Track Three: Inner Child

Available Now: Free Download | iTunes | Vinyl

I stamp around to show you that i’m mad enough to hold my breath.

How would you describe the way you felt when you were young?

Was it tragically disturbing or the height of all you’ve known?

Where you always inside early? 

Or were you drifting around with your friends?

I was always at home.

I wish I was I wish I was a kid!! 

I wish I was a little stupid kid!

My inner child is raging wild and crawling out my skin.

It’ll devour all my manners till there’s nothing to defend.

It’s hoping i’ll give in. It feels so deliberate. 

It wants to fucking scream.

It needs a chance to breath.

Track Two: Can’t Expect

Available Now: Free Download | iTunes | Vinyl

Everything I do is wrong, like racing to be in your arms

Should I just stop? Should I just stop?

But you can’t expect me to know what to do

But you can’t expect me to say it’ll never happen

Everything I do is wrong,

You can’t blame me, you can’t blame me at all. What’s the use

But you can’t expect me to know what to do.

But you can’t expect me to say it’ll never happen.

It’ll never happen, it’ll never happen again.

And if I get a chance, will you leave it by a light.

At which point i’ll return, when the sun has set.

Track One: Silver Lake

Available Now: Free Download | iTunes | Vinyl

I’m glad we’re not afraid to move so far away

we’ll be alright. what will be, will be

And if i’m going to live in a valley, I want to wake up to smell the sea

Making music with my friends

Plus you and Dali can come

We’ll never go where you can’t follow for long

We’ll all live in silver lake

We’ve always wanted to leave this town

We’re working on it

It’ll take a while, but we’ll all live in silver lake

From The Promise Hero:

Did you know Jeff DiLorenzo played piano on “Winning or Losing”? I think he did a great job.

thepromisehero:

“Why My So Jealous” was one of twenty or so songs I wrote in July of 2007 about a girl I was obsessing over!
