lyrics

strung out on sickness you’ve spun in my mind
held onto hope made to break by design
drove through your desert to end your mirage
but you left the scene once you got your applause

burn me bright white and drown me in gold

while you’re still stuck in the summer, i’ve been freezing in the cold
you swapped me out for another puppet you can control
while you’re still stuck in the summer, i’ve broken from your stranglehold
you swapped me out for another puppet you can control

harbor your hate, let it ache like a bruise
suffer your shame from the actions you choose
go make your mark on the side of the page
smudge it and stain just to purge all the pain

burn me bright white and drown me in gold
shut your mouth tight and do what you’re told

while you’re still stuck in the summer, i’ve been freezing in the cold
you swapped me out for another puppet you can control
while you’re still stuck in the summer, i’ve broken from your stranglehold
you swapped me out for another puppet you can control

pull my strings and tie them into a knot
throw your stones back, i wanna see your best shot

pull my strings and tie them into a knot
you’re full of hot air, try to do more than talk

but you’re still stuck in the summer

while you’re still stuck in the summer, i’ve been freezing in the cold
you swapped me out for another puppet you can control
while you’re still stuck in the summer, i’ve broken from your stranglehold
you swapped me out for another puppet you can control

strung out on sickness you’ve spun in my mind
held onto hope made to break by design
drove through your desert to end your mirage
but you left the scene once you got your applause

Four Dollar Piece Rockaway, New Jersey

Taking their name from an uncirculated American gold coin from 1879, Four Dollar Piece (Paul MacMichael and Peter Koza) combine elements of alternative and garage rock with distorted drum machines and synthesizers. The duo's mantra of "big riff energy" permeates through its poignant but heavy rock songs. ... more
