WELCOME BACK

by powerbleeder

supported by

Mike Votava I can't believe how good this sounds. It's unbelievably good.

rpm Powerbleeder is my favorite band I've yet to see play live BUT THE DAY WILL COME.

~~ ASMR opportunity ~~ Favorite track: MITAKA.

kク22 this album in the sunshine or in the rain is everything I needed to distract from some deep darknesses--there's no "I'd rather listen to..." when I play this Favorite track: MERI AND MADDY.

sarahannbrush When asked what my favorite song on the album is, my initial thought was “I love ONE TIME LOVE” and “CAN’T CRY is an absolute banger...” and then I realized I can’t pick a favorite. I go to different places with each song and appreciate the wave of emotion that’s created floating in and out on my travels. Is David Plell a god among men? Is Webbon adorable? Is Linden lovable? Is Jonny a peach? I think yes.

1.	WELCOME BACK 01:34	lyrics
Welcome back to the show We’re going back before you lost it Now here’s a countdown from the speaker in the cockpit 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 Welcome back through time Between the ball and where you threw it You gave a dog too many rules and just confused it And now you’re moving You never know when it all will go You never know if you’ll find true love All that I know’s when my 10th toe meets the beach
2.	MERI AND MADDY 04:15	lyrics
You did something right and the oceans at high tide When you’re a famous occultist I’m your keeper of white owls Yesterday, I saw you at the park with friends Your summer dress has little dogs You got it all Man, I have to say Meri, i wanna meet you at the cafe Just like a serious business woman at the airport I really wanna meet you there And Maddy, you could meet us by the lake The golden fig and the thirty three tin charms should protect us from madness
3.	ONE-TIME LOVE 02:09	lyrics
I got a girl who blows my mind (wow) And when she touches I go blind (wow) That tricky love just fits with mine (wow) That’s why I want her all the time (wow) There’re constellations for the lewds (wow) With no black buttons to run through (wow) One naked eye looks back to you (wow) And there’s no guessing what she’ll do And that love will never ever change Our love is a one-time love Your hand is halfway there Your kill is half sincere Our love is a one-time love
4.	MITAKA 02:57	lyrics
Home, I’m calling Yokohama home The city lights draw out the lonesome Who’s gonna be your little jou-san Home, I’m calling Mitaka home A little beer and yaki-gyoza We’re gonna have a little party Alfred squats at a ramen shop Just look at that gorgeous hair He’s all dressed and ready and mostly unaware He trails off like a drunk bob ross in a dialogue with his hands He’s all dressed and ready But no one understands Home, I’m calling Setagaya home the sweetest air outside the pan-ya You got a date tonight in San-cha Home, it’s getting late you should go home It’s 20 minutes till the train stops But you’ll never make it, have a nice walk Strutting down the sidewalk like a runway with a stare He’s all dressed and ready but he isn’t even there He clops along like a voodoo doll with a clothespin in his chest He’s all dressed and ready You’re gonna be impressed
5.	CAN'T CRY 05:15	lyrics
At your job you get time to talk I’m waiting in line to say what I want I’m just a regular I’m the scribbled name on receipt paper Some of them say that I’m just too soft Clara’s concerned I’m not queer enough I’m like the hologram of your vacant father In piss-stained pants clapping his hands like it’s alright Every night I’m feeling so lonely Every time I wish you could hold me I’m staring at my face in the bathroom, and I can’t cry Is it the last time? I’m doing what my energy told me Everything about you don’t feel right Conversations end with a cold hug and a bus ride I’m not alright Every night I’m feeling so lonely Every time I wish you could hold me I’m staring at my face in the bathroom, and I can’t cry Is this a good bye? I’m never getting used to that feeling Just like a little hole in the ceiling I’m staring at my face in the bathroom and I can’t cry Summer picnic in hollyhock I’m running the circuit to find a spot I even fool around with the curious strangers from out of town Watching movies won’t get me far I’m calling my brother who talks a lot Always a fire truck or an ambulance screaming passed my house Guess that’s home in the end
6.	VOLLEYBALL 03:40	lyrics
Volleyball, we can explore ourselves 高く飛ぶな、ボール高く飛ぶな、選手超喜ぶね、客今度呼ぶね、本当 All the things that i don’t understand Are the wants that grow up in my hands If I owe you a hug, who’s it pay? All the things that i waste everyday If we go as a team, we can stay On the roof at the end of the day How’s the skin on your back so soft? Like the hills at the summer cookoff Volleyball, we can explore ourselves
7.	ANDREA'S TOOLS 04:02	lyrics
Andrea’s cleaning her tools for the show But the audience wants a laugh Hey, it’s feels cool, it feels dumb to be paid Andrea’s wrapping her feet for the march But the band is too large to gas Hey, it feels cool, it feels dumb to be safe
8.	DANIEL'S POTLUCK 02:52	lyrics
Daniel’s having a potluck at his house at six o’clock Hope you come back, hope you come back Daniel’s having a potluck at his house at six o’clock Who should I bring? Who should I bring? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Daniel’s having a potluck at his house at six o’clock And I feel like a dandelion
