The Horror of Riovanes by Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate)

Here is our new jam from our 4-way split on Count Your Lucky Stars with Annabel, Joie De Vivre, and the Reptilian! You can hear everything we’ve done here: http://empireempire.bandcamp.com/

And here are the lyrics:

you spoke with a nervous tick that betrayed control
i know! i counted the times you touched your fingers to your throat
(seventeen)

that night, at sara holden’s going away party, you were as pale as a ghost (ivory white)

i think it weighed on you that you weren’t leaving
or maybe, how you were so afraid that you would never go

so you will carry all this weight home
(when all of your fears came true)

  I can’t stress how good this song is. Keith sings the last line with so much beard.
