the crane wives - say it (new song)

[@Catishcat]

Gods, if even half of their new songs make the cut, the next album is gonna be the best one yet. I love every new song I hear so much.

[@papayagirl5400]

Have they confirmed they are releasing a new album or is is just fan speculation?

[@yellsatyou]

@@papayagirl5400 The Well..?

[@mossfeathers]

@@papayagirl5400 They have! Not only have they posted somewhere (i think instagram?) that they've been in the recording studio, they have also spoken in the past about a new album coming out in winter (albeit referring to winter 2023-2024). As of now, no further knowledge on when it'll come out but I wouldn't be surprised if their summer tour is also going to promote the new album

[@papayagirl5400]

@@mossfeathers I really hope it come soon! I love Scars and Arcturus Beaming and really want to hear them in a studio recording!

[@ghostlyspoof]

@@mossfeathers last I heard was emilee saying that they're aiming for releasing the album this summer (june specifically) although that's just the goal, not 100% certain

[@swirly3081]

... oh. the lyrics are absolutely devastating

[@haz6908]

I love how they subtly reference their other songs. "Waiting for the axe to fall" may be a reference to The Wolf, "I am a falling axe"

[@mossfeathers]

Oh hell yeah! I have a recording of this from the concert I went to and was surprised it hadn't been uploaded anywhere (to my knowledge) yet, I can put it on loop now!

[@tiptoptrouble]

I think the line after "you held up a mirror and showed me what I've been hiding from for years" might be "was that just sleight of hand?"!

[@ranamona]

i unno, i'll add that though.

[@warriorcatkitty]

"DID THE REAL ME CORRUPT THE FANTASY?" HITS SO HARD

[@aimeeh2079]

crane wives got hands fr ;0;

[@daysytoadstool]

It´s awesome! I really hope it becomes a part of the new album, along with scars, it´s my favorite song

[@ImTheMoss]

SAME I love scars so much

[@aceofspades1.0]

I literally scream when scars comes on bro

[@Mrleanmiser]

I was able to see this live in Nashville and it was AWE INSPIRINGLY COOL

[@alexandercaskie1245]

The lyrics in the description might be a bit off, I think ‘loyal to a fault’ makes more sense than ‘to a fall’ Otherwise, thank you so much for this song!

[@ranamona]

i kinda suck at transcribing stuff, i really appreciate people who care enough to correct those silly little mistakes of mine

[@mikaasav1193]

⁠@@ranamonagive yourself more credit dude, i myself can barely understand what they’re saying so i really appreciate the lyrics

[@warriorcatkitty]

SAY IT, IF IT'S OVER SAY ITTT

[@ghostlyspoof]

lyrics: did the real me corrupt the fantasy? did I spoil the view? the build up is almost always better than getting what you want did I disappoint you? say it if it’s over say it so I can move forwards please don’t leave me in the dark praying for a wayward spark - I’m haunted by your tenderness you gave me a soft place to land you held up a mirror and showed me what I’d been hiding from for years was that just sleight of hand? say it if it’s over say it so I can move forwards please don’t leave me in the dark praying for a wayward spark say it if it’s done speak the words and I will move on you know I’m loyal to a fault I will sit here waiting for the axe to fall - if you could would you erase me? eradicate me from your mind and if we were to meet as strangers again would you let me pass you by? would you refuse to meet my eye? say it if it’s over say it so I can move forwards please don’t leave me in the dark praying for a wayward spark say it if it’s done speak the words and I will be gone you know I’m loyal to a fault I will sit here waiting I will sit here waiting waiting for the axe to fall

[@tweekfromsouppork]

FIRST LINE IS "did the real me corrupt the fantasy?" i think

[@ranamona]

sounds more like it

[@sillymeowmeow-l1u]

there are still a few unpublished songs such as "I warned you" or "disappearing woman" I hope this helps :)) (I attach links to these songs) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKPRXqaAo5aZbcU kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXWUXn2OqbyMr7c

[@scythecurie8913]

Is it would you refuse to meet my eye or you refuse to be my wife, i really like the second one in my opinion

[@ranamona]

i had originally written it to be "refuse to be my wife" but i thought "refuse to meet my eye" sounded more plausible.

[@scythecurie8913]
