lyrics

Tell me what it's all about,
Can it wait? Is it time to lay it out?
When I look at you, I see myself.

Do you know? Or feign to try?
Let it show, I won't judge your pride,
If you told the truth inside.

The answer linger in the distance, the questions hold the key.
But If I swallow my illusions, I'll miss your remedy.

I'll bear the weight, your gospel blues.
Mind your mistakes, live the way one life can't teach me to.
The air it thick now, I'll bite the fear.
Lend me your eyes, so I see clearly.

Who's the child that's deep within?
Is he waiting for his good dreams to begin?
Quiet in the hopes, they'll carry through.

These aching bones have brought their wisdom,
And the courage to say.
There's no disgrace in your desires.
Maybe we'll break the expectations made, and pass the doubt ignite your flame.
Look at your future, see all you have to gain.

I'll bear the weight, your gospel blues.
Mind your mistakes, live the way one life can't teach me to.
The air it thick now, I'll bite the fear.
Lend me your eyes, so I see clearly.

What to do, this must be real.
'Til the end I won't know how it feels.

Jitensha Montreal, Québec

Jitensha is the garage rock love child of Erin Rose Hubbard and David Martinez. The sound is a silvery union of honey sweet proto-punkiness and modern indie that is harmonically reminiscent of 1950s rock & roll. With vocals, electric guitar and drums, stealing a niche somewhere between the White Stripes and the Civil Wars, Jitensha nestles catchy, poignant melodies into hard hitting rock grooves. ... more
