Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/190737
Verse 1
You
Doing that thing you do
Breaking my heart into a million pieces
Like you always do
And you
Don't mean to be cruel
You never even knew about the heartache
I've been going through

Chorus
And I try and try to forget you, girl
But it's just so hard to do
Every time you do that thing you do

I know all the games you play
And I'm gonna find a way to let you know that
You'll be mine someday

Verse 2
'Cause we
Could be happy, can't you see?
If you'd only let me be the one to hold you
And keep you here with me

Chorus
'Cause I try and try to forget you, girl
But it's just so hard to do
Every time you do that thing you do

Bridge
I don't ask a lot, girl
But I know one thing's for sure
It's the love I haven't got, girl
And I just can't take it anymore

Verse 3
'Cause we
Could be happy, can't you see?
If you'd only let me be the one to hold you
And keep you here with me
'Cause it hurts me so just to see you go
Around with someone new

Outro
And if I know you, you're doing that thing
Every day just doing that thing
I can't take you doing that thing you do

Biography

edit bio
By their own words, Cheekface is a “rock combo from Los Angeles made up of guitarist and signing person Greg Katz, bassist and other singing person Amanda Tannen, and drummer Mark "Echo” Edwards.“ Vocally, Katz meanders back and forth from a rhythmic Sprechgesang technique (an ode owed to the likes of Jonathan Richman) to wide-reaching but simple indie pop hooks backed by "oohs” and “ahs” from Tannen.

After moving to the LA area from New York, Tannen was seeking a writing partner. She became friends with Katz (then bassist of LA Font) and upon learning that he played guitar the two decided to try writing together. Echo, long acquainted with Katz in the LA music scene, was sent demos of such early tracks as “Crud,” “House Shoes,” and “Glendale” to provide drums.

Eschewing traditional release structure and refusing to pay for publicity, Cheekface puts out a seemingly-constant stream of singles on Katz’s own New Professor Music, dropping a new track as soon as it is complete. Combined with an earnest and approachable social media presence – regularly replying to fans, posting memes, and discussing matters such as attending therapy – they have earned a loyal following which is more than happy to provide word-of-mouth advertising. This approachable nature can be seen in live shows where they have invited entire audiences to participate on-stage with them.
