Top 10 Songs Chosen By The Bat Bites































 Anyone who was reading this blog last year will possibly already know of my love for The Bat Bites. Their song, Tomorrow, made the top 3 in my end of year chart and their self titled album (http://thebatbites.bandcamp.com/album/the-bat-bites) was my favourite pop punk release of 2014.

  Today I'd like to thank Merel and Ivo from the band for compiling a top 10 of their favourite ever songs.

 1) The Menzingers - The Obituaries

We stumbled and stared at the carnival lights that lit up New York City,
From a rooftop in Brooklyn that was covered in bad graffiti.
And then I let a thousand splinters pierce right through my spoiled liver,
Or whatever that was left of it.

'Cause I've cursed my lonely memory with picture-perfect imagery.
Maybe I'm not dying I'm just living in decaying cities,
But I'm still healthy, I'm still fine,
I've been spending all my time reading the obituaries.

But I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.
I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.
I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.
I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.

'Cause I am the shadow of the waxwing slain
I felt the false azure from windowpanes
I am just freaking out, yeah I'll be fine.

But I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.
I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.
I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.
I will fuck this up,
I fucking know it.
