Song: Where Have You Been
Written by: Manchester Orchestra
Performed by: Catch the Rabbit
This is a really hauntingly beautiful song that we all fell in love with after our friends, the band Annuals, introduced us to both the original and their cover of it. We then decided to put our own spin on a rendition. Seriously, if you don't know either of these bands, please go check them out. Andy Hull and Adam Baker are both geniuses, their bands are fantastic, and anything you like in this cover can be directly linked to our admiration for these guys.
lyrics
They call holidays an option for a reason;
I heard you're coming back to life just for the fourth.
And I've been catching all your ghosts for every season;
I pray to God you won't come back here anymore.
Do you pray with Him, too?
They should deliver all my blessings
In small brown paper handbags near the porch.
And I wished I'd known that you were bleeding while I sat
And watched you reading with the Lord.
I read with Him, too
'Cause when you look at me,
I'll be digesting your legs.
'Cause I can hardly see
What's in front of me these days
And those days, too.
I've got to take what I'm making
And turn it into something,
I've got to take what I'm making
And turn it into something for you.
I've got to break what I'm making
And turn it into nothing,
I've got to break what I'm making
And turn it into nothing for you.
'Cause when you look at me,
I'll be digesting your legs.
'Cause I can hardly see
What's in front of me these days
And those days, too.
Joy, where have you been?
Joy, where have you been?
Joy, where have you been?
Joy, where have you been?
God, my God, my God, where have you been?
God, my God, my God, where have you been?
