Surface envy


Throw me a rope, get me a line
I haven't seen daylight in what must be days
I took the long way down, was tracking myself
Confidence fell down the steepest of slopes
But if you get me a line, write me a note
[?] now I could do more
I feel so much stronger now that you're here
We've got so much to do, let me make that clear

We win, we lose
Only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose
Only together do we make the rules

I'm breaking the surface, tasting the air
Reaching for things that I could never before
The anchor is heavy, I can't hold the weight
They're pulling me down, won't let me be myself
[?] all in, fuck you all up
We're going too fast and holding me back
I push twice as hard, so what do you see?
And the past falls away to the bottom of the deep
We win, we lose
Only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose
Only together do we make the rules

We win, we lose
Only together do we break the rules
We win, we lose
Only together do we make the rules

We live ? say goodbye to your old way of life
I can breathe way up high, now it's our turn to fly

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Sleater-Kinney is an American alternative rock band formed in Olympia, Washington, in 1994. The founding members are Corin Tucker (vocals, guitar), Carrie Brownstein (guitar, vocals) and Janet Weiss (drums). The band's name comes from a street that runs through the Lacey neighborhood of Olympia. Sleater-Kinney achieved widespread popularity in the 1990s and 2000s for their energetic sound and feminist lyrics, becoming a landmark act in the American indie rock scene. Among their most important albums are *Dig Me Out* (1997), *The Hot Rock* (2000) and *All Hands on the Bad One* (2015). The group has collaborated with artists such as The Breeders and Bikini Kill, contributing to defining the aesthetics and philosophy of the riot grrrl movement.
