La Dispute - A Letter
Title | Echo

I thought I’d try something a bit different, so my new song is heavily influenced by my love for La Dispute. Please check it out!

Lyrics:
There was an echo to my footsteps, like the hallways were alive.
Or something far too close behind me, just a fraction off my stride.
I felt a breeze roll in and kiss my skin, it whispered to me fly.
So as I reached the point of no return I fell into the sky.
There was a flash of light, a rush of blood and thoughts I had forgot.
I brushed her hair behind her ears and smiled at the years I’d lost.
Always the past tense, never future. Always missing, always lost
inside a catacomb of bed sheets, dead roses and wasted love.
Forever searching, never satisfied, a blur of sweet regret.
Not brave enough to fight the storm, but dumb enough to still get wet.
Dismissed the church that brought me up, denied the girls I actually liked
There’s just too much risk in placing my faith just to feel satisfied.
I’ve spilt my guts in drafts of poetry on love and art and sex.
I’ve given everything I have, but landed far from at my best.
There is no frame around my canvas, I bleed fast into the seams.
I am the love you lost, the friend you watched become a memory.

“I recall once on the church steps,
when I moved to kiss your chest.
How we paid such close attention
to each sweet and stuttered breath.
I should’ve stopped to paint our picture,
captured honest pure affection.
Just to document the difference
between attraction and connection”
- Nine.
Title | Nine, La Dispute
Love this version!
I’ve been using last.fm for exactly a year today and I’ve managed to get 5 different artists to 1000+ plays.
Ignoring the other 313 artists I’ve listened to in the last year I’ve clocked roughly 383 hours between just these 5 artists. I regret nothing.
5 minutes till La Dispute come on stage at Download
and I’m not there :’(
I wish I could afford to get down to London
for La Dispute, Title Fight, Make Do & Mend and Into it, Over it.
Why only one UK date!? :’(
only everything below ♪
both butterflies and dragonflies have wings like when you sing
I swear you hit two different notes but they don’t harmonize as clean as
when you speak there is a rhythm in the scraping of your tongue along your teeth
that comes across as well as hell inside of heaven in a feast of flies
and anything with wings that tries to sing but where you ripped two different holes,
see, they won’t cauterize as cleanly as you think and if you listen to the rhythm
in your sleep you can hear me speaking, “you are a wolf to me.”
I got a bit carried away listening to Brand New this week…
My La Dispute crewneck arrived this morning :D
