lyrics

Four a.m. and I’m stuck with a memory traced
Twenty pings a minute but seclusion is starting to take
Inhale, repeat, let’s choke on the mess
Calling all scars, starting all fires, talking until there’s nothing left
Six a.m. the best part of me is fleeing the scene
Empty, guts ripped from a living machine
Exhale, repeat, so I don’t have to think
Gimme eighteen more years and I swear I won’t hear a thing

Say yes to where the pain is
Share a crooked first dance for the ages
Vow this is not a failure
Toast the massacre

Free me, spilling blood so I’m upright
See me, blue eyes on the inside
And it’s making me sick
Dragging cold feet to the dirt in the daylight

One black spot’s not what you readily fix
Misery pairs well with a seventy-six.
Drink up, repeat, let’s start at the end
I can move past all of this, but not to your extent
One more dream that I can’t imitate
One buried scream before I detonate
Glass down, repeat, let’s end at the start
We can’t move past all of this and I guess I sang my part

Say yes and put me where you want to
Lock the door cause I don’t know how to let go
Vow this is what you wanted
When we’re distorted

Free me, spilling blood so I’m upright
See me, blue eyes on the inside
And it’s making me sick
Dragging cold feet to the dirt in the daylight
Save me, champagne for the farewell
Play me, a dark march till I get well
But it’s making me sick
Dragging my feet to the sun when I’m in hell

Free me, spilling blood so I’m upright
See me, blue eyes on the inside
And it’s making me sick
Dragging cold feet to the dirt in the daylight
Save me, champagne for the farewell
Play me, a dark march till I get well
But it’s making me sick
Dragging my feet to the sun when I’m in

Call Me Malcolm image

Call Me Malcolm England, UK

Razor-toothed, harmony infused, delicately ferocious ska. British 5-piece Call Me Malcolm exploded onto the Ska Punk scene in 2018 with a record described by ska legends Less Than Jake as "a saving grace of the genre." Malcolm's genre blending mastery and intricate songwriting has since crafted “some of the most special, unique, ambitious music in the punk underground.” (BrooklynVegan) ... more
