lyrics

When the time comes to think you know it all
We'll be there to watch your spirits fall
Try my best not to laugh at you or what you're going through
But that's nothing new

Baby, cry, about what hurts inside
Honey, whine, it gets you off the hook this time and
You're a train wreck, an absolute deject, someone will eject you from
The mess you made all by yourself

Work your tragic magic just for us this time
Why pretend that anything is fine?
Nod and smile at those things you do
But that's nothing new
And it's deja vu...

So get in the ring
And bawl about something
that we can do to rectify

Baby, cry, about what hurts inside
Honey, whine, it gets you off the hook this time
You're a train wreck, an absolute deject,
And someone will re-eject you from the mess you made all by yourself
But that's nothing new
That's nothing new
It's killing me
I'm killing you

Dark Water is fucking amazing a post-punk fever dream of Joy Division, Wire, and that still punkish early Siouxsie/Cure sound. wdpenn

An interesting pre-Swan Wash document, Day Room foreshadows much of that band's sound (Anxiety can be seen again in Tavel's Gavel) but also holds its own very well, establishing itself as dark new wave and holding true to this throughout the album. Also, it's quite relaxing music! Porkandham

The gorgeous new single from this Belfast group has the bright, ringing guitars of C86 and the soft-focus vocals of shoegaze. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 15, 2022

Swan Wash

supported by 6 fans who also own “You Can't Cry”

Gloomy post-punk with a strong artistic identity. Excellent command of a somewhat minimalist musical approach based on a foundation of stomping drums, full-tone picked J-bass, and shimmering guitar lines. Scott's distinctive and expressive vocals are a highlight. M
