Slow-Core 04:20
I look up to the sky and it's raining from the heavens I look down at my phone and it's a quarter to eleven and there's too much noise in the distance I hope I'm not raising your suspicions but I probably am an you probably can see what I'm doing and what I'm after My heartbeats slowing down because of you and then you look at me, straight in the eyes Then you use that word that I despise I can't stand it anymore My hearts on the sleeve that I wore So now my hearts in your hands I can't stand it anymore the rains soaked the clothes that we wore Looking after you could become a chore but I'll do it if you let me

In a damp dark room in the centre of the city I scratch these words on a pen in a pad of yellow sticky paper I found on your floor while everyone lay still around me I don't think you like me You don't know the half of it And I can't get over that look that you gave me Like asking me why I'm here with your eyes and I can't get over that look that you gave me Like I'm the only one who understands your long awkward sighs Angry, aggressive, misunderstood sighs

Les Pretend 05:01
Walking through the winter streets I think of the paces we used to meet and this town is a blanket all wrapped up in snow So I think of the places that you don't know about So I find myself here In this dark dark street and there you are Hiding from where we used to meet And you're reading a book that I gave you and you're wearing a coat I got When I was 17 And I walk down and hold your hand and I tell you about my band and you act like it's just the same but we'll both grow tired of these games but for now you're... and you're playing the records I play and you're saying the things I say

She said she liked his manners She said she liked his hair and he hoped she sat up late at night wishing that he cared cause that's what he does... And it looks just like October but really it's July and he walks and talks and breathes and sit but he covers his eyes when he cries and that's what she does Everyone's scared of one another and I'm scared of what you do to me

Trail 05:50
I had a dream there was a show, at the funeral home and it finished way past dark So we walked through the night, through the glass floor to find our way to the light By the garage off in the distance we met you and I didn't know what to do I saw you through the eye of the telescope lens and at the guitar when I was playing my guitar I feel so guilty. Wrapped in deep in these romantic situations in my dreams. And then your friends mother offered to drive us home I just saw it as a chance to get you alone but our friends sat in-between us cause your friend had taken a shine to mine but on the drive home you slipped your foot across to mine and we locked eyes As my friend dropped his best lines I wish I had mine but actions speak louder

Cusack 04:50
My brother asked me what I'd do, If you came and said "I offer me to you" He should know by now that's not my style In the long run I just probably won't react Avoid the obvious, Just stay at the back But I'll tell you, if it comes to it. I know what I/'ll do! We'll stay up late. Watching films. We'll stay up late. and maybe I'll make you a mixtape. That sounds like me. My friend made a joke about me, and you I just got nervous, didn't know what to do. It's time like this I wish I had some class, some style. So I could get out of situations like this. She's figured it out. Come on! Say anything?!

Six 04:02
We met through a mutual friend, but a mutual friend decided we should end we met on a computer screen, but we all know a pipedream when we see one We met in the dark corridors of our childhood, but you introduced me to her when I saw you were no good But I picked the girl from the dark, rainy, city streets. Oh in this life it's strange who you meet. And you? I met you, in-between it all. Somewhere. Somewhere, I'm not sure where. Six Holes. Six holes. Six holes in my heart. One more and I'll fall apart. And I come grazing by your window, play Neil Young till we die and we can walk the streets of the capital and when you sing my heart cries. I've lost count of all the memories, I'll need to make new ones... I'll probably make them with you, in this town with it's favourite sons. What a day to be wearing converse. I'm sick of this digital wall. What a day, are you trying to avoid me? We'll dance until we fall, I thought this was it Oh it's strange in thus life who we meet. Sit back, have a little drink, forget this feat.

about

Lovers Turn to Monsters Glasgow, UK

Lovers Turn to Monsters is a long pale man, slowly falling into middle age.

He wishes he could be one of those guys who tours all the time, but he likes baths far too much. So instead he stays in his room and makes lengthy albums of emotive lo-fi nonsense. ... more
