about

"Sweet Alibis" is a reckoning with reality, appreciating the positive and rejecting the negative, particularly when it comes to places full of creative American dreams and convoluted relationships. Essentially, it's a break up song with the last city i lived in.

lyrics

oh lovers & lies, comfort & cries
anxiety squeeze in your endless sunshine
lovers & lies, angelic cries
reinvention in your sweet alibis

unmourned ghosts chased us here
to ocean lip & sunset kiss
all their warnings we seldom hear
in tinsel vistas dreamy grip

we prove importance by association
fame & fortune assumed destination
masking fear cellophane conversation
hollow eyes silently say

lovers & lies, comfort & cries
anxiety squeeze in your endless sunshine
lovers & lies, angelic cries
reinvention in your sweet alibis

we prove importance by association
fame & fortune assumed destination
masking fear cellophane conversation
hollow eyes silently say

lovers & lies, comfort & cries
anxiety squeeze in your endless sunshine
lovers & lies, angelic cries
reinvention in your sweet alibis
reinvention in your sweet alibis
