about

The Local Pyramid's latest single is a heartbreaking ballad that cultivates an air of betrayal and despair.

lyrics

Stared at my phone for three minutes,
Writing a song but can't seem to begin it,
I'm full of thoughts and feelings all trapped by ceilings of grief

Been far to clean through my pains,
I need some dopamine shot up my veins,
Because I feel real sick, and need something quick and cheap

How do I construe...
What is it that I see in you?

You are the clouds passing the sun,
Then you're the bang heard by the gun,
I'm at ease unless you please to break my heart
Why do I fall again and again?
Make the mistake of being a friend to you,
Seems that's all I can do

I'm not obsessed, no I'm not obsessed
It's just that I have lots of questions,
and I think it's bad to stay pressed,
or so i've been told in all of my therapy sessions

Some say that I'm not very strong,
and I wish that they all could be wrong,
My words keep getting held down,
I'm flailing around and being me at your discretion,

I need a redo.
Stop all this pain you put me through,

You are the clouds passing the sun,
Then you're the bang heard by the gun,
I'm at ease unless you please to break my heart
Why do I fall again and again,
Make the mistake of being a friend to you,
Seems that's all I can do (x2)

Why do I fall again and again?
Make the mistake of being a friend to you,
Seems that's all I can do...
