Lyrics:
I've been swallowing the words i'm pondering,
the nights are my days and i'm seeing the world as a melody,
and it's not fictional.

I've been colouring the thoughts i'm wondering,
the worlds on my walls and the pictures have poured out in front of me,
and it's not fictional. 

I'll paint you a boat then i'll push you along,
lets un-batten the hatches and jump out to join everyone. 

See that star, it isn't too far, 
If it's in your heart, lets make it be ours. 

Don't look back, it's only a memory,
and i've been told - to never feel old...

We'll ferry from island to island for free,
then we'll sing and we'll dance and we'll bury the book in the sea. 

See that star, it isn't too far,
If it's in you heart - lets make it be ours. 

Make it Be Ours

Lay me down so I can sleep 
My heart is full, my knees are weak 
Though we were drunk and howling 
We found ourselves a little peace 
In the night 

Oh no 
We're all goners 
White snow 
Black water 

Hold my head inside your hands 
Tell me how much fun you had 
You ain't much for making plans 
I'm finding out that ain't so bad 

Put a smile on people, we've made it home safe 
As I slowly fall asleep there's still so much I want to say 
I will rest so peacefully, tomorrow's on its way 
I'm content and I am grateful to be one in this place 
In this chaos in this madness we've made ourselves a home 
I get carried away quickly but it seems I'm not alone 
In the evening we were floating we were drifting with the snow 
I'll soon be dreaming of that feeling, too soon I'll let it go 

Wake me up so I can see (oh no) 
The path we carved throughout the streets (we're all goners) 
Though we were lost an wandering (white snow) 
We found ourselves a little peace (black water) 
In the night 

Let me hold onto your hands (okay) 
And tell you how it is I know (alright) 
That things will never go as planned (long days) 
And that's how they're supposed o go (goodnight) 

Put a smile on people, we've made it home safe 
As I slowly fall asleep there's still so much I want to say 
I will rest so peacefully, tomorrow's on its way 
I'm content and I am grateful to be one in this place 
In this chaos in this madness we've made ourselves a home 
I get carried away quickly but it seems I'm not alone 
In the evening I was floating I was drifting with the snow 
I'll soon be dreaming of that feeling, too soon I'll let it go 

We're all goners!

"Wide-Eyed" was the first single from, and is the second track on, our second album, "A Folded Letter." The song was recorded in November, 2015 in a cabin at Lake Wallenpaupack, Pennsylvania.

Written and recorded by Brian Curry, Steve Shimchick, and Jeff Petescia. 
Kevin Lucero - Cello
Ralph Nicastro - Mixing
Alan Douches - Mastering

Lyrics:
People, lost in the haze, defeat their own lives, it seems
Aimless, wandering wide-eyed, I was bound to love again

I will do you no harm, I won't fly
I will do you no harm, I will try

Darling, hazel-eyed mountain song, my soul longs for you
Running, I wasn't gone for long, I've grown all for you

I will do you no harm, I won't fly
I will do you no harm, I will try 
I could die in your arms, I could die
I could die in your arms, I could die

What if I lose all sight and ambition?
What if my heart weakens my vision?
What if all I need is right in front of me? 

I could die in your arms, I could die
I could die in your arms, I could die
I could die in your arms, I could die
I could die in your arms, I could die

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the night shore
In words worth speaking
You said silence means more
Than talking cheaply

I stole the words of a great loved
writer I read once
In the backseat scheming
how to make you love me

And on the night floor
Your self worth wasting
By the morning adored
Then back to aching

I hold the urn
of a past love
And it’s pouring out on me

In the black deep
Seeing how to make you love me

Lyrics:

Waiting for the summer sun, it’s a long way from home

Wasted breath, and now my head’s a mess, I’m stuck
Searching my mind, for a place and a time
Nothing left, I’ve got an empty chest, to keep my thoughts in line
Face to face and I’m fine

Oh, you’re standing in the snow
Your icy lake below, where we froze
Our troubles and our souls
We’ve got nowhere left to go
We’ve got nothing but the glow, to expose
The rubble and our ghosts

I wake from rest, to find what I knew best
Within your story told
You confessed, the winds, they had you stressed
We watched it all unfold

Oh, you’re standing in the snow
Your icy lake below, where we froze
Our troubles and our souls
We’ve got nowhere left to go
We’ve got nothing but the glow, to expose
The rubble and our ghosts

Oh, the season may be changing
But summer, we’re still waiting

Waiting for the summer sun, it’s a long way from home

From Rest

Lyrics:

Open days they go...
From the moment you were old enough to dream and hope
We could see a future in your eyes, but sometimes it would change…

I can tell you that you worry when you run that way,
You run that way back home
To the comfort of all comfort

Voices calling out your name but you can only
Peer through the blinds as the passage of time consumes you

I can tell you that you worry when you run that way,
You run that way back home
To the comfort of all comfort

I can only sigh, I can only sigh

When You Run

Lyrics:
Slowly, waiting for a chance to tell the blind
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)
It’s lonely, moving my own hands to change the time
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)

Lowly, hidden by the flaws in your design
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)

I’m solely rusted, in a state to feel a shine
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)

Stone bleak, colors on the books you left behind
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)
The stairs creak, crooked in a site that once aligned
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)
Bone weak, buried underneath a web of vines
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)
Why seek, when you seem to show what I will find?
(There’s another involved, there’s a pain in these walls)

They say it’s no use, revealing what you’re feeling
When it all ends too soon
You’re far away, in disarray

The dust just accrues, you’re crumbling with the ceiling
And you watch as your room
Fades into gray and falls away

There’s a fear in these halls

These walls have no use, revealing what they’re feeling
When it all ends too soon
You’re far away, in disarray

The dust just accrues, you’re crumbling with the ceiling
And you watch as your room
Fades into gray and falls away

Lyrics:

Oh where do you begin?
Who can say what the astray will win?
A thread of the dread cut thin
You’re testing destiny with what’s under skin
To get through, with just two

Two deep breaths to breathe,
Between a daze of your thoughts beneath
Let them weave, lead
Weave, lead

Know the grim isn’t a fright, 
When on a whim into the night
Twisting in the morning when you come home alone
Twisting in the morning when you’re coming, you come come home

No, the grim isn’t a fright,
When on a swim into the white
Twisting in the morning when you come home alone
Twisting in the morning when you’re coming, you come come home

Know the grim isn’t a fright,
When on a limb, setting your sight
Twisting in the morning when you come home alone
Twisting in the morning when you’re coming, you come come home

To get through, with just two

Deep Breaths

Lyrics:

Darling, in your book of leather, tethered to your chest
There’s a folded letter
Written without rest

Twisting my own words, I wander, trying to convey
This hidden truth, I’ve pondered
Fearing to focus my days

All of my bittersweet lies, my blank smiles and longing goodbyes
Fault of a cowardly mind, I’ve lost all, waiting for signs
Waiting for signs

Desperate in this haze of vapor, words are aligned and unsure
But it’s just ink and paper
Writing to render my core

All of my bittersweet lies, my blank smiles and longing goodbyes
Faults of a cowardly mind, I’ve lost all, waiting for signs
Waiting for signs

Now in the night, how I long for you
Me, foolish pride, and my forlorn truth

All of my bittersweet lies, my blank smiles and longing goodbyes
Faults of a cowardly mind, I’ve lost all, waiting for signs
Waiting for signs

Ink and Paper

Lyrics:
Caught, I've lost, all my love 
Bound, unwound, all my lust

Sometimes I wonder if that car was supposed to take my life
And when I fell through the water, were my lungs supposed to fill with ice?
All that I've ever known, I've learned but never grown 
I'm never gonna be found, 
All my love

Dust, torn up, all my trust
Drowned, pulled down, all I've found 
Fight, find light, for this life

Sometimes I wonder if that car was supposed to take my life
And when I fell through the water, were my lungs supposed to fill with ice?
All that I've ever known, I've learned but never grown 
I'm never gonna be found, 
All my love

Sometimes I wonder if my worry's gonna drown my flame
And when my chest starts to tighten, will I always find myself to blame?

All that I've ever shown, false face and broken bones
Feigning my strength as I fall 
All that I dream to hold, waits for a truth untold 
I'll never know where I'm bound, 
But I'll be found

Reclamation
