about
"Ampersand" emanates late 90s nostalgia and sweet melancholia (think Emily Haines meets Mercury Rev) with its hypnotic verses and lush single chorus. Submerged in feelings of uncertainty and the looming "what-ifs" that often linger after the fall of a significant relationship, Trends’ tender yet commanding arrangement tells a story of unrequited affection and missed chances.
lyrics
I don't know where I'll go
Because you told me so
Before I get cold
Before I get old again
She said you're dead
You're gone
Beneath me
Buried
And she left
You're gone so long
She said you're dead
You're gone
Beneath me
Buried
And she left
You're gone
So long
I don't know where I'll be
A life lived outside of me
Before you grow old and see
Nothing compared
Nothing compared
And I don't know nothing about my head
Feeling kinda sad and I'm feeling kinda brain-dead
Don't know nothing about my head
Feeling kinda sick and I'm feeling kinda brain-dead
Don't know nothing about my head
Feeling kinda sad and I'm feeling kinda brain-dead
And it just goes on and on, and on, and on, and on, and on and
On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and)
(Don't know nothing about my head, I'm feeling kinda sick and I'm feeling kinda brain-dead)
On and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and
(Don't know nothing about my head, I'm feeling kinda sad and I'm feeling kinda brain-dead)
