Lyrics: 
We all got snakes in our lifes. 
We don't know what to do with them. 
Seems like all they do is cry. 
When you don't wanna go through again. 

I don't got that kind of time. (x4) 

I don't feel like hearing that right now. 
They sneak their way in somehow. 
It's just like a snake in the grass. 
Can't see their reflection on glass. 

I don't got that kind of time. (x4) 

Crawl out of my life. (x4) 

Crawl. 

I don't got that kind of time (x4)

casey’s sleeping in the dirt 
mud is caked onto her skirt
but the sun is beating down
so she needs the cool soft ground
 casey runs around the yard
wishing that she could go far
split this town and catch a train
would we hear from her again

now she’s unlocked the back gate
finally she has escaped
while her parents are asleep
she hits the concrete with her feet
doesn’t know where she will go
and suddenly she misses home
stops when she reaches the tracks
breathes in deep and then turns back

casey knows that she’s still fast
but maybe not like summers past
runs from all that she’s been told
but does she know she’s getting old

casey’s yelling at the breeze
scared her when it hit the trees
she’s just just nervous from her dream
hears a knock then screams and screams

now she’s unlocked the back gate
one last time she has escaped
her parents follow down the street
begging casey come back please
doesn’t know where she will go
but she knows she can’t go home
over fences and through lawns
til her silhouette is gone

til her silhouette is gone
til her silhouette is gone
casey when will you come home
casey when will you come home

casey

girl it’s true
yeah i’m in love with you
please let me stay with you
we’ll do what lovers do
oh baby let me lay with you
girl how I ache for you
why do you play with me
I wander aimlessly 
oh baby I just want to die
when you look in my eyes
and then I start to cry
inside my head

let me lay with you

alright jon on lead guitar

like the ending of a chapter
said she's moving to the south
you're not the one she's looking after
creeping out the corner of her mouth
it sips away
while you just stay in your ways
at the bottom of your cup
if its not pain
that keeps you sane through your days
its the one you're thinking of
now you're turning through your pages
and your stories changing up
between the lines and all the phrases
it just feels like giving up

like the ending of a chapter

no page like you
try to
write new
no days shine through
eyes too
sky blue

she was creeping through your garden
took the apple from your tree
then your faith for her had started
but you knew where it ought to be
like the ending of a chapter

no page like you
try to
write new
no days shine through
eyes too
sky blue

ending of a chapter

this is what is happening

falling asleep

DTT006 | boxset - batch_six (EP)

https://deviltowntapes.bandcamp.com/album/batch-six

Written between November 2019 and May 2020, 'batch_six' sees boxset moving away from the heavily structured songwriting of previous efforts in favour of a more playful approach. Pieced together from an initial set of 12 loops, 'batch_six' is the sound of boxset letting loose. No deep thinking, no trying to make it sound a certain way, just seeing what happens. Full of richly layered guitars and adventurous instrumental detours, tracks recall the likes of Pavement and Yuck at their most expansive, whilst all clocking in under 3 minutes. 

Lyrics:

heading out early
lighting all around me
sun is beating on me
the maker left something in my way

can i head over?
i think i’ll head over
i’ll let the others know
what was sent

i saw it there
above me
my skin is burning
a lens is burning

they don’t feel bad
cause they don’t feel
all the time

he let me go early
i think i lost feeling
i remember hearing
that maker burns a couple
every day

i don’t know how i made it
need to find a way of
letting others know
where i am

i saw it there
above me
my skin is burning
a lens is burning

they don’t feel bad
cause they don’t feel
