Counterparts - Selfishly I Sink Lyrics
Bred to feel an unfamiliar touch
Lust begins and ends with both of us
Keep me close, drag me down
In the wake of shallow waves you leave
Spread slowly like a plague I've invited into me
Emotions cast like stones skipped across empty lakes
And selfishly I sink
Cure your rust from within
No desire lives past dawn
Nocturnal by default
Speak softly
Drive a nail through both of my lips if you must
We whisper as a metaphor for trust
Absence of affection
Not worth the cancer I have caused
Sever the ties to keep from stringing this along
Keep me close
Suspended just out of arms reach
No vacant pair of wings were ever fit to hold me
Keep me close
In the wake of shallow waves you leave
The water left me filthy
But somehow you're completely clean
Cure your rust from within
No desire lives past dawn
Nocturnal by default
Speak softly
Drive a nail through both of my lips if you must
We whisper as a metaphor for trust
Selfishly I sink
No vacant pair of wings were ever fit to hold me
Drag me down
Selfishly I sink

Bred to feel an unfamiliar touch
Lust begins and ends with both of us
Keep me close, drag me down
In the wake of shallow waves you leave
Fill the void like fingers in my mouth
Spread slowly like a plague I've invited into me
Emotions cast like stones skipped across empty lakes
And selfishly I sink
Cure your rust from within
No desire lives past dawn
Nocturnal by default
Speak softly

No vacant pair of wings were ever fit to hold me

I highly doubt it but is there any band with a very similar sound because I would love to know, I haven’t found one yet and I have heard a lot of artists? Their sound is too good and too original
DanylTrickz hundredth and capsize. Blake used to play for hundredth before he hopped in with counterparts after Jesse left and capsize is pretty much counterparts 2. And just a heads up, hundredth’s newest album is actually a shoe-gaze but everything before that is pretty close.
DanylTrickz saints never surrender, continuance, shai hulud :D they were also main influences for the start amazing underrated/not known bands
The guitar is delicious
Did I see Josh from STYG and Cory Wells?
The gucci bag flip at 1:09 haunts my dreams
That’s a B-side? Just another masterpiece!
Reminds me of a baptism
Fuck man this song is so good, love yall!
Amo porque el vídeo no tiene nada que ver 💕 aaaa, esta banda es todo lo que está bien
counterparts save my fuc***g life every day.
Dam man, I'm disappointed in myself for just Now discovering this amazingly awesome incredible band 😧😕😑
Wes B26 you have a lot of songs to catch up on, not one bad song
This is real music
How are these b sides, I liked all three songs.
I liked every single song this band has put out. It's truly amazing!
Perfect
Eu nunca ouvi uma música ruim dessa banda.
You guys wanna organise a festival with unknown bands? Because that'd be just like this song, perfect.
Holy shit.
Is that Dj Khaled
This song is so good. No idea how it didn’t make the album.
1:08 ohhhhh dayum
I love counterparts
I too,but listen more black metal,but this band that nice.
I'm so sad I feel the newest releases still the same with YNYA tbh.
Mario Valentino these were the songs that were cut from YNYA, they were recorded at the same time. We’re these are even seeing the light of day!
So bloody good.
always they give me courage
I feel like a bit of END just bled into Counterparts. So heavy, so powerful. Damn boys. Just, damn.
Nate Davies I wouldnt even be mad. End is pretty dope
N I C E M U S I C
What ?? New album ?
But it was recording recently ?
Sounds like Jesse's writing
This song fucks

counterparts fans are a certain type of people, always passionate and always loyal, love y'all
I love that you feel that way and could not agree more!
How in the actual fuck is this song a B side?!
breandan you monster...
Goodbyee Megaton! <3
we don't deserve this.
Your band deserve heaven and serious videos.
fact: COUNTERPARTS has 0 bad song
@JORJASO END is sick what you chatting
@Lewis Addison thats the point, END has another 6 great songs, but as its not counterparts and their counter was already at 0 bad songs, with END the counter goes down to -6 bad songs (??)
Except every song on YNYA, sorry but old counterparts is just better

impossible for these guys to write a bad song

How is that sad
Brendan i love you
there's not one bad release, NOT ONE, amazing.
Never said it was a bad album there is some good songs on it, just the album has a whole was more of a side step rather than progress on Prophets.
Greg Strain the difference between hell and home pissed all over tragedy will find us, you fuckin moron
Bad vocals and awful generic breakdowns but other than that it's alright.
@ Sjsnsnsna Dkdkslalsks
No one mentioned The Difference Between Hell and Home or Tragedy Will Find Us, except you, so read the fucking comments before you try to be smart, bawbag!
@Greg Strain you said every album has been an improvement over the last...tragedy will find us came out after the difference between hell and home. Ya fuckin bell end
Band consistently shits out gold.
Favorite Counterparts song since Tragedy Will Find Us. This is amazing
