So, lots of different negative stuff has been going on as of late and I needed to vent badly.. so this is what I came up with in the past 24 hours. It did help a ton I'll say...not really 1 main topic I covered, just kinda was all over the place to sum up my emotions (hense the name). Kinda wrote/recorded/mixed it on the spot. I know there's some mixing issues, I haven't done this in like a year. Plus on top of that, being as digital as making this was, I wanted to give some form of realism to help the emotion of the song. No layered leads, no layered vocals. Vocals, my voice started giving out mid recording cause I haven't done this in so long, but I kept it to keep that raw emotion and I like that I did. IDK what genre this is, I guess Post-Hardcore. .I'll let you guys decide. Um.. in case anyone asked I did 100 percent of this my self (yes the drums are digital btw). 

Lyrics:

What does this mean? Why do I feel like this all day, it doesnt quit
Like I do (like i do) .. oh my fucking god
this isn't....... fun, like I like to discuss, what, is eating, at my soul
but everyone wants to know, its a bitch that I can't even cry alone, in my home
these walls are too shallow, so maybe I need to go
but there's no one left to take me in 
Everyone is just sick of what i do to them.... its not my intentions.. I promise.. please stay don't go away

as of late I've been having all these visions
of whats its like when i've shaken these afflictions
but then i get caught up in what isn't
and leave out all things I've been givin
at least I mean I haven't fallen to addiction
at least I've kept that bout myself so i'm livin
the same way its the same me its just that what I dont have has taken over me 

I will beat this, one day, just please don't give up on me
I can be an issue, I can be a burden but please don't close that curtain
sometimes I need space, sometimes I need to talk
sometimes I need to sleep, just to end these thoughts
but now i need to know who i'm talkin to, cause i don't know whos even here

^tons of typos . .Cba to change it atm.. well enjoy

To Sum It Up

The Debut EP of Portage, Indiana based band Fry Scream For Ice Cream. Fry Scream For Ice Cream consist of only Chris Morrison.

This EP is not exactly supposed to flow, it is to experiment and give ideas of the music that will be explored in the future. The interludes being the more exaggerated version

NOTE .. I recommend you download the songs on either the download links here or via this link https://www.dropbox.com/s/iy6vrywdqxbyjim/Fry%20Scream%20For%20Ice%20Cream.zip?dl=0   .. I say this since the sound quality is far more better on the MP3 download than the compressed version uploaded here.  Plus if you download the link I just gave, it come with backing info on the EP! Please note the sound quality on track 5 is not as good as the rest of the EP. This is due to me not having the heart to change the song from its original version due to the meaning behind the song...so there are a few mistakes.

Consider it a standalone single/ B-side for my next (TBA) EP. Demo'd a lot of songs for the next release, this song didn't quite fit in the final track listing but I liked it so much I thought I'd put it out, as it's darker sound previews that of which to come. Song is a bit rough around the edges production wise, but that's ok cause the song calls for it. Wanted it to be pretty "raw" sounding so to say.

*****Important***** I suggest downloading for best sound quality. Soundcloud compresses the song A LOT that makes it sound fairly bad. So I'd download it for best quality! 

Lyrics
Tell me, how it feels
To wake up and be excited
About the day
How do you say?
That this day's gonna go well
I'm glad I got out of bed
And don't think pain will exist
And don't crawl back in, instead
Tell me how you do it
Tell me
Cause I'm out
Of motivation
I sold my stock
At an unfair price

I know I'm hard to deal with, but it's obvious I'm dead inside

I wake up and pain comes, these vibrant sunbeams blind my eyes
Birds chirping, kids playing, oh how I want to cut my ears out
The mailman's smiling, he's happy that he has a job
My one friend, is praying, at least they believe in a god
I see all, these couples, it's obvious that their in love
My old friends, all make plans, I think I'd kill to have someone
But this is, my life now, honestly just let me sleep
Who cares if, it's 5 PM, just let me dream.

What It Means To Be Awake

TURN YOUR VOLUME LOW. 

I'll delete this in a day or so I just think it sounds cool. I don't use any synths or anything on this EP but I'm looking for a background sound on a song for filler so im messing with sounds. Oscillated my mixer into a flanger pedal into a delay pedal. Added some reverb for shits and gigs and now you get a creepy synth.
