storms, but the statues are of ‘Aaahh!!! Real Monsters.’ Every song is a step deeper into the abyss.” - Daniel Bateman (Frog)

Previous Support: NPR / BBC Radio 1 / BBC 6 Music / TLOBF / CLASH / Gold Flake Paint / London In Stereo / DIY Mag / Various Small Flames / IMPOSE / Cereal & Sounds / For the Rabbits

Spotify Stats: 9.5 million streams / 78k monthly listeners (Oct 16th 2023)

Press Quotes:

“I was taken aback by its apparent simplicity; a simplicity that at first masked a wealth of subtle nuances, wry homages, and nostalgic narratives that were enough to make listeners lament growing up anywhere other than suburban America.” – The Line of Best Fit

“Locked between the unstoppable force of self-deprecation and the immovable object of the American Dream.” – Various Small Flames

“A subtle, stunning triumph.” – For the Rabbits

“Utterly brilliant...they make you nostalgic for memories you never had and take you back to places you’ve never before been.” - London in Stereo
