lyrics
Deer in the headlights
This place isn’t yours to know
But I wasn’t sleeping
And you were alone
Big city weeknights
Never had much to show
With your bad decisions
And my empty home
Brave enough to stare
Proud enough to smile
Low and unaware like a child
Desperate to give it away
Cycling the words they say
I'm not gonna get in the way
You are your enemy
Done with the future
The plans I was thinking of
Nobody’s sleeping
And no one’s in love
Throwing my head back
Pushing myself above
Laughing at nothing
Like what you’ve become
Afraid enough to care
Shy enough to smile
Entirely unprepared, you’re a child
Brave but unprepared
Shy but in denial
Entirely unaware you’re a child
I see you, Gloria
This place isn’t yours to know
But I wasn’t sleeping
And you were alone
Big city weeknights
Never had much to show
With your bad decisions
And my empty home
Brave enough to stare
Proud enough to smile
Low and unaware like a child
Desperate to give it away
Cycling the words they say
I'm not gonna get in the way
You are your enemy
Done with the future
The plans I was thinking of
Nobody’s sleeping
And no one’s in love
Throwing my head back
Pushing myself above
Laughing at nothing
Like what you’ve become
Afraid enough to care
Shy enough to smile
Entirely unprepared, you’re a child
Brave but unprepared
Shy but in denial
Entirely unaware you’re a child
I see you, Gloria

about
Unifier North Carolina
There are two sides to songwriting: feel good songs that captivate the mind, and songs that push the boundaries of a genre. The challenge is to make both sides happy with a catchy song that still moves a genre forward. Unifier’s debut album Colorado (produced by Jesse Cannon: The Cure, Saves The Day) has succeeded, fusing the pop-rock of Jimmy Eat World with the genre-pushing of Brand New. ... more
