lyrics

And so the story goes, "I told you,
Boy, I'm not like them"
Everybody can collect me,
Trade me for some bread

Every time I think I might be,
More than I pretend
So, you calm me,
Babe, I'm ready
Take me as your friend

I'm your calm, collected arm,
You cut me off at hand
Under fun and northern skies you,
Wave me off from land

There I wait, the dead employer,
Standing in the sand
Lonely saviour, holy author,
Meet me when you can

about

The Room Upstairs London, UK

Since forming in 2014, The Room Upstairs have become album-era hanger-on-ers, decorating themselves in retro-tinged melodies and folk-rock lyricisms. They muse on mortality, nostalgia, the passage of time, and emotional life crises (quarter, mid, or just normal "ran-out-of-milk" stuff). That said, they also wrote this biography, so maybe listen and debate the bias.
