Why Don’ You? Why don’t you take the chance instead? Why don’t you be my friend out there? Everybody says you don’t care Everyone knows you have been mad Hiding in the dark Living in the spark Somewhere Laughing at the strangers you met Eating all the animals you fed Wash your hands before you forget The times we had the meat were so sad Hiding in the dark Living in the spark Somewhere Someday later I can see you And you can see me falling Like you said, in the end So take my money, take my clothes And take my stories, take my soul The game is over, I hope you Understand, or comprehend Thanks for having me here instead Before I go I need a recess Waiting for my last friend to come back Looking for a new train on the track Hiding in the dark Living in the spark Somewhere

Lonely bird sings a lullaby Saying this will be the day that I die All of you who ran away Don’t bother coming back and say goodbye The night we had a glass of wine Finding meanings right above the sky When the smell fills the air No measures in this world can save a life The man replies Another day you turn around No one gives attention to your smile Walking into a neon room Facing down the bed and skipped my mind Head down to the street for smokes A trash can caught on fire as people talks No one was running away and stayed The sky is blue as the bird faded out to grey The man replies

about

A record with two sides. Co-released by our friends at Sweaty & Cramped.

"...This record is loaded with two new compositions created during an intense period of writing and recording, a period of clashing ideas together to form new thoughts.

Side A's title track starts off with a stack of notes moving in unison, before launching into an easy groove best suited for driving with the hood popped.

Side B takes a darker turn - one that you'll have to find out yourself."

- Rocky Sum @ Sweaty & Cramped
