Porch Cat - It's Too Quiet

Copied!

{Verse 1}
I don't know why, I'm gonna cry
And I am full of goddamn lies
If you weren't there, I would have tried
But it's too quiet to sing about

{Verse 2}
Anxiety's a variety
Of constant sparks of rioting
And sudden is the quieting
But it's too dark to sing about

{Verse 3}
Sugar pills, script refills
Lately I've been writing wills
I've gotten over many hills
But it's too heavy to sing about

{Bridge}
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, ah
Ooh, ooh, ooh

{Verse 4}
But it's too quiet to sing about
But it's too dark to sing about
But it's too heavy to sing about

{Verse 5}
La, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, ah
Ah, ah
Ooh, ooh, ooh
But it's too quiet to sing about

Porch Cat is a dream-pop, punk-based band from Bellingham, Washington. Most of the information regarding the band is on their Facebook page, and their Bandcamp. The band is led by Chan Barraza Benicki, a nonbinary lesbian who struggles with several medical conditions. Chan details the purpose and information on the band on their Facebook page, under their about, titled “Our Story”.

Porch Cat is:
Porch Cat is the musical project of singer-songwriter, Chan Barraza. Through uptempo punk songs, sludgy ballads, and pop hooks, Porch Cat writes about queer identity, pain and chronic illness, abuse and assault, colonization and racism – ultimately returning to themes of love and empowerment.
As a queer, nonbinary, disabled and chronically ill Latina, Porch Cat strives to push the boundaries of representation in music, as well as fight for feminism, queer rights, disability rights, and against racism.
Porch Cat originally began as an acoustic singer-songwriter project by Chan Barraza in 2011 in Bellingham, WA. Benicki began to learn guitar at age 12, and soon combined their love for writing poetry and singing into writing original songs. Throughout their life, Barraza explored theatre, photography, and visual arts, but it wasn’t until they were in college that they played music as part of a band. Since then, Porch Cat has transformed from an acoustic, folk sound, to an electric band influenced by Barraza’s love of punk, indie, and alternative rock. Barraza lives with chronic illness, including Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Narcolepsy with Cataplexy, PTSD, and PMDD.
