lyrics

You should know
I’d take you anywhere
I'm just sorry that we
have to live through interesting times
Now that there’s
a fresh hell every day
Given what I’d clung to
I’m not sure if I can hold the line

Shouting until I’m hoarse
until my face is blue
Said I wasn’t worried
didn’t say it wasn’t true
Scratch until I bleed
up and down both arms
I never meant to worry you
You know I didn’t mean to fall apart

More and more
I find I can’t breathe
The sword's been moved and
now it's hanging over everyone
Lost what
I'd hung onto to keep
from falling over
Any day now it could just be done

...

I’ve got no idea now what to do
Swam out in the current
looking for you
Reaching for a line
in enough time
to pull us through

Fading fast
It still seems like a dream
It’s not getting better
and I keep on not waking up
Without what
I used to believe
Leaning on each other
is the only way we’ll make it

about

The Landed Gentry Madison, Wisconsin

Our first album, "What They Want," is protest music for the Trump era. We cover a lot of ground genre-wise, but the songs are tied together by a melodic pop sensibility and a 90s rock influence.

"What They Want" was written, recorded, and self-produced in a basement near Madison between Nov 2016 and Jun 2018.
