lyrics

Was the winds of winter
Things should've ended
I waited in the twilight
You came into my life
You boosted my ego
An endorphin overflow
We both were looking good then
Never mind the bigger sin
All the people that were hurt
But no one said a word
You were my little secret
I was your biggest mistake

Big mistake
Your big mistake
Your big mistake
Your big mistake

But you sucked me in
It was all a lie
(your big mistake)
I thought we had a future shining bright
Your big mistake

Your big mistake
Your big mistake
When it ended it was a relief
It was all a big mistake

Your big mistake
Your big mistake
Your big mistake
Your big mistake

Your big mistake
Your big mistake
Your big mistake
Your big mistake

up to here

Big Mistake

lyrics

You're so pretty the birds are singing
The sun is out but I, I can't catch a feeling
Feeling
I went to your show, the people were laughing
The people were clapping, you were crying
I couldn't catch a feeling

Oh Lord, Where do I go?
When I have no emotions?
I can't, I can't catch it
I can't catch a feeling
Can't catch a feeling

A plane went down in the middle of town
Killed a vet who was begging for change as a clown
I can't catch a feeling
I don't do drugs and I'm gluten free
But that don't stop people from gossiping about me
Can't catch a feeling 

Oh Lord, Where do I go?
Where do I go now?
When I can't find emotion?
When I can't get all upset, or happy, or glad, or sad?

I just can't, I just can't catch a feeling
I search, can't catch a feeling

I search
I search...

sponj is two people and a drum machine. Formed in Chicago in the winter of 2023 by long-time friends, the band is made of a material-driven designer by trade, building beats that make us move, paired with the poetic vocals of a multimedia artist.

Using minimalist, potent synths and drums, and driven to make textured compositions that don’t need to change to stay interesting, the songs combine restraint with deep emotiveness. The vocals are a collage of keen reflections and eaves-droppings gathered from experience, which tell stories of relative truth, humor, and all kinds of love.

sponj cites influences from many places and times, from 80’s Prog Rock and Pop, through 90’s Hip-Hop, to 00’s Ambient and Post-Wave. There is a connection to the past and unique present that makes sponj feel transportive yet familiar.

Epcot, a moody, cinematic, dancy, melodic, glo-fi dream-dive, is the debut album releasing in early 2024.
