Nominated you tonight
You don't know but you're first prize
And all the boys can keep on trying
But they'll have to get in line
because I've nominated you tonight

Calculated the perfect time
Conversation downed with wine
Sweep you right off your feet
Pick up lines with extra cheese
Calculated the perfect line

It's just you and I in this crowd
It's just our hearts thinking out loud
We aint leaving here like this
I'm not leaving here until I taste those lips

All our mates can step aside
You're calling me with those eyes
Pretty girl you're such a tease
But I can see you looking at me
So all our mates can step aside.

Recorded and produced at Anti Motion Studios

This album is for everyone who crashes the hardest when the lights go up for Christmas and the days get short and cold.

We Are But Thieves is a seasonal depression record, a winter-anguish record, and a thank-you letter to everyone who’s been with us in Year One.

We started AxAxC as an experiment:
two nobodies writing what hurt, what healed, and what we couldn’t say out loud —
while learning prompt engineering and playing with sound.

One year later, you gave us:
• 696,645 plays
• 1,134,905+ minutes listened
• 9,403 likes
• 452 new followers
• top cities like Kyiv • Minsk • Moscow • Hanau • Dnipro
and you carried tracks like Crown of Thorns, End of the Line and Transcendence way further than we expected.

This album is our way of saying thank you and “I see you” to everyone who drowns a little in the dark months.

Founding Five — 2025 Playback:
Nanem • Nhelomoloi580 • Colin Pagano • User 322501917 • NO FI$H

You five streamed us like crazy this year. You’re officially carved into AxAxC history.

Honorary Mentions / Day-One Family:
Blayvid, KAT, Coldwake (Jenny), MaxSoulBoneBlood, Vitaly, Hasti Sajadi, TheRealKingVass, Christopher Linder, Neghar B.

Thank you for riding with us, reposting us, yelling lyrics in DMs, and holding this project down when it was just weird noise in a corner of the internet.

This is for everyone dealing with SAD, depression, faith collapse, broken families, winter nights and quiet rooms:
• the ones who feel guilty for just existing,
• the ones who’ve written a 48-hour countdown in their head,
• the ones who feel “on my own” even in a crowded room,
• the ones who’ve thought “anywhere and nowhere would be better than here.”

If these songs hit you, do three things:

Save the track that feels like you.

Share it with someone who needs to know they’re not alone this winter.

Tell us in the comments which lyric you’re stealing for your heart.

Thank you for fucking with us this year.
This is the end of Year One.

And if hotlines feel too big, reach out to one person you trust – friend, family member, teacher, someone in your community.

You are not weak for needing help.
You are not a burden for feeling this way.

Even if this album sounds like your head, today is not the day you die.
