about

"Achilles" is the first single off of Spinster's self-titled debut album.

lyrics

Warning washed in wanting
Is all makeshift caution
I always have to stop and
Say it again

Wanting washed in waiting
For when my word is made good
Makes for no sort of someone
Worth wanting for

Waiting washed in yearning
Your achilles heel, it always aches
And the jealous arms of longing
They take and they take and they take
