tragedy reel, by Fog Lake

tragedy reel

by Fog Lake

supported by

nofatclips 2nd listen: fills me with a positive anxiety, a sense of having all expectations subverted despite already knowing the record.

1st listen: being at my first Fog Lake record ever, I was not expecting this deep, intense, introspected mood that grows song after song to an almost unbearable climax! Favorite track: sullivan.

hawkeye sutherland another great release - thanks for the music, & the feelings, aaron. <3 Favorite track: latter day saint.

Dakota Sillyman Every Fog Lake album is the best album, but this one might be the best of the best. Favorite track: jitterbug.

fancy the way you let me down no one gets even in this town i've been away from so long stuck inside a whirlwind crystalline still sinking in i masqueraded so long then i saw it on a map just like jesus you'd come back like a strange mirage incarnated by the sprawl not so holy after all never learned your lesson dirty thoughts filled up my head spinning out upon your bed figure eights eternally entwined in my surmise rather sleep than suicide i've hesitated so long
2.	dakota 03:34	lyrics	buy track
speeding away south of north dakota a rockstar, guitar and a fast car cause i wouldn't wanna stay here with you but i don't wanna leave here without you made a wrong turn riding down the freeway slowed down went dark and tried to call it off cause i don't think i'll ever get the truth and i don't wanna die without knowing you you're one of the pack you're one of them i put the past away at least till i remembered again saltwater flooding out the basement i put the chance away at least till it came back again you took a drag rolling down the window pulled off and laid eyes on your mother's house can you tell me that it's all been refused tell me if there's something here to lose felt ashamed staring in the mirror you look a bit like how you always were it's different than it was back then visions of the mansion we lived in you're one of the pack you're one of them i put the past away at least till i remembered again saltwater flooding out the basement i put the chance away at least till it came back again you're calling me back i'm one of them i put the past away at least till i remembered again the things i know i don't wanna say it i put my hands away at least till it came back again and again and again and again
3.	jitterbug 03:57	lyrics	buy track
served my sentence with you coming down coming through the doors of our old high school i bit off a bit too much to chew what a weight off your mind once you know it's already over my patience got me nowhere looking down looking for better days gone on by this town lights up for nobody at night call me back call me in don't let me go out alone we got nothing to compensate i was tamed by the toll we're just going through the motions now light it up jitterbug i'm already overwhelmed don't change my mind this feeling got it coming for me laying still dressed to kill blood dripping down from the bedroom walls write it out write it in your storybook hell i'll keep my eye on you we made a big mistake ride it out ride it in those backseats with the windows down i don't mind if you win just tell me what to call this house that's caved into itself we got nothing to compensate i was tamed by the tone we're just going through the motions now light it up jitterbug i'm already overwhelmed don't change my mind don't change your mind on me
4.	latter day saint 07:48	lyrics	buy track
stayed in bed and watched the ceiling prayed to heavens up above just to think you were a widow never found again true love lost the will to live your dreaming lonely caving and resigned sit and think now another drink now it'll cross your mind latter day, latter day saint latter day, latter day saint trophy wives with christian names latter day, latter day saint we stayed sober easter sunday strung it up to cut the blood twelve apostles on the tv knew that it was all made up don't know why i got the feeling this could maybe be undone as the candles hit the curtains we watched ourselves go up latter day, latter day saint latter day, latter day saint consecrated for a day latter day, latter day saint
5.	catacombs 03:21	lyrics	buy track
signed the will in your name and i swallowed the pill that you gave to me i'd been practicing stitching your memory into something i could live without i thought you'd figure it out there's a lot of things i figured you'd know by now but i guess everybody just sold you out into something they could quiet down you see it too all the catacombs running through you something you don't say out loud if it's in me now i don't know i'll make it home but i'll try to find a way somehow if you still miss me don't you you said you wanted to die said you got a broken heart and a broken mind and no one's there to calm you down when you get too high so you do it all over again saw it written in stone all the secrets only you and your sister know i don't sleep cause i'm unsure if you're all alone or there's someone there to talk you down you see it too all the catacombs running through me something i don't say out loud if it's in you now just tell me if you're leaving and i'll try to find a way somehow to make history of you
6.	sullivan 03:56	lyrics	buy track
give me a canvas to color in these nursery rhymes i sing they all just sound the same sullivan hung on the walls of my home those painted portraits bear some resemblance to you now sullivan i never meant to go some punishment that never came the bodies you invade all outlined on pavement now sullivan the radio's static hymns and choirs of angels sing you're the talk of the town now sullivan i never meant to go cause it's all coming back now and you're all running out yet you don't see how you still like to pretend
7.	crocodile 03:46	lyrics	buy track
snow angels on sawdust sank bottles of wine the last of our teenage days you cried all the time until your heart finally went cold faded red to blue condensed the summer into poems subliminal clues lately i never find my friends to be good company they lay their crocodile tears on me you once were a martyr for your old brigade the last of your free fall days but you won't be saved sometimes i miss the way i was when you were around superstitions that got lost in oceans of sound lately i never find my friends to be good company they lay their crocodile tears on me don't lay your crocodile tears on me
8.	pity party 03:10	lyrics	buy track
we were always miserable together riled up and underneath the weather running down your face and on your sweater something i've been thinking for forever i don't think they ever understood me even wonder if you ever knew me there's a sort of solace in your misery either way it's nothing but a pity
9.	june 03:34	lyrics	buy track
oh where to begin you were the best at losing friends and reeling me in holy roller next of kin i kinda like it when you never bother me though i can see your blood slipping through the needle to tie broken veins lust could never save but i'd be careful what you're doing out there baby cause it's always over by june i've seen what it does people get off on empty love but i don't wanna get up i don't ever wanna leave this room no i kinda hate it when you never bother me though i can see the cum dripping down the needle beside broken beds this will never end so just be careful what you're doing out there baby cause it's always over by june
