The first single, “at the bottom”, from Brand New’s fourth studio album Daisy has just been released on the band’s Myspace page. It has me seriously hyped for the new album.
I really hope the single is indicative of what the album will sound like.
Deja Entendu was great, The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me was better, and Daisy will (hopefully) be another inprovement. Brand New is one of the few bands that is able to consistently improve over time.
You can also download the single on Amazon.com
At the Bottom Lyrics:
Wait, watched you throw out your bouquet
Now I think about you everyday
I’m alone now in my bedAnd there’s a lake
And at the bottom you’ll find all my friends
They don’t swim cause they’re all dead
We never are what we intend or inventCause I make little lies and then I pull them apart
Think something dark’s living down in my heart
And if I wanted to die before I got old
I should have started some years ago digging that holeWell I carry this box to the proper place
And when I lower it down
I let it you fade away
I hope that you would do this for me
I’d serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for meA deer that a hunter shot in the heart
Some dogs that got hit by cars
All came to spill their guts
And we spoke
About the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
And which songs we had loved the most
And then we all turned to dirt
And dustSome men die under the mountain looking for gold
Some die looking for a hand to holdWell I carry this box to its proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
I know that you would do this for me
I’d serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for meI’m slowly bringing you down from the heavenly gates
Now I’m drowning in the flood I made
Well explain myself to me on the other side
I’ll watch from Heaven when I dieWell I carry this box to the proper place
And when I lower it down
I let you fade away
I know that you would do this for me
I’d serve you drugs on a silver plate
If I thought it would help you get away
I hope that you would do this for me
