about

“Cherry Splits” was first conceived during the 'IV' sessions, then re-written while working on the next album, right after the Japan tour in ’23. It didn't feel right to put on either release, but we didn't want it to slip away either. Still, we hope some of you enjoy it. Recorded in the debilitatingly hot Texas summer of '23.

lyrics

How do we split
How do we fit
How do we delicately burn
Remember so so long ago
Remember when we used to float
Purity feigned close but I let it all go

Eyes
Can’t be your eyes
You see my disguise
In your eyes I see my disguise
You’re so delicate when you break my skull
You’re so delicate when you shred my soul

We should be off the charts now
You’re covered in your disguise
but I can see your ocean eyes
The ceiling in my head
The disappointment instead
Why am I so obsessed this time

Little divorcees
Little paper turnkeys
Is that all we get to be
Mediocre silhouettes
You’re so delicate when you break my soul
I can’t resist
