about

If the fact that we love Jawbreaker is surprising to you then you haven't heard this band.

"Fears Reborn" was especially influenced by the record Dear You. Also, we covered this song at San Diego's Through Being Cool night back when shows were still a thing, so here it is again, but even sadder and more lonely sounding.

Love you, Jawbreaker.

lyrics

What's the furthest place from here?
It hasn't been my day
For a couple years
What's a couple more?

And if I go, don't forget
The one good thing I almost did
I learned your name without words
I used my eyes, not my hands

What's the closest you can come
To an almost total wreck
And still walk away
All limbs intact?

And when I go, you'll be there
Crying out, begging me
I won't hear, I'll just go fast
Into this night on broken legs

A near miss or a close call
I keep a room at the hospital
I scratch my accidents into the wall
I couldn't wait to breathe your breath
I cut in line, I bled to death
I got to you, there was nothing left

What's the meanest you can be
To the one you claim to love
And still smile to all
Your new-found friends?

In the same confusing breath
You pull away and draw me in
I wanted you, you wanted more
I built this life and now it's mine

A near miss or a close call
I keep a room at the hospital
I scratch my accidents into the wall
I couldn't wait to breathe your breath
I cut in line, I bled to death
I got to you, there was nothing left
