Treis - Something Like Home

Copied!

Writing lines in the flesh until the words
Meet the ivory
Cold tongue returns to press against my neck
– oh, the irony

Callous hands along my skin again;
Familiar associate of sin
Breaking all my rules to let you come back in:
Call it closure as wrists begin to open

It's just Something like Home
Or something close to it
Lying in bed
Next to a serpent

It's just Something like Home
Or something close to it
Lying in bed
Next to a serpent

So we twist around each other in the black
Like “baby don’t come back”
Romanticize every lie until the meaning dies
Then repeat our cyclical goodbyes

It's just Something like Home
Or something close to it
Lying in bed
Next to a serpent

edit bio

Treis (or Treis & Friends) is a conceptual Singer/Songwriter project based out of Central Florida, USA. Named after frontman Treis Alexander, the project documents events throughout the singer’s life in a combination of ever-evolving sound, brutal lyrical honesty, and multi-perspective narratives, while using suburbia, classicism, and popular iconography as tools to tell the story.

Treis' style varies greatly from album to album. In their debut project “HOUSES,” the singer takes a quiet, instrumentally bare, and lyrically heavy take on nostalgia, the naivety of childhood, and the concept of what makes a House a home. Meanwhile, their follow up project, “Homesick” moves towards a more electronic pop sound, and focuses more on metaphor (rather than the storyteller writing featured on the first album) to tell their story. In 2020, Treis revealed the singles “Familiar Strangers,” “The Morning After,” “Midnight Wine,” and “No Compromise,” for their third LP “Something Like Home,” which revealed a new sound of heady, cerebral, “Suburban Funk” inspired by Nu-Disco and Synthwave artists of the last four decades, mixed with the introspective, narrative lyrical styling of their early works.

The band consists of members Treis Alexander (Singer, and instrumentalist), Alex Canon (Bassist), and Rafael Castro (Drums).
