Tear the roof off this building, I’m ready to fly
I’ve been waiting to meet you my whole fucking life
I couldn’t be more terrified
Am I chasing acceptance, (just) piling on lies
Real life has only ever been a disguise
I couldn't be more terrified
No comfort in
The noise, in my head
Let yourself out, I’m done with it

Grand Scam Home Run

There was a time when I thought I could make it out of this cell,
I locked myself in,
call it hell, I called it escaping.
Watching snowflakes hit my tongue,
Sting of the cold oh just to feel something
I want to feel something
Always stuck playing this game of hide and seek
Never know if the one who's searching is me
But it feels the losses are totaling
Everyone’s choosing their delusions
Fighting to keep the truth at bay
Can be easy to blame all the CYNICISM
Maybe we’ll never know the way
I’ve been afraid for too long of standing on my
Own two feet, I never
Trusted myself, I should be braver
And I’m off chasing sunsets, chasing dreams
What I need is to stop for a minute, just breathe
Don't you want to feel something
A fortune mismanaged
Is more than others got
Prepacked perspective, styled and taught
Got look at the ruse they try to sell you
(All these) proof of success are based on failure
Practicing scripture with no intent
With no intent to read on their own

Always-Life Crisis

I know you’re here, but still I never felt so alone
I can always say the wrong thing at the exact right moment
But I can never find the words, I mean,
When I know, when I know it matters most
I told myself that I could, and hoped one day that I’d believe it
I can always make the wrong move at the worst fucking moment
But I can never force myself to take, a chance,
When I know, when I know it matters most
Just stand up, when you feel yourself sinking
Don’t play it over in your head, when you know that it’s already over with
Just scream out, when you feel yourself shrinking
Let this be a reminder, know that you’re, plenty worth it
When I hear that voice, I wish that someone else was speaking
Cause I hate the way it sounds, and worse I hate the way I’m feeling
Sure, I could tell you all that I’m, I’m doing just fine
Don’t tell, me you’ve got good intentions
I hope that you can be proud, of yourself someday
I hope you find the words you needed when
You, were younger, searching so desperately for something that
You, could see yourself in
Deep down you’re still searching til this day

Fitting to the Hat

You and I can rise up, but they’ll never rise again
Intolerance, injustice, it’s the sickest fucking thing
You and I, no we might never agree,
But tell me when has violence solved anything
Sexist, racist, homophobes,
Hatred can’t be all you really know
I won’t remain, silent, opposition is growing stronger everyday
Standing on the rooftops, in solidarity
Screaming for our right to be free
You and I can stand up, show the world what we believe
United in resistance, oh can’t we learn from history
You and I, no we might never agree
But, when has violence solved anything
Transphobic, alt-right, xenophobes
Not this time, we’re taking back control
I won’t remain, silent, opposition is growing stronger everyday
Standing on the rooftops, in solidarity
Screaming for our right to be free

Night fell, just as the new day began to be clear to me
Still trying to find a way to fight the lines replayed
Clinging hard to memory, stuck miles away from reverie
Another time, another life, avoiding every way
You keep Moving slow and sure with mistakes your gonna make
Unsure if its confidence or coincidence driving fate
does it ever get old
Reflecting in a room of your regrets
But you never had a mirror anyways
Im not sure what we deserve
Havent changed much of anything but still suffocated with doubt
Is everything we’ve worked for still valid, or should we ignore it?
Not here to complain, just need to sort it
Is it all worth the cost, now that we can’t source it
(hollow place)
Im not sure what we deserve
Havent changed much of anything but still suffocated with doubt
Is this something to preserve?
Struggling for anything to free me from this doubt

I don’t want to wake up in,
a world that
Continues to look like this one
I’ve been doing nothing to help change it
I’ve been doing nothing but complaining to myself
As I watch you biting your tongue,
Does it get harder to hold back
I wish it got harder, for me to hold back
Honestly, I’m getting tired
Of letting myself stay quiet
Over thinking again
I’m still learning to let go,
Of the dead weight
Of the voice that lives inside me
I’ve been trying so hard to ignore it
Cause I know if I don’t, it will destroy me
I stood there biting my tongue
It never got harder to hold back
I wish it got harder for me to hold back
Honestly, I’m getting tired
Of letting myself stay quiet
Over thinking again
I know I’m getting in my own way
I know I can’t wait another day for it, for it to end/change
Tell me how you can stay so calm, when everything in life is so dark
I just feel so fucking small, trying hard not to burn out
Tell me how you can stay so calm, when everything in life is so dark
I just feel so fucking small, trying hard not to lose hope

Apathy
02:58

I took a lesson in apathy
I stopped caring about everything
I took a lesson in empathy
And I realized you don’t really care about anything
If only I could just settle in
Instead of trying to disappear without
Leaving as much as a footprint to miss oh
You keep running, but no there’s no escaping
You’ve been spending all your time
trying to prove to yourself
you still have convictions,
Do you still have convictions?
I keep trying to erase
All the things I had thought were fair
Compassionate mistakes
Maybe I’ll push the blame on those not there?
I cant be the one
to keep pleading for virtue
And I can’t be the one
To overthink for you
You’ve been spending all your time
trying to prove to yourself
you still have convictions, do you still have convictions?
You’ve been spending all your time
searching anxiously for something to believe in
To pick you up, just to be let down
To ease it, your racing, to ease your racing mind.
To find some balance, to ease your racing mind
To find a way to ease your racing mind.
Just keep on fighting
Will we ever find it, a way to
Bury the hatchet
Shake the feeling of despair
All these lessons are based on the notes you take
Hope you find their proper value before it’s too late
Not saying for you that it’s time to go
I know it’s hard to find, but
You can learn about anything

Thought that i was moving forward
Just to be placed back down and be turned around
Frozen by the start up process
But the starting pistol never made a sound
And I’ve got plenty of answers to questions in my head
For conversations I’ll probably never have
It’s not I don’t want them, I just don’t need them,
Where do they come from, why do I have them?
that space could be better empty instead
AS TIME TELLS IM LOSING ALL MY LEADS
CAUGHT SPYING JUST TO PREDICT MORE DEFEAT
AS I YELL THIS IS “SOMETHING THAT ILL BEAT”
MAYBE ILL JUST DIG MY GRAVE NOT SO DEEP
SO IF I CAN RETURN AND REMEMBER ANY DREAMS
PERHAPS I CAN BECOME WHAT YOU ALL SEE OF ME

Sometimes I feel like an asshole
Like I can’t be trusted
To keep myself afloat with all
Of these heavy feelings circling over
and over in my head
Don’t tell me you get it
I can see that you don’t
Don’t tell me it’s over
When clearly it’s not
It won’t make me feel better
I assure you it won’t
And I’m losing control
Sometimes I feel like a failure
No I can't be trusted
to finish anything I start
I should give myself credit, but I just give excuses
How can I get myself to stop

Fun Fact II : Fun Facts
01:47

Scrolling for days
Burn my eyes out
It’s like candy for the brain
Lean in dissociate
Don’t have the energy to pay attention
Don’t have the bravery to break free from my defenses
It’s not my problem,
Can’t solve your problems
Kicking pebbles up
Watching boulders fall
Nostalgia decays
Is this what we want now?
Ethic crowds deliberate
Compasses recalibrate
Hunting, for peace as if it could
fill you up for days but
like a, seasoned heart breaker
passion takes everything.
Giving up, becoming what you hate
Choosing distractions
Making, excuses for days
Desperate for change

You keep building it up, up higher in your head
Oh when is enough, and when will you stop
Trying to be something you’re,
So clearly not, you’re so clearly not
You keep trying to run, it’s cute you think you’re so fast
We’ll catch up, we always catch up
Nobody gets away without
You’d think you’d know that by now
Think you’d have it figured out, by now
I gotta hope that one day you can breathe easier than today
You’ll feel the weight getting lesser every day
That’s just a thing people say
You sit watching the clock
feel the rhythm of your heartbeat
It keeps speeding up, you’ll never catch up
With every decision, every choice
A weight impossible to hold
Have some patience, put things in perspective
Do you always have to make such a
Big deal, out of nothing
It’s clearly nothing
You’d think you’d know that by now
Think you’d have it figured out by now
I gotta hope that one day you can breathe easier than today
You’ll feel the weight getting lesser every day
That’s just a thing people say
You keep trying to face it, I see you struggling
Chasing some version, the one you that you wish you could be

Lies: One Through Seven

A little reminiscent of the more Rock-y stuff from NMB's Icons especially with Jason's singing and riffs, but just still catchy as anything. I get bits of Splice Here and Backroads stuck in my head and can't shift them. Hope for more, and some shows!

at this age reminded me of the naive optimism of high school. dent is more like the college student who tries to remain optimistic in the face of a world that contradicts itself at every turn.

Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks.
