about

Careful Gaze is rock band from Minneapolis, Minnesota.
This is our third standalone single of 2020. Thank you for listening. This video was shot during the pandemic on multiple devices and at multiple locations that still maintained distance and safety. Thanks to Dillon for all of the help with bringing something beautiful to life while being so limited on our options.

This song is about driving back to your home state for your dead friends, and realizing how much we really do have to cling to each other. It's about celebrating life with the ones that you have, and building your own supportive community to get through this ever-changing life. To everyone we call friends - thank you. Let's stay alive together.

This is our final recorded song that will feature Jason Neymeyer on drums. We appreciate his time in this band and love him / wish him well on his next chapter of life. We will be bringing your more music soon.

lyrics

Can it be pleasant, can it be expected, when we die
Can your eyes be brilliant, can your hands be folded over mine
If we’re simply failures, can we fail together, and stay alive
And if I die before you, will you still move forward while I stay behind
Will it be honest, will we be present, the last time we talk
Will I say I’m sorry, that I got so angry, that I couldn't stop
If we lose all our vibrance, become muted violet, can we keep our minds
Can we sit in sunrooms, becoming faded fixtures pointing to easier times

We left our eloquence dangling on clothesline in the Summer wind
I don't think I was really an inside kid, I was depressed and unfocused
This "bury a friend" shit has made it all too apparent that we all deal with this
We develop minds that we don't understand, and then we let a system win
Don’t let the system win

I won't let you lose me
So don't let me lose you
If we fade in the sunlight
We'll live on as a different hue
