about

Hello Friends,

We'd like to thank you for your continued support as well as the patience you've had with us over the past several months. We've been quietly hard at work on our debut EP entitled "/DIVIDER" that will be released on November Seventh. We're very proud of it and terribly anxious to share it with you. In the mean time, we've decided to make the album version of "Swan Song" available for free in high quality MP3 format as a small thank you for everything.

lyrics

THE CAT SCRATCHED IT'S WAY
OUT OF THE BAG AND
LANDED IN OUR LAPS
SO WE TIED HIM UP.
BEAT HIM UP.
DRESSED HIM UP.
SOLD HIM FOR CASH.
WE'VE GOT HEADLINES THAT READ
"WE'VE GOT PEOPLE TO PLEASE"
SO TUNE OUT IF THIS FEELS INCONVENIENT
THE MADMEN KEEP COMIN' ROUND
THEY KEEP SETTING THEIR TRAPS

HEY/PUT A SMILE ON FOR ME.
AWAY/I DON'T WANNA SEE.

LOCKED DOWN.
DIZZED UP.
SHAKEN UP.
TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF
THE HELICOPTERS CIRCLING OVER OUR HEADS
AND I CAN'T
SO LIGHTS OUT
NOBODIES HOME
TURN THE LOCKS ON THE DOORS
NEVER PICK UP THE PHONE

I TRY TO CLOSE MY EYES BUT I CAN'T
SO I'LL DO WHAT I'M TOLD
COZ' A MAN WITH A PLAN LIVING
LIFE OFF IN LA-LA-LAND SAYS SO

I AM LITTLE WHITE LIE
HIDING YOUR FOOTSTEPS WHEREVER YOU GO.
I AM CAGED ANIMAL
CROSSING THE WIRES IN THE BACK OF YOUR SKULL.
