Lyrics:
[Chorus]
And I know we were kind when it started
I miss it though
Yeah, we paid in the end
You gave it your best
[Verse 1]
And it was all okay
Memories all over the place
Oh, I know she'd say
"What we had was great"
[Pre-Chorus]
Mary, please
I’ll open up
Desire to fight'll dissolve
[Chorus]
Fine, let it go
I've been sick of the slow
And our faces don’t look right
We were kind, never mean
You can't see what I see
Believe me though
You gave it your best
[Verse 2]
And it was all okay
Memories all over the place
Oh, I doubt she'd say
"What we had was great"
[Chorus]
This time, let it go
I've been sick of the slow
And our faces don't look right
We were kind on the phone
Mary needs some alone time, yeah
You gave it your best
[Outro]
Time falls, met so many lost causes
I'm on the floor now
Trying my best
Time's gone, lost so many
Times I couldn't get between us
You gave it your best

As the kind of guitarist who gets bored of basic triads very easily, I've never found a boring benches song even though I can't remember anything like a 7 chord. Always unbelievably fun to sing and play on guitar🔥

[@AlexA-xw5cx]

I can't wait till I get my guitar and learn to play benches songs.

[@DaBellMonkey]

Bro I swear I looked for this band nonstop for years just to randomly find them in my liked playlist.

if "Is This It"
but it came out in 2019, man i fucking love this sound

[@Iggysluckytonite]

You mean 2005! This sound had long passed in 2019 in the mainstream and bands doing this sound were doing more of a callback rather than keeping up with contemporary

The strokes ?

[@YoussefSelim8]

Wdym?

[@nurpooo1962]

​@@YoussefSelim8 As a fan of the strokes, I find the rhythm and the way Anson sings at 0:45 quite similar.

[@YoussefSelim8]

@@nurpooo1962 I mean I see it but why complain. They are influenced by the strokes which I like and they do it in a good way. Also a lot of famous bands are influenced by the strokes

[@nurpooo1962]

@@YoussefSelim8 Im not complainin, just say that sounds similar but in a good way

[@kimsanto8011]

[@Decadency11]

Almost an exact copie of The Strokes. Old bands get copied and old things are rehashed for the young kids which are the targeted market. The young one's are not old enough or there to remember, but nothing really has changed since about 10,000 b.c.

[@scotchperson]

The strokes have more distorted vocals. the sounds between bands are easily different when you compare these bands

[@ollygaming2370]

The guys voice is similar? They are not a copy, no where near lmao

[@YoussefSelim8]

good artists take inspiration from other artists
