Biography:
Alternately explosive and restrained, the aptly titled The Bloom and the Blight is a meditation on past and present - melodic fury matched with the eloquent, confessional lyricism that has made Two Gallants an enduring favorite of both fans and critics.
Capturing the sound of a new beginning, The Bloom and the Blight celebrates the band’s much anticipated reunion following a multi-year break. It is the work of Two Gallants, fully matured, the band fearlessly exploring new ground in search of a sound that defines a very personal catharsis.

[Intro]
C F C F C G F C G
[Verse 1]
C
well I guess by the blood stain of your lips
F
and the wander of your fingertips
C F C
I should prove true to my empteyness and stay here
C
well I’m just a kid of ill repute
G
but the skin I wear’s my only suit
F C G
and you you’re just a substitute for the one that I hold dear
F G C
you know you could be anyone
G F
god forgive my tasteless tongue
G C
I never should have been set free
F G C
I claw my eyes I skin my face
G F
beg somehow to be replaced
G C
that’s how we deal with boys like me
[Verse 2]
C
well I guess by this world so sick with loss
F
and your services so free of cost
C F C
I should climb down off my rugged cross and lay with you
C
but you know by now it's half past late
G
and I only came here for escape
F
you you’re just my next mistake
C G
like me to you
F G C
you know you could be anyone
G F
god forgive your unborn sons
G C
I hope they don’t end up like me
F G C
I drag my mind through streets of shame
G F
blame myself forgive the game
G C G
that’s how we deal with boys like me
[Refrain]
G C G
but despite what you’ve been told
F
I once had a soul
C
left somewhere behind
G F
a former friend of mine
Am
and I hate to speak so free
G
but you mean nothing to me
F
so if the street lights they shine bright
G C
I’ll be home tonight
[Verse 3]
C
I guess by the dim light in your eyes
F
and that to you all things come as a surprise
C F C
I should set the steel trap of your thighs and dive right in
C
but to you I’m just a confused child
G
insecure or in denial
F C G
go raise your robes go have your trial I’ll let you win
F G C
you know I could be anyone
G F
god forgive what I should’ve done
G C
my thoughts enough to guilty be
F G C
yes I guess I made this bed
G F
but I’ll take the sidewalk instead
G C
that’s how we deal with boys like me
[Refrain]
G C G
but despite what you’ve been told
F
I once had a soul
C
left somewhere behind
G F
a former friend of mine
G Am
and I hate to sound so true
G
but I mean nothing to you
F
so if the street lights they shine bright
G C G F C G F
I’ll get home tonight
