Opener Lyrics by Hookworms

Microshift

2018

It's fine to fail
We all will fail
I want you to know I don't judge you
If you're still feelin' frail

I'm scared you'll break
I know you wouldn't tell me
We both know it's unhealthy
And we're
Still not open anyway

We can't fail to see
What we can't have lost
What we can't have lost
What we can't
Oh, we can't fail to see
What we can't have lost
What we can't have lost
What we can't

Oh, this feeling hardly picks up
A smothered, slow existence
I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't last the distance

It's hard to find a better word
You can powder coat your shortcomings
Repress them till they're
Hidden from the world
Or just let it all out
[Don't fall under]
Just let it all out
[Don't fall under]
Please let it all out
[Don't fall under]

Consider though
Danny was right
We can help each other

Consider though
Maybe he's right
In league we see in colour
We can help each other
In league we see in colour

And I'm always looking for a way to reach out
While I'm dreaming of a way out
Always looking for a sense to not doubt I'm feeling
This freshwater river

We can't fail to see
What we can't have lost
