Give back to the disney kids, who flock all your establishments, they want your blood after all. That disney movie you're in destroys life just with it's name. Oh, poor Ryan, "You'll make it through the day" Oh, poor Ryan, "You'll groove it in every way" These three days are the best of your life, and you'll never ever ever see them again. Unfortunately, there's only desolation for you. Oh, poor Ryan, "You'll make it through the day" Oh, poor Ryan, "You'll groove it in every way" // You're a pretty girl, in a pretty world, nothing can change.

I am so ugly that the words just can't come out. Puss oozes from every pore, I'll never kiss my love. Pretend to be someone, they'll eat you if you don't. Maybe in another world you'll be beautiful like them.

Cherise 03:11
"Cherise! You've gotta be fucking kidding me!" Back on Sunday, I used to hear the byrds say, "Give me life, or give me death. Anything to remove me from this mess." What you want, what you need, what you CAN get.

Soft Tallow 04:51
What you want A new life Run crossed out into night Await for white washed hands begin to work But you sink into a hazy dream I am scared for the future, the plastic sheep today I will (will I) drift into soft tallow Dark waves surround me in day space Where you could not tell me your name Too drunk and pacified You fall What you had wanted to change Your life Rearrange the pieces of you I can’t carry through (What you had wanted carried the evening I can’t, no I can’t carry through) Hold onto your spinning world Still you dread cold hands Lenses not cracking, but unravelling So you speak Vexing In an age where things begin to converge It tries to find its place

I have been to the highest peaks, bled onto flags made of you and me. You were an anxious one, my dear. Blue crosses and satin drape from Kathy's door. She reverts, an inverted female form, there is nothing iconic or absurd. WELL I HAVE NOT FOUND. PIGS INSIDE GROUND. WATCH THE WITCH SHE WILL TAKE ALL YOUR MONEY. WELL I HAVE NOT BEEN RUMINATING EVER SINCE YOU TOOK IT ALL AND YOU LEFT ME OUT TO BLEED WELL I HAVE NOT FOUND PIGS INSIDE GROUND WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME AT THAT PARTY? Love flows from cerebral lust, you have no one you could ever trust, faithless you die all alone. Restless, weak, gagged and bound, society has grabbed on by now, for Kathy there's no escape. WELL I HAVE NOT FOUND. PIGS INSIDE GROUND. WATCH THE WITCH SHE WILL TAKE ALL YOUR MONEY. WELL I HAVE NOT BEEN ENDANGERED EVER SINCE NO LONGER FLOUNDERING ON A BED OF LIES WELL I HAVE NOT FOUND PIGS INSIDE GROUND WHAT DID YOU SAY TO ME AT THAT PARTY? "Watch the witch, she will take, all your money, all your money. Put her in the Kitch, where she will make, you a sammy, you a sammy."

Fire cascades from dawn. Righteous she is the lord. She runs, away from home, beaten by the words her father never said at all. Everything has changed, and everything stays the same. You omit transgressions against your own faith. Mother used to say to "be a good girl today", but you affixed shame, destination nowhere, a siren. Behold, a land of light. Enchantment flows like wine. Prisms from the divine. Coming to conclusions of the life you’ve left behind. Reconcile the pain, the struggles, and the fear burning in your soul. Ancestors will make you feel the pain you knew before.

I pulled myself so far away from you. Some of you, some part of you wanted me, too. Why do I still need this much from you? I need to see what's guiding me, what's leading me to the obscene.

about

Dear Listener,

We are so proud to have created this record. It has taken one and a half years, thousands of miles of commuting and labor like we never anticipated. This collection of songs is the best our brains have to offer as of right now, and we are extremely moved by the work we created and hope that you are too. It's been a long time coming. With all that we have learned from this record, we now have the wonderful opportunity to endeavor again and create even more ambitious works. We are excited for the prospects the future has to offer.

Thanks to all those who have supported us and keep supporting us.
Thanks to John's grandparents for all those practices in the basement.
Thanks to Stanley Balzekas for letting us use The Dealership.

POW,
521 Briar
