Scott Munro This album ebbs and flows between melodic hardcore, melodramatic indie-rock, and post-hardcore styles n a way that sounds
dynamic and natural. If this album was an animal, it'd be a poison dart frog. Favorite track: Honeymoon.

Is this where we belong? Didn't stop to think, what if I’m wrong? Our bodies embrace the world While this resolution unfolds A rising action, predestined fate An unknown threshold, supernatural aid Was it my desire to be right or a fear to embrace the light? Was this all part of the plan? I’m a bit partial to believing again What’s the true moral compass of man? We’re encountering our own ephemerality The world’s too complex, only answers I can see Make me believe What’s left when what we loved has gone? I’m just trying to please you, appease you Leave you all alone, alone Parallel, harmonies Nietzsche, Socrates Was this all part of the plan? I’m a bit partial to believing again What’s the true moral compass of man? We’re questioning our existentiality Is this where my mind begins? A sin is a sin is a sin is a sin Oh how, could I achieve such bliss? And then to wonder, why I exist Oh how, could I achieve such bliss? And then to wonder, why I exist

Push it into my veins, needles leave dark stains Body becomes a brick, never been this sick There’s no way you’d ever know Just how far I’m willing to go Yell at me while I’m lying here, ‘till they give the all clear Tell me things about my body man ‘cause I have no fear Third times the charm for depression, ‘till they answer all my questions How many times have you done this man, I have a confession No one knows I found a reason to hope Botched sutures, aim the blame Meet a pretty nurse, makes me feel worse Rip me into shreds, sell all of my pieces to science Get me hooked on this shit, makes me recommit Having faith in myself, when there’s no one else It’s nice to keep nearby, it’s nice it gets me high Stop me, stop me from bleeding, I should, I should be healing I won’t, you don’t know, Keep stabbing my skin, keep stabbing my skin, until it’s in Yell at me while I’m lying here, ‘till they give the all clear Tell me things about my body man ‘cause I have no fear Third times the charm for depression, ‘till they answer all my questions How many times have you done this man, I have a confession No one knows, I found a reason to hope Bathe me in a sea of feeling A pain I’ve felt so long Decisions, embrace them Was there more I could have done? (Isolation, your creation)

Fuck with me while I’m tripping, might find that I’m losing This place in despair, I’ll eat my girl’s hair Subject self-identity, I ain't got no strategy Deeper meanings, false-hope feelings This might be my last call, I’m real good at ski-ball Intertwined context, Calvin Klein, subtext Attaching just to separate, this shit better alleviate Reality-testing medicine, my own sense-perception Is this comparative mythology? And was it all worthwhile? You’re sitting alone, minding your own Gaps in space, between thoughts They aren't yours, they’ll never be yours My own sense-perception, got Leo’d, inception Can’t wait ‘till I’m home again A transitioned win, looks like there’s something here A view to my other sin, that’s been my biggest fear Catch a flower in full bloom, blossomed before my eyes It makes me nervous too, an undeserving witness to a life My own sense-perception, got Leo’d, inception Can’t wait ‘till I’m home No one’s around to talk me down No one comes out the same My own sense-perception, got Leo’d, inception Can’t wait ‘till I’m home Don’t talk about, when we were together I placed my mines, I’m aware of the weather Does this compare, to your other endeavors? I sat by, watched my soul destroyed I’m own worst nightmare, who even am I?

Downcast 04:44
Gone so soon Life has no light without you Take your time, I’ll be alright I remember painting in your room I'm drowning in the space that you left Doesn’t begin to describe A room alive, a life destroyed No beating heart, inside a space so dark A mother’s depression, a long life ahead Now 12 years gone, we try and move on This boy sits by, his mother cries God, save me from this nightmare This horror you brought me He just looked on by, in complete disdain While this suffering was met with more rain Take your time, I’ll be alright I remember painting in your room What if your happiest was in your past? I’m frigid, I’m cold; I’m dying alone Shadow in my mind, I didn't pray enough Take your time, take your time I didn't pray enough, pray enough Take your time, take your time You weren't meant for this world Take your time, I’ll be alright I remember painting in your room What if your happiest was in your past? I’m frigid, I’m cold; I’m dying alone Shadow in my mind, I didn't pray enough

I’m a simple visionary idealist, With a lot of temporary desire for success, Seems to always be a curiosity as to why, These intentions couldn’t possibly be anymore solidified, Focused on and wandered off in search of sight, Maybe I’m not good enough for this kind of bright light, Sun radiates on my skin cause I still yearn, Instead of reaching for passions I’ll know what it means to burn Self-reflection mixed with alcohol (I almost caught you), I saved myself by avoiding the fall (I almost caught you believing in me), Misdirection’s make for fond farewells (I almost caught you), Should we say we threw away the dreams ourselves? (I almost caught you believing in me) Old buildings and worn brick walls, young people inside, Caffeine that caps our youth, what more could we hide? Jealousy strikes the closest hearts, but I’m not the type, Someone else got the forbidden fruit, what’s it supposed to taste like? Question my everything, mistrust in decency, I used to call you my friend, I think I’m trying my best, And is anybody worried at all, I don’t think so, That their dreams might be nothing at all, I won’t believe no, Gave up my devotion, the notion was stolen from me, Gave up in believing, achieving is nothing Self-reflection mixed with alcohol (I almost caught you), I saved myself by avoiding the fall (I almost caught you believing in me), Misdirection’s make for fond farewells (I almost caught you), Should we say we threw away the dreams ourselves? (I almost caught you believing in me) I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold to ourselves Take one look, did we miss our chance? Safe and sound in my mind, These beliefs won’t make it to light Self-reflection mixed with alcohol (I almost caught you), I saved myself by avoiding the fall (I almost caught you believing in me), Misdirection’s make for fond farewells (I almost caught you), Should we say we threw away the dreams ourselves? (I almost caught you believing in me) I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold to ourselves

Bues Cues 05:10
We give the same speech Is this really letting go? You only like me when I’m inebriated (inebriated) How am I supposed to know? Ooo, don’t hesitate Oh, heavenly affection, it’s such a tease Where do we go from here? That couldn't be more clear Oh, jealous the illusion, I love the taste, Something is wrong, this moment has gone, Show me some empathy You never said why I feel like an afterthought I’ll sing for you, just this once (just this once) Wish I could play your heart strings one more time Ooo, I’m desperately yours We lie to ourselves Forget the reasons why Come to me, I miss you now Maybe we could talk somehow Late night calls don’t go down well Lonely halls, dreams of dependencies You never said why Wish we’d talk more, but you’re seeing some guy Late night lovers remind (remind) Talking emotions, I need you by my side My body is sensitive, my vision has gone Our hearts are so tinder, how could we move on? How could we move on?

Coquette 03:59
Stop, wait awhile, how’ve you been? How did you end up where you are? Suddenly, violently And with complete disdain Lie awake, question why Did I think this through at all? Finally, cowardly You feared it far too long Did you change the way you look at me? It’s something new, I’m not used to Stop, wait awhile, how’ve you been? How did you end up where you are? Eagerly, longingly With a desire to waste away For here, for now I might despair Where to move? Who to choose? I’ll have to show you how I feel Did you care at all? Did you change the way you look at me? It’s something new, I’m not used to, Something’s here beside me, must be the hypocrisy I just wanna feel the love you have in store I can read your lies, you can’t ignore I just wanna watch you burn

Honeymoon 04:06
Am I indifferent? Are you irate? Your mind is an enigma, let me cogitate Our lives, in depth derives Consolation from an act that has us splitting at our sides Is there justice, for judgments so strong? Maybe if we knew what we’d done was wrong Are you staying? Should I work on my phrasing? Is this even worth saving? Blegh! Your envious voice was all a choice made not by those Who would oppose, juxtapose without contrast Might have a plan to understand your feelings Only if you reprieve your actions I see the sunken face of a man I used to call my friend In time I’ve been blinded by your paradox of idolizing You’re spinning your wheels and you’re not phased at all I must insist, I must insist, I must insist, I don’t like this Read a bible, run some miles Hit a slope, do some coke Visit places, leave me faceless Fuck a mime, shoot a guy Locust, no vest, shit coming outta my chest Mapquest, out west, who’s the uninvited guest? Infest, expressed, always saying how I need rest You’re blessed, I jest, ask yourself now who’s best dressed? Despite the things you've said to me I know that’s how you really feel Is this hypocrisy? Cause I might like to satisfy these preconceived notions of me Is this confrontation? You keep on wounding yourself now that there’s no one else Our honeymoon is all but gone

Nomads 06:03
Is this where we’re supposed to be? I got addicted to this fast Am I still who I was before? Our happiest was in the past Were we able to touch our dreams? You couldn't possibly move on And change the way you looked at me? Our honeymoon is all but gone Fuck displacement, fuck a livelihood Have you noticed we’re all addicted to attention? These ridiculed strategies we choose, Make living our lives so much harder, think we could live longer? You walk taller, watched your dreams get smaller Can’t comprehend or understand these distractions My hair’s longer, numbers got larger, could we hold a recount? Help guide me through a vast ocean of you, Let’s go back to the way things were Let’s go back to the way things never were All these words apply Do you still hold tight to the feelings you fronted? Cause in my mind, that’s what I thought, I wished, I wanted With a taste of illusion and the beauty of bliss Did we ever find out how we choose to exist? Help guide me through a vast ocean of you We were left here all alone, made to live on sand and stone Everyone you love has left with everything you own I destroyed the world, I destroyed the world so you would love it more, you would love it more I destroyed the world, I destroyed the world so you would love it more, you would love it more I destroyed the world, I destroyed the world so you would love it more, you would love it more I destroyed the world, I destroyed the world so you would love it more, you would love it more I destroyed the world, I destroyed the world so you would love it more, you would love it more Our lives aren't over, they’re just brand new Did time seem slower when I was with you?
