lyrics

ACHILLES HEEL

Never letting go

Was my Achilles heel
I'd stub my toe on details
Forget the sun was real

Dirty little secrets
And dirty little games

Flew too close to the sun
and my waxwings came undone

Flew too close to the sun
But I'm not the only one

Flew too close to the sun
Only to plummet into shedding blood

A dead ringer's hired gun
A fool who won't be outdone

Flew too close to the sun
and my wax wings came undone

Flew too close to the sun
But I'm not the only one.

Never getting old was your Achilles Heel
You'd cut your nose to spite your face
Forget the sun was real

Fuck those dirty secrets
I don't want to hear your name.

Flew too close to the sun
and you lost your only son.

Flew too close to the sun
But you're not the only one.


Flew too close to the sun
To plummet into shedding blood
A dead ringer's hired gun
A fool who won't be outdone.
Flew too close to the sun
And you lost your only son
Flew too close to the sun
But you're not the only one

But you're not the only one
But you're not the only one

No we're not the only ones.

Members: Kirby, Brock, Jon

What would happen if AmRep bands in the '90s were obsessed with disentangling pop sensibilities from their knot of noise? Vancouver's War Baby is exactly that: one part grunge ugliness, one part perfect pop pitch, two parts noise rock abandon. It's new wave for a disfigured world.
