about

The 'Honeymoon phase', signifies the removal of blinding rose tinted glasses to reveal a relationship filled with flaws and impossible obstacles. The sudden absence of connections and passion has you desperate to feel how you once did, despite knowing the dysfunction will ultimately force you apart.

lyrics

Honeymoon Phase

You’ve been here all day, we’ve barely spoken
You know I sure do love, to bathe in my freedom
But when it’s a little too much, what are we doing
I’m feeling a little untouched

We’re out on the town now, but you’re on your phone
No connection to account for, we might as well just stayed home
See you packing up all your bells and whistles
I guess we’re at the end of an era, I guess we’re at the end of an era
I guess we’re at the end

The honeymoon phase gone out of season
I’m gripping the edges of what I believed in
I’m wrenching my heart to get back the feeling
I’m scared that I won’t

You know me so well, in ways that I don’t
But there’s always other things that I’m sure you could know
I know you so well, maybe I don’t
We’re complex creatures doomed to always grow

Now we’re packing up all our bells and whistles
I guess we’re at the end of an era, I guess we’re at the end of an era
I guess we’re at the end of an era

The honeymoon phase gone out of season
I’m gripping the edges of what I believed in
I’m wrenching my heart to get back the feeling
I’m scared that I won’t

The honeymoon phase gone out of season
These summer days suddenly freezing
I’m wrenching my heart to get back the feeling
I’m scared that I won’t

The honeymoon phase gone out of season
I’m gripping the edges of what I believed in
I’m wrenching my heart to get back the feeling
I’m scared that I won’t, I’m scared that I won’t
Scared that I won’t, scared that I won’t

I guess we’re at the end of an era, I guess we’re at the end of an era

about

King Ibis Perth, Australia

Perth indie-pop/rock band King Ibis makes music that feels distinctively Western Australian while also being unlike anything you’ve heard before. Their sun-bleached, stripped-down rhythms combine with soaring vocals and a cheeky sense of humour to create irresistibly catchy songs. Fun, heartfelt and a little bit quirky, this young foursome might just be your new favourite band. ... more
