Lyrics

Violet

Lipstick smears Afterparties, your hand in my mouth I love how sweetly you smother me Violet, you're mine Violet, you're mine Violet, you're mine What doesn't last will get remembered What doesn't last is good to miss What doesn't last gets stuck in your mouth What doesn't last gets swallowed whole Boys' retreat Back from summer I dream of your kiss I love how sweetly you fall for this Violet, you're mine Violet, you're mine Violet, you're mine What doesn't last will get remembered And what doesn't last is good to miss What doesn't last gets stuck in your mouth What doesn't last gets swallowed whole What doesn't last will get remembered And what doesn't last is good to miss What doesn't last gets stuck in your mouth What doesn't last gets swallowed whole I love how sweetly you smother me I love how sweetly you smother me

The Districts: "We usually go mad in the studio and make a lot of noise"

Anxiety, frustration and "a lot of real life" - The Districts' new album is born from an unsettled time.
