Lyrics

Ava House

Ava are you trying to get high? I hope the floor holds this time We'll dance in subtle romance together While we're making our time While we're making our time While we make our time I saw the knife, now I'm leaning forwards Straight city light cut me down to size The bums are scheming on their Tall Boys I can hardly open my eye Ava are you trying to get high? I hope the floor holds this time We'll dance in subtle romance together While we're making our time While we're making our time While we make our time I saw the knife, now I'm leaning forwards I'm two wheels barreling down your way You can't touch us we're untouchable Lament the beginnings that we celebrate Never afraid, we're fearless together The rest, they're waiting their lives away Gold has us slurring and pissing out windows Enemies are so far away We're Alive Celebrate [2x] Ava are you trying to get high? I hope the floor holds this time We'll dance in subtle romance together While we're making our time While we're making our time While we make our time

From Dork

The Menzingers on Dork

The Menzingers have announced their new album ‘Everything I Ever Saw’ with ‘Chance Encounters’

Punk veterans return with Will Yip-produced LP led by single 'Chance Encounters'.

The Menzingers have shared a new cut from their seventh album - check out 'Try'

Their new full-length is coming very soon indeed (tomorrow).

The Menzingers: "It starts to get a little bit crazy when you try to make sense of it all"

With 'Some Of It Was True', The Menzingers trade nostalgia for a brutally honest exploration of life in the present.

The Menzingers have announced their seventh album with new single, 'Hope Is A Dangerous Little Thing'

Their new full-length is coming in October.
