am0eba - CO-HABITUATE

About the song:

I've been a fan of odd time-signatures for as long as I've been interested in electronic music, and I often find myself falling back on some simple motif that sways back and forth when I'm looking for my muse... This one materialized one afternoon when I was able to get away from distraction. The whole thing assembled in just a couple of hours. This is the original vocal, pronunciation mistakes and all... Lyrically, not what you might think: This is about trying to communicate with my 5-year-old son.

stream a pre-release version on SoundCloud: Lyrics: Co-Habituate Listen to my words Listen to my words Fighting all day Fighting all day Don't matter what I say We're fighting all day Won't you listen to my words? So hard to say What is in play Don't know the way to approach it Fighting all day Fighting all day Must be a better way Than fighting all day Listen to my words Listen to my words Listen to my words What did you say? [Did you] mean it that way? So hard to play along with this Fighting yourself Fighting all day Listen to what we say Listen to my words Listen to my words Don't tell me what you heard Listen to my words I'll make it clear You make it stay We'll understand Move forward that way Biting my tongue No benefit done Listen to my words today
