What's On My Mind

[lyrics]

her soft lips against my skin
baby ill show you a life of sin
vampire love that'll never end
my love for you is not pretend

so baby are you with me
tell me do you love me
feeling like a lost boy
could really use youre company

her soft bones against my chest
the way she made me so fucking obsessed

[glitch breakdown]

i just want to be your lover
i just want to be the one for you
i just want to be your lover
i just want to be the one for you

her soft lips against my skin
baby ill show you a life of sin
vampire love thatll never end
my love for you is not pretend

so baby are you with me
tell me do you love me
feeling like a lost boy
could really use youre company

her soft bones against my chest
the way she made me so fucking obsessed

[glitch breakdown]

i just want to be your lover
i just want to be the one for you

Hopeless Mess
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

I woke up wondering about the mess we're in
How long we would last and where we had been
I had laid down thinking that the world would end
I looked at the shirt that I was going to mend
But it don't matter no more, I can't find my jeans

Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
What a hopeless mess we are in

I looked outside my soggy tent and nothing could be seen
It was all smoke and mud where my home had been
My car, down the field, upside down in a ditch
My senator came by, and said, "ain't life a bitch"
I got my gun and that bastard ain't been seen

Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
What a hopeless mess we are in

I heard the news and all the world is going insane
Everyone took their minds and shipped them on a train
While we die of thirst, we poison the water
Our children will starve, but it just don't matter
I would get up and help, but it is all in vain

Yeah, yeah, oh yeah
What a hopeless mess we are in

I Still Call You Mine

Cotton Candy - [SoundCloud Exclusive Track]

I'm glad I don't think about you the way

Lyrics:
They don't want me x 3

The problem's not inside of them, it's me
how can I compete?
there's no question I'm not on the tree
I know they don't want me.

Don't know why I get my hopes up, better put the ropes up.
I mean it's not like me to care, shit like that gets me nowhere.
getting close to you always gets me scared, 
I don't want this mind of mine to think of you and think I care.
then I'll feel my heart beat
darkness in my mind creeps
then I'll forget, till the day I can feel regret
compared x 3 to all of those around 
I'm scared x3 I know I'll let you down
sick of lying, still I'm trying, being with you feels like I'm dying.

I know somethings wrong with me
is it how I look or my anxiety?
I've been struck with this ugly curse
my God it hurts!
The problem's not inside of them, it's me
how can I compete?
there's no question I'm not on the tree
I know they don't want me. 

I'm glad that you're happy too, I mean I wanna be happy with you. 
should I tell you? I wouldn't dare. I'll keep to myself it isn't fair...
I'll put distance between us and tell a lie
I promise I'll never burden you with how I feel inside
Made me feel like a creep
swear it isn't that deep
may be down on my luck, swear I'm not just fucked up
despair x3 sometimes it's all I feel
don't care x3 I don't deserve to heal.
sick of lying, still im trying, being with you feels like im dying.

I know somethings wrong with me
is it how I look or my anxiety?
I've been struck with this ugly curse
my God it hurts!
The problem's not inside of them, it's me
how can I compete?
there's no question I'm not on the tree
I know they don't want me. 

wish they knew how I feel inside
woder how I look through their eyes
would they even care if I died?
would they ever wish that I was still alive?
the greatest burden I can give is me
That's why I know that they don't want me...
They don't want me...

I know somethings wrong with me
is it how I look or my anxiety?
I've been struck with this ugly curse
my God it hurts!
The problem's not inside of them, it's me
how can I compete?
there's no question I'm not on the tree
I know they don't want me.

Ugly Curse

Stuck in musty hotel rooms running midnight escape routes through hazy hallways. Every day in a new town, every night with a new crowd. Within this mid tempo indie rock offering, Atomic Tom invites you into a spirited and deceptively candid snapshot of tour life. Gritty guitar riffs and punchy synth bass lines weave their way through a head bobbing drum beat. “Heroes” is the perfect second act from their upcoming album and they’re just getting started.
