about

Adam Spry is rejecting the flimsy plastic pushed off the assembly line and is getting his hands dirty with his new indie punk anthem “Painting By Numbers”. Supported by blistering guitars that will kick your teeth in, Spry’s tenacious vocals simultaneously bring a tear to your eye and will have you ready to start a revolution. Produced by Trevor Brooks (Ezra Furmans Twelve Nudes & Sex Education Soundtracks).

lyrics

Become the stain blend into the carpet
Sell yourself short
Pulling the strings and missing the target
We're right on course
Shining light revealing that you're just
Keeping your cool
It's hard to explain but you're trying your hardest
What else to do

Darling
We'll be alright
But a little bit of waiting does ya good

Picking the lock and painting by numbers
Fit into frames
Paradise is infinite slumber
And we're all the same
Treat yourself to a drink from the fountain
Life is a gas
Nobody knows til you're sitting and watching
Everything pass

Darling
We'll be alright
But a little bit of waiting does ya good
We'll be just fine
But a little bit of waiting does ya good
