oh man i am beyond late to the trc music party but i come offering the band radical face - the entire discography could probably fit this series t b h, but in particular: 'always gold' is a good solid ronsey song, 'west' for noah (and his tragic decay), and 'holy branches' is perfect for adam, i love them so much
ohhh man… i checked these out and the atmosphere is So real….
always gold: We were tight knit boys / Brothers in more than name / You would kill for me / And knew that I’d do the same. … We were opposites at birth / I was steady as a hammer / No one worried ‘cause they knew just where I’d be / And they said you were the crooked kind / And that you’d never have no worth / But you were always gold to me.
west: There’s too much time for idle minds / Imagination’s armed with hooks and knives / We count our fears to pass the time / Tired or not, don’t close your eyes
holy branches: When you were young / You’d bite your tongue / Calm, always did what you were told / Never ran your mouth / Lived life on tiptoes. … But everybody’s bones are just holy branches / Cast from trees to cut patterns in the world / And in time we find some shelter, / Spill our leaves, and then sleep in the earth / And when there we’ll belong / 'Cause the earth don’t give a damn if you’re lost
