Lyrics:

Another let down, the same disappointment 
It must be me, it must be my choices 
It's all so hard when no one can see 
What is living deep inside of me 

It's this fever 
It's a creeper 
It's been around as long as I can recall 
Depression 
Brings me down again 
Further down 
Take me further down 

What will it take to defeat it? 
This lonliness is so defeating 

When will it all become enough 
For me to jump? 

Can you not see just how much of me 
That I burned up just to bring you love? 
Rose you have thorns, and you hide them well 
But this burning prick is like show and tell 

And now it's clear to me 
You were draining me 
Sapping my energy 
With no return 
And now look at me 
Ms. Oh-So-Mighty 
I tried so hard and have nothing to show 

You were a bitch from the beginning 
Congratulations, you are winning 

But you have not won 
I am not done.

I Am Not Done *Hidden Track*

Lyrics:

What can I say? It's hard to know 
What do I do? Where do I go? 
It's never been easy, how could I think it's easy 
To know? 

It's gone away, never again to show 
Stupidly I begin to slow 
I swear I've told me I'd find the right way 
To go 

It's alright, is it alright? 
Call it quits for the night 

Throw it away, it's garbage. You know it 
How could you think otherwise? 
It's never been the way that I've seen it 
In my mind 
Is this the end? What will become of it? 

It's alright, is it alright? 
Call it quits for the night 
It's alright, is it alright? 
It's alright, is it alright? 

It's alright, is it alright? 
Call it quits for the night 
It's alright, is it alright? 
It's alright, is it alright?

Know

Lyrics:

Stay focused, I've noticed 
It's not as simple as I've made it seem 
This stream of consciousness 
Is not easy to dam 

And I've been in my head, wondering 
When this bliss will remain 
The stains of my sorrows 
Are not easy to bleach 

When I say I've got it, I don't think I've got it 
When I say I've got it, I don't think I've got it 

Degredation, now no patience 
I've always hated to see me this way 
What's in me? Mediocrity 
Is all the remains 

And it's not like I forgot about this side of me 
Though it'd be nice to have it erased 
This dream that I chase 
Can seem out of reach 

I swore that I could prevent the fall 
How could I forget the weight of it all?

Lyrics:

Couldn't say goodbye 
Couldn't believe 
Hasn't been a day 
Since you left me 

Now I wonder why 
Now I cease 
Now your time has come 
It's upset me 

Cause you were my Buddy 

Kind of an asshole 
Kinda lazy 
You lived so stubbornly 
You're now appeased 

And you were my Buddy 
You were my pal 
Yeah you were my Buddy 
You're better off now

Lyrics:

A feeling stops me 
A person in the crowd 
Do you know about me? 
Have you heard my sound? 

Could ya do without me? 
Are ya without a care? 
Do you listen to me? 
Do ya like to see me there? 

I can't get away from the things that I say 
I'm disapproving of the man that I am 
I'm walking away from yesterday 
Not easy to do, but easy to say 

The feeling wakes me 
It changes my day to day 
A new beginning 
A chance to change my ways 

That feeling saved me 
It keeps me on the way 
To a better ending 
A path that will be paved

Lyrics:

Then she says that we can't be friends 
And it hurts to say, but some things must end 
The way we loved each other was real 
But I can't say that I feel 
The same 

And I really loved you 
But now it's time for you 
To find someone who'll do 
The things that I can't do 
For you 

Don't feel bad, it's okay, my dear 
Yeah you'll find a way to soothe your fears 
But it's deep within you. You'll see 
Just how happy that you'll be 
Without me. 

And I really loved you 
But now it's time for you 
To find someone who'll do 
The things that I can't do 
For you 

Then she says that we can't be friends 
Then she says that we can't be friends 
Then she says that we can't be friends 
Then she says that we can't be friends

Lyrics:

Come with me 
And you'll see 
Your wildest dreams 
Can truly be 
So give to me 
Your money 
And soon you'll see 
What you can be 

Tell one 
Tell two 
They'll tell 
More for you 

For what it's worth 
There seems to be a grain of truth 
But it's not worth 
The time that I would give to you 

Tell one 
Tell two 
They'll tell 
More for you 

It's time 
You'll be fine 
I can show you 
How to get rich quick

Quick

Lyrics:

Walk into the front door 
Then up to my room 
If i cannot hear you 
Then what do I do? 

When did I end up here? 
How do I get out? 
The silence is so painful 
I've never had a doubt 

Maybe on another day 
It won't be so hard to say 

I want out 

Another night in darkness 
Head inside the clouds 
Is it helping me or hurting 
If I do not make a sound? 

Cause I am the recluse 
Oh what's the use 
In going on like this? 
Please let this be it 

I am the recluse 
I am the recluse 

I am the recluse 
Oh what's the use 
In going on like this? 
Please let this be it 

I am the recluse 
I am the recluse

Lyrics:

When you look at me can you tell me what you see? 
Do you think it matches with what I see 
In the mirror? 
In the mirror? 

Do you see me base? I am just a big disgrace 
It's not in your words but it's written on your face 
I'll never bear the weight that my life will take 

I fear 
I fear 

I shutdown 
I don't make a sound 

I can't let it get me 
I can't let it try 
You can think what you think 
I know what I see 

In the mirror 

A persuasion game 
Interesting how you seem to play 
You can save your breath, my position's gonna stay 
You haven't seen the way that I spend my days 

Ya hear? 
Stand clear

Mirror

Lyrics:

Pass your judgment onto me 
Tell me, what have I done 
To deserve this wretchedness? 
Tell me, what have I become? 

Tense and angry, strucken with fear 
Clear becoming unclear 
Paranoia is in bloom, yeah 
How did things get so weird? 

But it's not that way 
Please don't let it be that way 

Back again, I have returned 
I'll tell ya what I have learned 
It's not easy to see yourself clearly 
Why is it that I have to burn? 

Yes it is that way 
Why's it have to be this way? 
And I have come to say 
That it will not be that way

The Output's first record as a full band, "Happy Mistakes," out Summer 2019

Lyrics:

I've been Misrepresented 
He was once a friend 
Now you think it's a waste 
To talk to me again 
How can I explain when 
You haven't seen me since then? 
I guess it is a waste to 
Talk to you again 

And now you say to me 
How could you be 
A liar and a cheat? 
Why don't you see 

That you think you know me 
But you don't know me 
Yeah you think you know me 
But you don't know me 

Living in the past I 
Go back to the scene 
It has been so long and 
I wonder how you have been 
This life isn't ordinary 
Forces are troubling me 
I can never go back 
To where you had cared for me 

How can it be 
That you think this of me 
Through this misery 
I will be set free 

And you think you know me 
But you don't know me 
Yeah you think you know me 
But you don't know me

The Output's 2nd single off of their new album "Happy Mistakes" due out this summer.

The Output is:
Adam Badgley - Vocals, Rhythm Guitar
Tom Collins - Lead Guitar
Nick Funk - Bass
Chris Slabicki - Drums

Lyrics:

Have you thought of me
Or is it easy not to?
I'd be lying if I
Said that I hadn't thought of you
And it's so hard for me
To push back all of these memories
They all trouble me
They feel like many, though they're few
Oh, what can I do?

Once a loser always a loser
Knowing this I fear for my future

I suppose the writing helps
Although unfortunately
It doesn't keep me out of the cell
It is only temporary
I suppose it keeps me sane
So I have sanity but not you
And that trade gives me the blues
I would have loved to have you too
Oh, what can I do?

Once a loser always a loser
Knowing this I fear for my future
Once a loser always a loser
Knowing this I fear for my future

Once/Always

The Output is:

Adam Badgley (Vocals, Rhythm Guitar)
Tom Collins (Lead Guitar)
Nick Funk (Bass)
Chris Slabicki (Drums)

The Output formed after the dissolve of Gape, a group that Adam played drums for in high school. After they split, he got to work recording a demo in his basement of music he wrote during his time in the band. "The Output," Adam's first album, was written over several years, recorded slowly during the process, and was released in December of 2017.

Prior to the release, Adam had recruited the help of long time friends Tom Collins, Nick Funk, and Chris Slabicki to fill in as the band for live shows. The group began playing shows in the greater Philadelphia area, slowly growing a fan base.

In the summer of 2018, they got into Screaming Parrot Studios and Warm Body Studios in Pottstown and Collegville PA to record their first record as a full group, "Happy Mistakes."

Offering music that is honest and energetic, The Output has a little something for everyone. Building on familiar feeling song structures, the group puts in their own twists to create something fresh and unique.
