lyrics
I’m gonna stay in tonight
Everything is moving I need to take a little time
I’m searching for some sweet relief
I need a breather, maybe I should take a back seat
Everything is easy, trying to believe
That if I let go, of the control
Maybe I would feel it
I am trying to keep it quiet
Got nothing to shout about, I’m listening, trying
To find ways to keep it all together
Don’t always want to engage, step away from all the pressure
Everything is easy
Trying to believe if I stop pushing, no plans
Get it out of my hands
It could be so easy, let it come to me
If I let go of the control
Maybe I would feel something
I am uninspired, easily tired, I need time alone
I wanna disconnect, yeah keep my distance
Trying to tell myself that it’s ok
Everything is easy, I’m trying to believe
That if I let go of the control, maybe I will feel it
What if it was easy, let it come to me
If I’m not pushing, no plans, leave it out of my hands
Everything is easy, let go and release
Surrender all of my control, but I keep hanging on and on and on
Everything is easy, I’m trying to believe
That if I let go of the control, maybe I will feel it
If I let go of the control
I gotta let go of the control
Let go of the control

Combining the raw edge of punk with the driving force of rock, South shouts unapologetically over chaotic guitar riffs and
charging rhythms to themes of capitalism, feminism, privilege, and the power of community. With influences ranging from Grinderman and IDLES to Sharon Van Etten, the band go from from urgent hooks to unyielding power....more
