lyrics

I just told you the biggest lie and I can never take it back
I just looked into your eyes and sold it as a fact
I just whispered in your ear what I knew you'd want to hear
But I'm only thinking of myself and in a week I'll disappear.
Oh my god, did I really just exploit you? Looks like I'm going to hell if I'm caught

And I can never take it back
I won't ever take it back

Maybe I'm too late
Maybe it's too late
Maybe I'm too late and the reckoner will come my way

I don't love you the way I said I did
I can't love you and I never did
I never did

I just played you the biggest fraud and now I'll stab you in the back
These days my big stupid smile is the only friend I have

Dear old god, I just kissed your son and slain him
The blood on my hands I can never wash clean

And I can never wash it off

Maybe I'm too late
Maybe it's too late
Maybe I'm too late, and my legs are crossed on this cross I'm hanging
Maybe I'm too late
Maybe it's too late
Maybe I'm too late, with my tongue tied and my body buried.

about

Telyscopes Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

"Since 2012, Telyscopes has molted through one reinvention after another--shedding layers of lo-fi psychedelia, chamber pop, jazz, and electronica like cocoons as the project grows more legs, prettier wings, or sharper mandibles. The lifeblood remains the same: offbeat lyrics and striking melodies. Often ingenious--never typical."
