8 Ball

From Out in the Storm2017

Written by Katie Crutchfield

Produced by John Agnello, Katie Crutchfield

Lyrics

8 Ball

Hey I'll go away You let me take my own damn car To Brooklyn, NY, USA I'll dream Embarrassing reverie I'm all detached feeling like myself I'll drink too much, I'll cause a big scene And I'll breathe I don't care who sees I'll be nobody I'll be the wind blowing through the leaves When I fall I will not be ashamed at all You'll see a failure You wanna brand my losing streak You wanna be the 8 ball Why I curiously catch your eye The blood that's keeping it alive Is the illusion of the limelight Manhood The tragically misunderstood And you will bury the bad blood I am remiss I am bodiless output What you see It could not possibly be me I'm your diversion I am the wind blowing down your tree It's plain I lit the groundwork up in flames We watch the smoke rise You wanna name my weakness You wanna be the rain

Waxahatchee on Dork

Waxahatchee has shared a new single, 'Mud', taken from her 'Tigers Blood' sessions

The new track is from her Grammy-nominated album sessions, ahead of European and UK summer tour dates.

Waxahatchee has confirmed some UK tour dates for June 2025

The run culminates in a headline show at London's Hammersmith Apollo.

Waxahatchee has shared a new single, 'Much Ado About Nothing'

The track follows her recent album 'Tigers Blood'.

Waxahatchee: "I spend so much time thinking about how different I am that I don't ever really think about how I'm the same"

Examining her 30s with the help of a few new pals, Waxahatchee has come roaring back with an assured new album that’s brimming with confidence.
