Title track from the upcoming EP by the same name.

Off My Chest

This song is inspired by a story Garrison heard about a man who left home to tour and make money to keep the roof over him and his fiancée heads', only to find out she had been cheating the whole time with random men after catching her in the act.

You Felt Like The World Was On Fire

Written as a letter to Washington from American citizens about the distrust and disgust of recent policies, specifically the handling of the Afghanistan pull out. Americans from both sides are starting to realize that majority of these politicians do not put American interests first. Available for streaming October 1st!!

Dear Washington, Sincerely America

Blank Space is a cover we chose based off of the style of I Prevail, who also covered it from Taylor Swift. We wanted a popular track to show case some of our talent while to a familiar sound.

Bi-Polar Nostalgia

Blank Space

Blank Space ft. Chase Alan

The softest track on the album but with a heavy meaning. It starts off talking from the speakers point of view, stating that the other person cn move on and that their interests didn't match up saying that she feels that she's missing out. By the end of the track, he regrets pushing her away and now that she's happy, he realizes that he's the one missing out now. Struck to never finding out how it feels to be happy with her, the same feeling she had in the beginning. This really highlights the psychological effect that break ups have on each person, where the woman feels lost and hurt at first that later the man feels that same feeling.

Missing Out

A track dedicated to modern day "superheroes" such as police officers and military. Regardless of certain stereotypes that each of them have, at the end of the day majority have a job of protecting us. Most of them do it selflessly while accepting their job is very much thankless.

Modern Day Superman

Inspired by the song "Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High" this one follows a similar idea that the antagonist calls or sees the narrator when they are abusing a substance (alcohol, drugs, etc.) while feeling like the abused substance as well. Claiming that the other person is using them to feel good or just to get by in the meantime.

Substance You Abuse

Cover song of the Chris Isaak classic "Wicked Game" done acoustically. Inspired by the Stone Sour cover of this track, while sampling Chris Isaak's voice and leaving out a verse and keeping just the first 2 before rolling out with a high note and ending with the classic line, "Nobody loves no one."

Wicked Game

Wicked Game (Acoustic Cover)

Previously released as a single, this track explores the mind of someone who just found out that their girl was cheating on them in their own home with several men, while saying that when they were together that she felt like the world was on fire, as to say a burning passion. Now her world is on fire in the sense that its falling apart due to her disloyalty.

Our very first independently mixed and mastered tracks, revisited. Topic is of the Zodiac Killer, a serial killer who ran across the California coast and has technically remained undiscovered and still unnamed.

Zodiac

Zodiac (Remastered)

It's a Metalcore/Electroni-core track similar to style from the late 2000s. The story is about the main character and woman being together but after she moves away he moves on. When she comes back realizing she was wrong, he's already moved on with his life. Leaving a positive message about moving on and focusing on yourself, even when things don't work out. How can you love someone, without loving yourself?

We All Need Each Other

A Metalcore track about the frustrations of being stuck in traffic. Also this was written while in traffic!

A New Direction

No Slow Drivers In The Left Lane

We sometimes have those inner thoughts that come up to help, hurt, or even destroy us. In this track, these thoughts are seen as his mirror reflection, his other self trying to motivate the protagonist to do more than just get through the day and actually follow through with his life and goals. This is the pep talk we want to give ourselves.

Follow Through

A track about someone losing the love they had and growing cold to a relationship while the other still feels for them, but chooses to move on. Something like this can be super difficult to process and in the song it's compared to drowning. While it's painless, you still suffocate and it's not instant.

Unemotional

First song completely about the infamous Zodiac Killer, who still remains undiscovered. Using accurate quotes through letters and phone calls.

Lost is about being lost within yourself, but finding yourself along the way and takes you on a journey with a man finding that path.
