Sucker

"Afterthought" embodies the feelings of a hopeless romantic reminiscing about the way things used to be. It's easy to ignore the worst moments in a relationship.  Past memories will always be there to haunt you and cause one to think what they could've done differently. 

"Afterthought" is composed of dreamy guitar riffs and melodies, a strong running bass line, and arena-booming drums. The eerie elements of the song are traced by the vocals, synths, and further complimented by other instruments.  Members of the band convey their vocal and instrumental abilities throughout the song.

Archipelago Of Dreams

My favorite Prince song, from Purple Rain. I love electronic music but almost never work in that medium.  This is one of those time I did. 

Take Me With You

(Omarow)
Hey
I don't care what you do what you say
You'll be outta my mind anyway
Say I'm stupid say I'm useless
Yeah I'm great
I'm doing great yeah
No way
I can see in my mind that you're fake
Got a problem that you'll take to the grave
I don't wanna hit you up anyway
Keep your stupid lies out of my name

(Omarow)
Pick it up
Think of us
Last night we spent in the pickup truck
Counterpoint, forget it all 
Drunk last night i forgot i called
I don't wanna waste my time with you
I just wanna waste my time with someone at all
I don't wanna take my time with you
I just wanna skip to being involved

(Luxx)
hey
i heard you’re doing great
do you miss me anyway way way way
i hope you miss me anyway
pull me closer to the static 
i’ve been chasing problematics 
you said i was so dramatic 
my reflection looks so tragic 
turned my love into an addict 
you were poison so emphatic 
left me broken so erratic 
buried pain beneath the fabric
hey
i heard you’re doing great
do you miss me anyway
i hope you miss me anyway way way way

(Omarow)
Pick it up
Think of us
Last night we spent in the pickup truck
Counterpoint, forget it all 
Drunk last night i forgot i called
I don't wanna waste my time with you
I just wanna waste my time with someone at all
I don't wanna take my time with you
I just wanna skip to being involved
Pick it up
Think of us
Last night we spent in the pickup truck
Counterpoint, forget it all 
Drunk last night i forgot i called
I don't wanna waste my time with you
I just wanna waste my time with someone at all
I don't wanna take my time with you
I just wanna skip to being involved

hey w/ Luxx [prod. everestdidthis]

Dim Your Light - Sam Plecker

A light is fading out
I rush to feel it
Beckoning the sound 
Of an open age
Never had I thought 
I’d have to leave it
Never had I guessed 
I would remain

I hold my breath
Gold rush to wait for it
Slow down, savor 
What chills and burns

You give it all you can 
And ask for nothing
Break inside to mend 
What bleeds your days
You wait for all that was 
As close as it was far

I hold my breath
Gold rush to wait for it
Slow down, savor
What chills and burns

You’ve seen a face 
Falling out of the dark
To mother a whisper
So half of your mind 
Can dare to drift off
As the other stays 
Always wondering,
Watching through the thunder 
For a sign of all the 
Monsters in the rain

"Hey, hey, are you in good hands?"
"Say no to drugs"
"And stay like it was the plan all along" 
"Hey, hey, are you in good hands?"
"I wish I could stay
Like it was the plan all along"

You said goodbyes 
Never meant a thing
But I started guessing  
Though we’d gathered our best
It was known for a while
That all through the night 
You’d stayed wondering,
Haunted by old dreams 
You could not share
In fear you’d throw them all away

"Hey, hey, are you in good hands?"
"Say no to drugs"
"And stay like it was the plan all along" 
"Hey, hey, are you in good hands?"
"I wish I could stay
Like it was the plan all along"

Wish I Could Stay

From the Leaky Sealing (EP). Available everywhere May 7, 2021 on Park The Van. More info: https://okeydokeyband.bandcamp.com/

Lyrics:

My soul had gone a’driftin 
And far away it hid.
And I know this thing can be so twisted
This love we call it our friend.

Oh are you up now?
Are you sleeping?
I’ve been laying here all morning.
Are you up now?
I’m ready, ready for this day to begin.

And in that classic depiction of love and all of it’s joy
There’s no room for a long haired fool in there!
No room for a long haired boy.

Then I found myself fighting.
Fighting with the one that I need,
Cause there was some kind of story here
But I don’t think that it’s about me.

Oh are you up now?
Are you sleeping?
I’ve been laying here all morning.
Are you up now?
I’m ready, ready for this day to begin.

And I had it written up inside a theory
That I’d never feel this way again.
We were young and it was ok
To spread our ashes on the windowpane.
You’re love, it brightens me up.
Wonder how long it’s gonna be this way.

Oh are you up now?
Are you sleeping?
I’ve been laying here all morning.
Are you up now?
I’m ready, ready for this day to begin.

Oh are you up now?
Are you sleeping?
I’ve been laying here all morning.
Are you up now?
I’m ready, ready for this day to begin.

Etc.
