The Damaged - Gallows Bound

The Damaged - Gallows Bound
3:06
Gallows Bound, 2014
Written by Gallows Bound?

A terrific acoustic neo-bluegrass, or folk-punk, band with muscle and a strong lead singer.  The finger-picking makes you dance around until you start to hear the words and get depressed.  It's the story of two people who don't get along any more but lack the strength to leave.  "And alone separately they cry."  They're damaged.  "How the damaged seem to love their kind / And they wait for someone to save them."  Bleak stuff!  Nowadays we call it being codependent or enabling.
