about

The third single from our upcoming eight track EP, "Escalators," available September 30!

lyrics

Now is not the time to pretend we have morals
This isn’t a religion
If it is, then call me god
We can write our own commandments, but that only starts problems
Plus I’d rather hear the stories
I go swimming in your thoughts

‘Cause the day I left the suburbs I would plod through the fear
How the hell were you to be with me if you weren’t even here?
But then as the veil was lifted and the color was renewed
I knew so long as I knew you there was nothing we couldn’t do

So let’s go throw this motherfucker down
‘Cause I’m always gonna wear your motherfucking crown

This is not the time to pretend we have boundaries
If it lives in your desire then it might as well be true
Who am I as your guy to asphyxiate your power?
Plus the devil in me loves it when you walk in his shoes

While I’m waiting for your letters I can guess every word
All that’s strange and absurd
My ambition’s undeterred
‘Cause even far away I can say that I’m still your little bird
Like Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt, your brainwaves go overheard
