Tears 05:05
lyrics

TEARS Leaves are turning falling burning Days turn colder weather bolder Darkness falls fast - lingers long past Morning haze fills murky days This is when - your absence sinks in Empty space where you had once been Fill it up with cheap whisky Radio talkshows and junk tv Clouds move slowly across the sky Casting shadows as they drift by They drop their tears into my eyes They drop their tears into my eyes They drop their tears into my eyes Rays of light breaking through the fog I walk the streets like a straying dog Looking downward to avoid the stares From the couples I see everywhere This is when - your absence sinks in Empty space where you had once been Fill it up with cheap whisky Radio talkshows and junk tv Clouds move slowly across the sky Casting shadows as they drift by They drop their tears into my eyes They drop their tears into my eyes They drop their tears into my eyes This is when - your absence sinks in Empty space where you had once been All it takes is a sunny day To dry the tears that I wipe away Clouds move slowly across the sky Casting shadows as they drift by They drop their tears into my eyes They drop their tears into my eyes They drop their tears into my eyes

Snakes and Ladders 03:15

SNAKES AND LADDERS Pushing against time Pushing against hate Pushing hard against a world Blinded to its fate I put a ladder in my pocket So I can rise above It’s there I hear John Lennons words “All you need is love” Its a tight rope that Im walking Precarious at best I don't know what I don't know But some know even less I keep a ladder in my pocket So I can rise above But if I fall please catch me All I need is love Lets build a bridge between us That spans this planet’s mass Together we can rise above Give peace and love a chance I put a ladder in your pocket So you can rise above Come up here and join me All you need is love I put a ladder in our pockets So we can rise above Come up here and join us All we need is love

Waiting For You 04:53

WAITING FOR YOU What if I dropped my heart Into the ocean What if I buried it deep under the sand The only way out was to fall into darkness The only way in was to hold on to your hand Then suddenly there’s this antidote for loneliness A change in the way that I fit into my world I waded through many and waited and wondered And all of this time I was waiting for you All of this time I was waiting for you Love starts like a whisper that calls so gentle and sweet Prevailing like the rising tide each time we meet I want you so much I’m busting at the seams The rightness of you brings a rightness in me Then suddenly there’s this antidote for loneliness A change in the way that I fit into my world I waded through many andwaited and wondered And all of this time I waswaiting for you All of this time I was waiting for you What if I dropped my heart into the ocean Would you lift it like a child and hold it in your arms What if I buried it deep into the sand Would you help me dig it out and hold on to my hand Then suddenly there’s this antidote for loneliness A change in the way that I fit into my world I waded through many andwaited and wondered And all of this time I waswaiting for you All of this time I was waiting for you

KING TIDE usurp me please Take control Im on my knees Take my soul stand away love me less you cant stay I transgress Im Like a king tide full to brimming Sometimes drowning Sometimes swimming Dance the dance Take the lead Theres a chance No guarantee Hit the brakes Stop the car Trouble awaits You’ve gone to far I get to the end and Find the beginning Sometimes losing Sometimes winning Make your move Make it now Like a cat On the prowl This is my dirge Listen up My urge to converge Its all fucked up I get to the end and Find the beginning Sometimes losing Sometimes winning

WALK THE WALK Walk the walk Don’t Talk the talk repeat You say everything I wanna hear My head gets muddledevery time your near Oxytocin overload it rules my brain Every time we part ya know its such a strain Walk the walk Don’t Talk the talk repeat You’re making promises that you cant keep I don’t stop you cause I wanna believe..but We both know that is never gonna last oh oh oh The truth is plain and soon you’ll be my past Walk the walk Don’t Talk the talk repeat Yesterday you loved me and you held me close Today I said I needed you and then you froze tomorrow’s in the pipeline but the writings on the wall Your’e setting me down gently but Imheaded for a fall And you are still making promises that you cant keep Now Im gonna stop you cause your heart is on your sleeve and we both know its over but you keep on hanging on oh oh oh Its over and I need you to be gone. Walk the walk Don’t Talk the talk repeat

Say Goodbye 05:49
lyrics

SAY GOODYBYE Stretching out in front of me Black bitumen is all I see A lonely road to a lonely place A persistent memory of your face I clutch the wheel, I clutch my heart I stop the car to fall apart I wasn't ready for this to end To say goodbye to you my friend Say goodbye, (repeat) So this is how it ends Of this pain I must attest Now that you are laid to rest You suffer no more and thus relief Although I struggle with disbelief How do I live without you near I’m overwhelmed with pain and fear My life has fallen into disarray The future feels bleaker every day Say goodbye, (repeat) So this is how it ends Without you I’m completely broken A head full of thoughts forever unspoken The hope that someday I’ll see you again It’s all I have from here on in. Perhaps its possible to keep you near By coveting memories like souvenirs I close my eyes and conjure the past Lets hope these memories are made to last Say goodbye, (repeat) So this is how it ends

about

Raw, vulnerable stories of love, loss and hope round out this emotionally-charged release from CRUMBE, a well-loved surf/indie outfit with a whole lot of heart.

Fronted by LA-born singer/songwriter and guitarist Connie Ogan.
Connie started playing music in 1970s California before moving to Australia in 1979. Her sound salutes Patti Smith, Neil Young, Siouxie and the Banshees and P.J Harvey with a raw B52s-style groove, and a healthy dose of the post-punk grit that has characterised Melbourne’s live music scene for the past decade.\Connie started performing her original tunes with bassist Kurt Mottershead
in 2018, later adding Scotty Bairdle on drums and Owen Eales on lead guitar.
The band brings Connie’s twangy, love-washed tunes to life and quickly
earned a formidable cult following. Crumbe’s ready-to-roll debut EP delivers the decade-drifting, foot stomping sound this outfit have become famous for.
