Like I Do 02:30
Why d’you beat yourself up, l’il girl, when you treat me so right? weight on your shoulders weight in your heart It ain’t right Just take a look at your hands, l’il girl Take a look at the light A shaky sunset not a beach (by the) deep blue sea You don’t think (like I do!) You don’t feel (like I do!) and you don’t love you like I do You don’t, you don’t, you don’t love (x4) You don’t love you like I do. Why d’you trust the fates, l’il girl? Let them control your mind? Taken over from what you need most just a little time

We were safe from the ugliness of this town when the white blanket rested gently on the brown Now, perhaps my nan’s necklace will be found Sun glares off the fields covered undisturbed little rocks scratch our cars and trees and curbs and howling winds blowin’ in from the suburbs Shake shake shake Shake the cold away Hope that it don't stay Breathe breathe breathe Breathe while you still can Dirt waits where it began It's springtime in my hometown Winter's air leaves the skin feeling dry and raw leave your boots on the heater by the door to thaw short time til we’re back into winter’s maw Potholes plague the streets, drives and avenues deep ruts make cuts and leave a trail of ooze. Hubcaps left behind, but I don't know whose. Shake shake shake Shake the cold away Hope that it don't stay Breathe breathe breathe Breathe in sunlit rain Comin’ to wash away the stains It's springtime in my hometown

Wide Angles 02:51
Tired and shaking I’m done for today Will I be ready for tomorrow? Feeling capsized feeling castaway Will I find home tomorrow? Through a different lens it still don’t seem okay Wide angles bend but can’t make it go away Make it go away Insides are aching Outside has given way I’m not built for tomorrow Fireworks bursting Breaking through the grey Signalling the birth of tomorrow Through a different lens it still don’t seem okay Wide angles bend but can’t make it go away Make it go away Restless and waiting I’m done for today How long until it’s tomorrow?

Beyond Me 03:27
Breathless Soundless hopeful foot falls inside and it’s dark Car walls are grey and dismal cold carpet marked and abysmal why you lie on it is always beyond me Always beyond me (3x) Like a shaking hand in an open door Peaking Waking stunned and drowsy see you creep outside trees shrink in the moonlight on steel lines your movements outside of real time why you jumped right out is so far beyond me. So far beyond me (3x) Like a shaking hand in an open door Broken heart and broken arms hips chest and shin But you got what you wanted now you’re so far beyond me The tracks, the train (so far beyond me) My plans in vain (so far beyond me) My plans in vain (so far beyond me) Like a shaking hand, in an open door The ground, the sky (so far beyond me) Why you and I (so far beyond me) Why you and I (so far beyond me) Like a shaking hand, in an open door

about

'The Ground The Sky' is the debut EP from Edmonton's Bombproof the Horses.

"...They certainly impress with an exemplary command of the essentials: catchy riffs, surefire melodies, engaging lyrics, sweet harmonies … in a nutshell, these are 4 fully realized songs by artists with an obvious knack for their craft... There’s a cohesive magic that’s already manifest in this brief but significant offering, and let’s hope The Ground The Sky is merely the beginning of a long and fruitful run for Bombproof The Horses." - Rokline.com, April 28, 2014
