your eyes were always shining bright~
remember how we used to fight~
on those hazy summer nights
things just never felt quite right
making out in your backyard~
growing up is always hard~
lying underneath the stars
will time heal my broken heart?
there’s nothing left but afterglow~
(I’m) having trouble letting go~
photographs from years ago
I really wish that I’d said no
why’d you have to leave me here?
It’s been almost a year
why’d you have to leave me here?
drown my sorrows in another beer
your name is always on my lips
ashes on my fingertips
I can’t forget your perfect hips
fears about relationships
I wish you hadn’t gone away
bickering in early May
I tried and tried to make you stay
I couldn’t last another day
there’s nothing left but afterglow~
(I’m) having trouble letting go~
photographs from years ago
I really wish that I’d said no
why’d you have to leave me here?
It’s been almost a year
why’d you have to leave me here?
drown my sorrows in another beer
The terrific new record from Nyxy Nyx recalls the best of the early ’90s—slow-moving, shoegaze-adjacent songs with woozy melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 11, 2022
