I thought of you for months with no intent to stop
And taught myself old songs I might never play for you
I don't want to forget this flash of what you are
And what you mean to me now when I have everything to lose
Your face felt like a kiss those times I was alone
I sang to you more than you might ever know
I made a mistake - I made a fraction known
And the whole thing inside me screwed and twisted and burned
I got carried away
I just want to scream how much that I adore you
I swallow it whole and I choke on the thought
In brief and passing moments - Your hand against mine lightly
Where you begin, I feel the end of me
I got carried away
I push against the shame - I feel too much to lie
My whole life I've tried to diminish and deny
But I can love you from a distance if that's what I'm meant to do
I don't know if it will last, but it feels like pain that I'm supposed to
I got carried away
I got carried away

The Purge Norfolk, Virginia
Dark 80s-inspired pop. Dance floor anthems and melancholia.
The Purge recommends:
DARK DAYS BRIGHT LIGHTS
by Angel Metro
Not only did this woman book the show that changed my life as a recording artist back in 2016, but she's an incredibly talented artist with a tailored aesthetic and a "no fuckboys" attitude. Follow.

Myriologues
by Ships In The Night
This album moved me to tears when I first heard it. Happy to say that I've become friends with this artist and Ms. Leventhal is as kind and insightful in person as her music might have you believe.

The End Is the Beginning
by Mirror Of Haze
Perfectly gloomy Norwegian goth/post-punk, anchored by a punchy rhythm section and driven by chiming guitar lines and morose vocals.

“Strangers” is packed with wonderfully menacing electro-goth—late-night horror movie music for vampire dance parties.
