Someday when I am growing old,
and my whole disposition's cold,
I'll remember the bitter days,
and hope to see them in different ways.
And as I'm lying there in bed,
with all these thoughts going through my head,
will I sit in disbelief,
or find a moment of relief?
Is this the beginning
or maybe just the ending
of everything we want?
A simple little answer,
and everlasting answer,
that will forever haunt me?
Do I need the answers,
do I seek the answers,
to a world that I don't know?
Or will I let my knowledge grow?
Sour words escape from me,
float down the stream into the sea,
the sea is black from love it did lack,
and now I'm all alone.
And as I sit under the shade,
and wait for all of this to fade,
how I'll hope that it will crack,
so I don't ever have to look back.
Is this the beginning
or maybe just the ending
of everything we want?
A simple little answer,
and everlasting answer,
that will forever haunt me?
Do I need the answers,
do I seek the answers,
to a world that I don't know?
Or will I let my knowledge grow?
Oh lordy, do I play this game?
Or do I dismiss it in shame?
I'm left here baffled and confused;
left here alone and refused.
Is this the beginning
or maybe just the ending
of everything we want?
A simple little answer,
and everlasting answer,
that will forever haunt me?
Do I need the answers,
do I seek the answers,
to a world that I don't know?
Or will I let my knowledge grow?

This band has a crazy story to tell and a wall of sound that evokes such passion that your head may explode. If you like pedal driven shoegaze / dream-pop, this band is perfect for you. Katy Needs A Life
One of my favorite bands from the Kalamazoo local scene. Heavily influenced by bands like Weezer and Pavement, they bring an amazing edge to the genre of music I grew up listening to. Katy Needs A Life
Everything is wonderful about this music / musician. You'll never feel so happy as you do when listening to Jes Kramer from Grand Rapids. Katy Needs A Life
A new album of perfect low-key gems from Kim Weldin of Tape Waves' unassuming bedroom pop side project Shiny Times. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 15, 2019
