Day Away

How did
I let it stand
So long?
So long
Truly now I know
It’s slight every time
Forever drawing line, my threshold

Knee deep in
Some holy mystery
It marbled good and bad
I was never sure
Or surgical
To tease the strands apart

But they’ve come apart
Useful unravel
Won’t try stitch it up

When it salts
Two wounds
Never worth the bother
For a while, it healed one
And I could wash the other
Now it comes along and wakes them both up
I’m turning around
Between both, wide eyed
And when it comes it picks them apart
The plasters, off
Now I wake alone, not wondering why
I ache, at least I know
There’s no economy
To this anymore
Despite the feeling of healing I had
Trouble’s only a day away
With him I know the trouble is only a day away
With him I know the trouble is only a day away

The reeling is only a day away
Bread break on me, mmm, for me
Mmm, pray
Pray me, my boy
Or stay me alone?
For I am prone
To pray in love as a favor
Be a charity job
For I have grown wrong
This is all I can know
Culture love as a mould
On only saviours, and bare bones
He graces me what I deserve
I am lucky for it
But it doesn’t faze him at all
It doesn’t weight him at all
It doesn’t mark him at all
Doesn’t even
Doesn’t even
Doesn’t faze him at all
Give me back a semblance of self
I’m bare
Truly in tatters, boiling over, teenage
And it doesn’t faze him at all
Who are you to win wars?
Who are you to say?
Who are you to question it?
Who are you to say that
It doesn’t faze him at all?
That it doesn’t bother him at all?
That nothing caves in him at all?
How can you know sitting by your window?
By staring at things?
Ooh by your window
But the feelings still coming on
It doesn’t faze him at all
It doesn’t faze him at all
It doesn’t faze him at all
It doesn’t faze him at all

Day Away

Club Cringe 10th Anniversary Show on Montez Press Radio

Theia - Frat Boyz (Baby Zionov Flip)

📝 Friends to the end IXXF and Catnapp stomp onto the dancefloor as the best dressed pair in the club, yelling over the microphone on this song about digital friendships. Best described as hyperpunk, the beat carrying "1MF" takes a sauntering pace, comfortably supporting the energetic vocals by booming and crashing methodically. Bearing their teeth on the cover art, IXXF and Catnapp are eager to scare away the fake friends accumulated through social media. Take a look at the music video where the two taunt their following on an Instagram Live stream, with both clothing and CGI flourishes designed by Ksti Hu.

LYRICS:

1 million friends
I got I got 1 million friends
I got 1 million friends
Don't know any of them
I got I got

There's no one that is lookin like me
There's no one that is lookin like you
There's no one that will look up to me
There's no one that will look up to you

1 million friends
I got I got 1 million friends
I got 1 million friends
Don't know any of them
I got I got

I like my friends so much
I like everything about them and they like me back
I love my friends I swear
They see everything about me but they never there

When you see me at the bar
Don't get angry if I don't know who you are
What is it, John or James?
I got 1 million friends but I don't know their names

There's no one that is lookin like me
There's no one as lonely as me
So far away from home
I got 1 million friends and I'm always alone

1 million friends
I got I got 1 million friends
I got 1 million friends
Don't know any of them
I got I got
