about

“Better Off” is the first song on Kilometers’ debut EP, “Hear Thy Neighbor”. The track starts off as a head-bobbing, jagged take on a folk song, with vocalists Connor Waage and Amanda Rafala harmonizing the bittersweet tugs of war surrounding a doomed relationship. The accompaniment is a tight unit, varying the rhythm of their earworm-y stabs and jabs with each verse. The song takes a detour to a more open, waltz-like section before returning to the initial groove.

lyrics

you always find me at the edge
i never jump but in my head
as long as you see, it makes sense

that's why we're better off
calling it off
calling it off

and by the time i wake, you're gone
no time to sleep, you slept shoes on
outside before your coffee's done

that's why we're better off
calling it off
calling it off

please don't
mind my penmanship;
this is documentation

in which
it is stated that
i don't owe you shit
