about

Gossamer is about feeling like you've woken up and suddenly you're so much older than you feel. You're not sure if you've wasted your life and your time. Everything feels like it just slipped through your fingers and you don't know what you should have done differently. But it's a universal feeling we think so many of us can relate to. So in the end, you just accept that there's more time to waste and you can't do it thinking about the past.

lyrics

LYRICS:
I spent so many nights looking at stars
(The clouds already full of faces)
I never thought that I would get that far
(You walk and run with half the paces)
And now I feel like I'm in a haze
(The smoke you made is holding spaces)
I'm lookin back on all my wasted days
(You've spent so many of them wasted)

I never wanted it that way
I thought I'd have so much better days
But now I'm waking up and I
Thought I would have a different life

I feel like I've got an empty cup
(You keep on tipping it all sideways)
And every day I try to fill it up
(You never tried to hold it upright)
I miss the time I could waste away
(Time goes on with or without you)
But now I'm waking up more tired than yesterday

I never wanted it that way
I thought I'd have the time to waste
But now I have let it all slip by
And now I'm doing the things that I

Know that I didn't do yesterday
I love the things I've done anyway
I know I've got a lot left to go
And you and me are gonna take it slow

WILD POWWERS Seattle, Washington

WILD POWWERS are 3 Seattle kids who “specialize in the sort of carefree grunge riff-rock that gets better the dirtier it gets. Each layer of meticulously gnarly distortion, each off-kilter lyric, drenched in garage-echo reverb, is pure Pacific Northwest filth” - KEXP. ... more
