ABOUT THE SONG: “Stuck In Place” – released on April 25th, 2024
“On the surface, “Stuck In Place” seems like a song about hating your hometown. But it’s actually about waking up one day and realizing that everyone else has moved on without you. They left to pursue their dreams and passions, while you don’t seem to have any. You’re stuck where you’ve always been, feeling left behind without a purpose or drive.
Musically, I wanted my vocals to have lots of layers and harmonies to fit with Nolan’s guitar riffs. It’s one of our mellower songs, and we aimed for a sort of ethereal, fuzzy feel to it. We started with a 90s-style wall of sound, and Ryan (McDonald) did a wonderful job editing it down to let the song shine through.”
– Kristen, Lonely Little Kitsch
““Stuck In Place” is a tune that underwent many transformations – it started as a moody, dark kind of distortion-soaked Jar of Flies – Alice in Chains-era kind of jam… and over time in the studio we changed the key, the tempo, and length to find a sound we felt was authentic Lonely Little Kitsch. Ryan McDonald (The Honest Heart Collective) really helped clean up the song with an incredible mix. When we heard the first playback we knew we were onto something we wanted to share with people – it’s a song that fits somewhere between 90s grunge and 70s Fleetwood Mac… I call it Fleetwood Grunge”
– Nolan, Lonely Little Kitsch

“Stuck In Place” Lyrics
Hours pass and time moves on
One more blink and then you're gone
Same old faces and the same old scenes
New perspective from an old routine
Take a look and then you'll see
Look and then you’ll see
That way out didn't come for me
No way out for me
Look around, this is all I know
This is all I know
Stuck in place, nowhere to go
You didn't come for me
You didn’t come for me
Where I've been and where I'll go
One-horse town where time moves slow
Caught a dream but I let it fly
This is where they go to die
Take a look and then you'll see
Look and then you’ll see
That way out didn't come for me
No way out for me
Look around, this is all I know
This is all I know
Stuck in place, nowhere to go
You didn't come for me
I know I won’t leave this city but the world keeps burning
The world keeps burning
I know I won’t leave this city but the world keeps burning
The world keeps burning
I know I won’t leave this city but the world keeps burning
The world keeps burning
I know I won’t leave this city but the world keeps burning
The world keeps burning
Take a look and then you'll see
The world keeps burning, the world keeps burning
That way out didn't come for me
The world keeps burning, the world keeps burning
Look around, this is all I know
The world keeps burning, the world keeps burning
Stuck in place, nowhere to go
This is all I know
This is all I know
This is all I know
You didn’t come for me

A lot of bands dick around and call themselves some made up genre or try to impress with some flash stupid gimmicks. Death Waits do not. This is pure as f@ck grunge. Buy it, Love It. Be Scum. Lonely Little Kitsch
