about

For its first single Blame, Roquemore sets stirring strings over soaring vocals to crush universal feelings of chaos with plush inflection.

lyrics

I couldn’t hope for a sense of doubt
I couldn’t dream it would be enough
You’ve got me hoping for a sense of doubt
When all I need is just a little love

At times I have to wave the baton
In time to get away with it, honey
And, If all I told you was wrong
Well, it’s all you're gonna get from me, honey

The world is sweet
The world is sweet, but not enough, baby

I couldn’t know from the cenotaph
That Irony never interrupts
I made love on a cenotaph
It all feels just a little f**ked

At times I put the weight back on
In time to get away with it, honey
And, If all I‘ve told you is who belongs
Well, it’s all you're gonna get if you don’t back down

The world is sweet
The world is sweet, but not enough, baby

At times I have to wave the baton
In time to get away with it honey
And, if all I’ve told you was wrong
Well, it’s all you’re gonna get from me, honey
The world is sweet
The world is sweet The world is sweet
