lyrics

You know it’s a lie
So just let it die
Nothing new’s gonna fall from the sky

So end it and run
And pick up your gun
You’ll need it to fight them one by one

You know better
Break the fetters now
So when you’re eighty
You won’t be afraid of me

Bust out of jail
And rip off the nails
Throw all your dead over the rail

It’s about time
That you cut the line
You’ve got no business drowning here

You know better
Break the fetters now
So when you’re eighty
You won’t be afraid of me

I knew a man
Who used to sing in an old band
By the shore
For the drinks and the ladies

But then one day
He couldn’t say how it happened
His head was gray
And his songs were buried in daisies

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).
