LA area punk / power-pop band For Closure has released a new single ‘Careful What You Wish For’ via Mindpower Records.
Frontman Gizz Lazlo (former drummer of U.K. Subs, Dr. Know and The Freeze) says: “‘Careful What You Wish For’ is a story about unrequited love. A story about someone who loves too deeply. A person who believes in true love but is lost in an ocean of love, and suddenly realizes that they’re not the only person in their lover’s eyes, life, and heart. It’s about going to your lover’s home to surprise them with a weekend getaway and seeing someone else there who’s known for their past as not a good person in their previous relationships. Someone who was told that that other person was just a friend, and then realized they were being lied to over and over again. It’s about wondering what to do – run or fight? In this story, the jilted lover decides to walk away but leaves a message behind. A message of Karma. No one in their right mind wants to see their ex physically hurt, but for an idealist dreamer, there has to be that moment when you find out that your ex has been left behind the way you knew it was going to end, and you can’t help but feel that feeling of reprieve in that you’re not the only one whose heart was broken. So if you’re cheating on your mate, seeing someone behind their back, or just flirting with someone else and thinking you can do better? There’s always the chance that your new “toy” will in turn do everything you’ve done to your ex. It’s not hard to love someone, but today it seems hard to keep someone in your life and keep that loving flame ablaze. So be careful what you wish for.”
