Bad Habit

Let Me In

Written by Heather Smist
Produced by George Woods

Never Gonna Be The Same (Demo)

It Soothes Me

Bartender was written in 2014 and originally released as a single in 2016 preceding the Starting Over EP in 2017. This is a new version of the song recorded in 2022 with the same group of musicians from 2022's Out Searching album. This is the version of the song I always pictured - a much more organic and lively feeling take on my biggest song, to celebrate it hitting the decade mark.
lyrics
Bartender
Hope you don't mind if I pull up a seat
It's only Wednesday, but it's already shown
It's shaping up to be a terrible week
Help me get over the hump, cause I can't do it alone
She put an end to my five-year streak
Bartender
Bartender

Serve me up a little hope on the rocks
Might need a little help to drink it all down
I'm feeling helpless with my head in the stocks
While I'm waiting for the blade to come down
Don't you know that it's the only way
That I have found to get me through the day
Let me know if you know of another order
That could maybe make her wanna stay

Bartender
Don't have a driver to get me home
And it's a problem that I'll have to get used to
If she decides she's gonna leave me alone
I didn't plan ahead, I never had to before
Now my mind is as blank as a stone
Won't you please let me stay a little longer
Cause she's left me so weak in my bones
Bartender
Bartender

Serve me up a little hope on the rocks
Might need a little help to drink it all down
I'm feeling helpless with my head in the stocks
While I'm waiting for the blade to come down
Don't you know that it's the only way
That I have found to get me through the day
Let me know if you know of another order
That could maybe make her wanna stay

Bartender
I'll remember all our future dreams
Love mender
Please send her back home to me
Grief ender
Help me find a way to make her see
I won't surrender
I will defend her for eternity

Serve me up a little hope on the rocks
Might need a little help to drink it all down
I'm feeling helpless with my head in the stocks
While I'm waiting for the blade to come down
Don't you know that it's the only way
That I have found to get me through the day
Let me know if you know of another order
That could maybe make her wanna stay

Bartender
I will remember

Bartender
Thank you for your time
I'm not sure if this helped too much
But I do appreciate you trying
As I stumble at the door like I never done before
She is still all that's on my mind

"People Watching" by Air Traffic Controller 
Written by Dave Munro & William James McAuley III

Across the room
Across the street 
I'm watching you, watching me

So is that all there is to see
Are these your only memories

Are you the fly that's on the wall
You can't be caught, you'll never fall

Hiding in secret from us all
Who can you trust, who will you call

There was a time, you could do you
Now all you do is people watch
You people watch that's all you do
You loved and lost, you people watch

(Chorus)
Everybody's people watching 
Everybody's punch clocking
Waiting for the moonwalk 
to take them back 
to dance them away
It's all the same
Everybody's shadow boxing
Don't you want to stop drop and roll 
til the whole thing burns 
like you earned the flame
It's all the same
Shame shame shame 

How can you sleep
How will you die
When this is how you live your life
You see the world while locked inside
It's just a flash before your eyes 

We don't know why
We can't break through
If all we do is people watch
You people watch that's all you do
You loved and lost, you people watch

(Repeat chorus)

Air Traffic Controller - People Watching

Lyrics:

You say that you're fine, you swear it's true
but it don't mean anything, but it don't mean anything
You gave him your time like you needed to
you say it don't mean anything, you say it don't mean anything

Woah, no it's not that I don't care
Woah, still it's not my burden to bear
The things I share
Don't mean anything

Well, I guess that it's true that he's good to you
but it don't mean anything, but it don't mean anything
When you stay where you are and you won't say "I do"
I'd say it don't mean anything, I'd say it don't mean anything

Woah, no it's not that I don't care
Woah, still it's not my burden to bear
The things I share
Don't mean anything (x4)

Were the talks we had still worth it?
When I was upstairs was it worth it?
I know it seems so trivial
but in the end I know it's worth it

Woah, no it's not that I don't care
Woah, still it's not my burden to bear
The things I share

You say you're fine
You say you're fine
'Cuz all you wanted were things
that don't mean anything
