lyrics

Just when you thought that you made it
You wake to find that you hate it
You’re holding on to illusion
You’re holding on but you’re losing
Your days are numbered in pencil
You’d better lie down and settle

Your body hurts, yeah it’s aching
Too many birthday cakes baking
You find that nothing’s worth faking
Another step can’t be taken
Nothing else matters but waking
No matter how much is taken

I thought you might like to know
The years are starting to show

And all that you’ve left behind
Is keeping you up at night

Just when you thought that you made it
You wake to find that you hate it
Your days are numbered in pencil
You’d better lie down and settle

It’s over, it’s time
It’s over, resign

You thought you’d be alright
You’d make it out alive

But you had so many plans
That slipped right through your hands

Now you got a little time
To go and make it right

about

Minor Stars Chapel Hill

Minor Stars is a psych rock trio from Chapel Hill, NC. Strong songwriting meets heavy rhythms, fuzzed-out guitars, and soaring vocals to create music that bristles with energy and refuses to stand still.

It’s stadium rock for introverts, a distinctive sound that has a “wonderful kind of brutality” (Scott Solter, producer, Superchunk, The Mountain Goats, Okkervil River).
