Lyrics:

I lost my callouses for you, and you didn’t even think to ask me how my day was, now I’m leaving.
I couldn’t even count the number of times that I let you in and I made myself small, even though I smiled throughout it all.

When I look back, I can see myself slipping down.

Heaven knows, heaven knows I tried. Heaven knows I tried tonight.

I know it’s not your fault you were born with a spoon in your throat, and a gun in your hand, and a plan for yourself. I’m not grieving.
It’s just a matter of time and a matter of worth, and you’ve known since birth what you like, and I’m happy for you until my face is blue.

When I look back, I can see myself so clear. When I look back, I can see myself slipping down.

Tonight will be the night (heaven knows).
Tonight will be the night (heaven knows I tried).
Tonight will be the night (heaven knows I tried tonight).

Lyrics:

One of these nights I’m gunna see you dance again.
One of these nights I’m gunna feel your arms again. 
 
This is not the time or place for us.
 
One of these nights I’m gunna hear your song again.
One of these nights I’m going to be your friend.
 
It’s not the time or place for us, but you said that you would save some space for us.
 
Even though we tried to make it work, it doesn’t.
Even though each time it only hurts for a moment.
 
It’s not the time or place for us, even though we tried to make it work.
 
It’s not the time or place for us, but you said that you would save some space for us.

Not The Time

SASAMI (Sasami Ashworth) has been making music in the Los Angeles area, in almost every way you can, for the last decade. From playing French horn in orchestras and studios and playing keys, bass, and guitar in local rock bands (Dirt Dress, Cherry Glazerr), to contributing vocals/string/horn arrangements to studio albums (Vagabon, Curtis Harding, Wild Nothing, Hand Habits, etc.) and producing on tracks for other respected artists (Soko), she has gained a reputation as an all-around musical badass.

After graduating from the Eastman School of Music in 2012, SASAMI spent her time scoring and making orchestral arrangements for films, commercials and studio albums, as well as being a deeply committed music teacher in Los Angeles. She spent the previous two and a half years touring the world non-stop playing synths in the band Cherry Glazerr and is now taking a turn to focus on her own music. SASAMI's first ever self-released single "Callous" was given Pitchfork's "Best New Track," and this year she has already shared bills with the likes of Japanese Breakfast, Liz Phair, The Breeders, and Blondie.
