about

"I was sort of messing around with the levers on my harp, trying to find a new key that was out of my comfort zone and fell into these chords that I really liked. Then the band brought a new dimension to the song, adding some catchier melodies and drum beats. At this time I was dragging my harp around town on the bus all the time; it was literally a weight on my shoulder which I wanted to link with regrets and other confusing feelings that were weighing me down. " - Emilie Kahn

lyrics

-- Lyrics --

We were both born in a godless time
When I’d want nothing more than to know you’re mine
We played all the right notes, but it came out all wrong
But the music still plays
It goes on and on and on

Well I followed the signs, but I’ve learned nothing yet
Now my shoulder’s weighed down from brass and regret
Wishing you could undo the hurt
Ain’t easy as re-buttoning your shirt

Like a child you run and hide
And heartlessly you change your mind
Loveless far as I can see
Heartlessly put the blame all on me

So I packed up my love, put it back in it’s case
Shoulders weighed down from pine and mistakes
Wishing I could undo the hurt
Ain’t easy as lifting my skirt

Like a child you run and hide
And heartlessly you change your mind
Loveless far as I can see
Heartlessly put the blame all on me

Now your chops are so sore from trying to explain
You don’t love me no more, well there’s no one to blame
But you’re to blame
