Lyrics

Nostalgia

We stepped up, we stepped down The replacement is found And the ______ falls around And around and around Hesitate and panic When you look in his eye The regret of your eyes Of your eyes, of your eyes Memories (Step up) Of better days (One step in time) Poor as dirt, but Free as a bird Memories (Step down) Of yesterday (One step in time) Pure as water And innocent Professor, assessor Confessor, caresser ___________ You give up And cannot comprehend all the things ________________ In your heart, in your head On the tip of your tongue Of your tongue, of your tongue All you know What you are What you know All you are __________ __________ Give in Give in Give in Give in Your life Your life Your life Money Money Money Money Money Money Money

From Dork

Cursive on Dork

Cursive - Devourer

'Devourer' is a knotty, visceral listen.

No genre, no problem: Cursive's decades-long musical defiance

For nearly 30 years, Tim Kasher and co. have challenged genre conventions, keeping Cursive's sound fiercely unpredictable.

Cursive: "When I'm wagging the finger at others, I'm also wagging the finger at myself"

Indie-rock stalwarts Cursive are back with their first album in six years. With society falling apart around us, it's a suitably vitriolic reaction to the state of the world.

Cursive - Vitriola

‘Vitriola’ bubbles and boils with anger and simmers with regret and futility.
