"Indecision"

you say no one should die alone
but if i do would i place
my faith in the hands of your gods
and would i test out the odds
of a savior who died for my sins

or would i pass away
silently
would i take it all in
unravel engrossed in this mystery
savor these last breaths to breathe

yeah, you think that you know
and that's the reason you don't
because a hand on the wheel
feels like one on your throat
these were boundaries
are you willing to cross

am i gonna reconnect
with all my loved ones that are dead
or come to realize this was all in my head
was it all just emotion
and does it burn out today
and was the fact that i've lived
without laws or a script
just the strength of my will
or the most mortal of sins
and did i break down the walls
or shut all these doors
in the last of my moments
would i admit to my flaws
these were boundaries
are you willing to cross

yeah, you think that you know 
and that's the reason you don't
because a hand on the wheel
feels like one on your throat
yeah, you think that you know 
and that's the reason you don't
because a hand on the wheel
feels like one on your throat
these were boundaries
are you ready to cross

this is my last
will and testament
whether human or heaven-sent

3. Indecision 
you say no one should die alone / but if i do would i place / my faith in the hands of your gods / and would i test out the odds of a savior / who died for my sins / or would i pass away / silently / would i take it all in / unravel engrossed in this mystery / savor these last breaths to breathe / yeah you think that you know / and that’s the reason you don’t / because a hand on the wheel feels like one on your throat / these were boundaries / are you willing to cross / am i gonna reconnect with all my loved ones that are dead / or come to realize this was all in my head / was it all just emotion / and does it burn out today / and was the fact that i lived without laws or a script / just the strength of my will or the most mortal of sins / and did i break down the walls / or shut all these doors / in the last of my moments would i admit to my flaws / these were boundaries / are you willing to cross / yeah you think that you know / and that’s the reason you don’t / because a hand on the wheel feels like one on your throat / yeah you think that you know and that’s the reason you don’t / because a hand on the wheel feels like one on your throat / these were boundaries / are you ready to cross / this is my last / will and testament / whether human or heaven-sent

2. Burn For This 
you say the back door’s always open / leads to the place you’re always going / no you never get there / what you claim’s so far away / happiness in another place / time to bring it home / time to bring it home / work on through the dead of night / i’ll break my back ‘til i get this right / i fell in love at first sight / it burned out fast ’cuz it burns too bright / yes i know i’ll burn for this / yes i know that i’ll... / yes i know i’ll burn for this / yes i know that i’ll... / yes i know i’ll burn for this / time to bring it home / time to bring it home / kid i know what you’d say / breaks my heart when you talk that way / things unknown and things we’d state / when we both miscalculate / kid i know what you’d do / you’re beaten down you’re beaten black and blue / things unknown and things we’d state / when we both miscalculate / yes i know i’ll burn for this / yes i know that i’ll... / yes, i know i’ll burn for this / yes i know that i’ll... / yes i know i’ll burn for this / yes i know that I’ll... / yes i know i’ll burn for this / time to bring it home / time to bring it home / you say the back door’s always open / leads to the place you’re always going / no you never get there / what you claim’s so far away / happiness in another place / time to bring it home 

Burn For This

1. Don't Get Caught 
so please don’t close these doors / i’m not dead set on dying / these wounds and sores / have let the poison in / but these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / and if all you’d known was war / then you’ll just keep on fighting / the pain before / you let it all cave in / no this brain will never quit / no this brain will never quit / no this brain will never quit / so if you’re set / and that’s the plan / then you made your choice / and you’ll fall by your own hand / so then all in all / what if all’s the same / then you took your stance / and you’ll fall in the same place / in the same place / obeying all their laws / ignoring what they’re hiding / behind their walls / kid they said you’re born in sin / so you kneel and pray to it / so you kneel and pray to it / so you kneel and pray to it / and if all you feel is loss / then you’ll just keep on finding / despite the cost / you’ll be stealing just to win / yeah they’re stealing just to win / you’ll be stealing just to win / you’ll be stealing just to win / so if you’re set / and that’s the plan / then you made your choice / and you’ll fall by your own hand / well then all in all / what if all’s the same / then you took your stance / and you’ll fall in the same place / in the same place / so please don’t close these doors / i’m not dead set on dying / these wounds and sores / have let the poison in / but these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it / no these veins won’t shelter it

Correspondents is Frank Corva making music with his friends from around the world. The project was borne from a desire to write and perform music while traveling around the world. Frank had been playing in a punk band - Stay Alive - in the U.S. (New York City) but had to quit it as he began traveling throughout Europe, Africa and then North, Central & South America in 2009 for various personal and professional pursuits (these travels are documented at http://www.allintogethernowinternational.blogspot.com). Wherever Frank went, he had his guitar with him and would write and perform whenever and wherever possible. The Burn for This EP documents Frank reflecting on and coming to terms with some trying years of his life. After writing and performing the songs in various adaptations and forms in countries such as Venezuela, Ghana, Guatemala, Germany, Switzerland, The Czech Republic, Austria, France, The Netherlands, and the U.S., Frank finally recorded them. Having recruited an extremely talented group of friends from around the world to play on the record, the result is an acoustic guitar- and vocals-driven record featuring piano, violin, lead guitar, and back-up vocal accompaniments that are as precise as they are heartfelt. It was a cathartic experience to have the songs come to life on record and Frank is looking forward to sharing them with the new region of the world in which he is currently living – Asia. As a newfound resident of Tokyo, Japan, Frank has recently gotten his feet wet with his first few shows here. Inspired by the DIY subculture live house scene in Tokyo, Frank is looking forward to performing frequently and recording more music while living here.
