the fall

A song about Freud.

Lyrics:
If I’m so smart and I’m so pretty,
Damn this town and damn this city;
You never give me anything that I want.
 
No one seems to really care.
They're just wholly unaware
Of all the blood and sweat I cry before dawn.
 
But you won’t understand
All the things that I am
Cause' I’m crazy in just too many ways.
 
But I get that little feeling
When my heart starts beating, lungs stop breathing,
All my fibers say to run away.

Count my little scars, I’ve got dozens down inside.
I come complete and invincible, behind my dirty imbecile.
All these things I’ve tried, boy: be cute, be dumb, be wise, be young.
So don’t tell me what to fear in the darkness in this atmosphere.

Love my mum and love my daddy,
Sure they messed me up but that is
Voices that they left inside of my head.
 
Darling, dearest, don’t you see?
I’m tough, I’m smart, I’m bourgeois,
And I’ll play out this lie until we’re all dead.
 
Am I good? Is all I could
Enough for you? 
 
I’m so scared
Of when and where
I’ll find the truth.

Awfully Apeelin'

Dirty Imbecile

Everybody's Lonely

A song about Mary.

Lyrics:
Mary's an animal, as sick as they come.
Taste of a cannibal, on top of her tounge.
She'll fill you with loving and drink out your blood.
She’s trying to kill me but I just want you.

What's a matter with the company jet?
What's a matter with those rolled cigarettes?
You still feel like a loner, you feel like a loner little lamb.
What's a matter with those ivory keys?
What's a matter with the life that you lead?
You still feel like a loner, you feel like a loner little lamb.

Can you feel anything? Are you more than a sensitive man?
There she is plain as day. She would love, oh, to take you away.
I just want you.

Cold-blooded, as cruel as can be;
Abuse her or you'll always need
Oh, to feel mary's loving, to feel mary's loving little lamb.
Stop running and fuel the disease.
Don't use her and face your own beast
Can you feel mary's loving, feel mary's loving, little lamb?

What’s a matter with your silicone dress?
Can’t you see you’ve made a terrible mess?
You still feel like a loner, you feel like a loner little lamb.

Concentrate

Mary

A song about unrequited love.

Lyrics:
After you leave,  I’ll be so alright, it’s true.
It’s not like I’ve got something grand to say to you, like

“You’ll be the only ever one like the only ever ones who came before”.
How could I ever be so dumb to believe I’d be the one you would adore.
 
I wanna be with you. I wanna be with you.
I wanna be just barely hangin’ on. 
I wanna be with you all of the time. I wanna be touched by you every night
I wanna be dancing, dreaming, falling, and weeping for you all of my life

Now your name makes all the life inside me shake. 
I guess God wants us apart for heaven’s sake. But

How could you ever really know? If you never look
You don’t know what you’ll find
I’ve got an effervescent glow
If you’d show me all the dark parts of your mind.
 
I wanna be with you. I wanna be with you.
I wanna be just barely hangin’ on. 
I wanna be with you all of the time. I wanna be touched by you every night.
I wanna be dancing, dreaming, falling, and weeping for you all of my life

I wanna be just barely hanging on when you make me lose control.

So Alright, Cool, Whatever

Still Feel.

Hurry Hurry

This is the second single off our new album, Strictly Platonic (6/28/2019 release).

In 2016, we saw a show at The Waiting Room Lounge in Omaha, NE. The headliner was great, but there was a man who did not watch a single second of their set; he was off to the side by himself, dancing his heart out (ballroom and swing-style dancing, mind you). It was hilarious and awe-inspiring. We ended up seeing this man at various event around Omaha, also dancing to his heart's content. This song is about him.
