today i saw your little ring hiding in the sand
i put in in a canary cup to put it in your hand
before you walked away 
your little crochet hat unraveled and you sang
that's why i'll never pass by lou's coffee shop
or speak of it again

woo!

you don't have to apologize because i don't write cards each year
there are some things i'll learn to accept
and some i'll learn to fear
so go walk away 
i'll pop some champagne 
bottoms up while i can
that's why i'll never pass by lou's coffee shop
or speak of it again

The Sight Of Love - The Camerawalls feat. Sarah Gaugler

First single off the Caprice EP

Lyrics:
Stand behind your alternate ego
while stepping on a couple of toes
its hard to swallow yet shes bitten off more than you can chew
when you're upset, no she won't shut up
you press reset but its all still shit
you didn't care less to undress
that's why everybody found a way
into your lingerie
And its more than likely you'll say you're sorry because its the easiest way out
oh, its so easy to get away
and its a luxury to be condescending 
I hope you don't get rich
with your polite sarcasm
And she was one of us before she left this house
good riddance
cause unsolicited kindness is kind of sour
tell me about it
you find me drunk in a liquor store
or all alone getting stoned while playing guitar
i don't need your help
cause you always want something in return
and its another thing when you imagining your life
imagine my life
let me scream it out loud
because its your mistakes
that makes you a man

Mistakes

Lyrics:

I've got a knife
to cut off a slice of life
and feed it to you
And I'll make sure
You chew yourself to pieces

Goodnight
and Goodbye
this is the last time we'll try
to make meaning
between the keening
of our hearts as they lie to each other
Goodnight and goodbye
this is the last time we'll try
to make meaning

And all this well wishing
all this goodnight and goodbye
is just fishing
for a way to soften the blow in the night
and I don't want to know
the meaning behind why you cry
and I don't want to know
the sound of your flesh
as you chew yourself to pieces

Goodnight
and Goodbye
this is the last time we'll try
to make meaning
of our hearts as they lie to each other
Goodnight and goodbye
this is the last time we'll try
to make meaning

So don't worry about me
I won't be what eats you alive
I'll leave that up to life
I'll leave that up to life
So don't worry about me
I'm pretty sure I'm gonna just be fine
I'll be alright
cuz I won't be the one 
eating themselves alive
this ain't goodnight and goodbye
I'm done with all that

goodnight and goodbye

i'm trying

----------------------------------
Darling would you be so kind to give me a shot at this
unconventional start to an ordinary part
of this teenage bliss
         
Cause baby where you're hiding
is where i wanna be
i can't keep them at bay, but i promise, babe
just be afraid with me

I keep it together
just keep it together
let's stay together darling
keep me from falling apart

I'm in no hurry to hear those roman bells
i'll take my time
cause it's worth my while
to be under your spell

Keep It Together

We're trying new things! First song for 2016

Recorded in Garageband

writing these feelings down for you to forget
swearing him off to suppress your regret
you think you gave him everything
but that’s the reason you’re suffering

we can’t always have it our way 
the stars align darling but not in a day

looking at places where you thought you’d find
that lover who would understand your mind
don’t keep on wasting your time
longing for boys with their petty clever lines

when did you lose your sight?
on the concrete you’ve fallen hard,
with no maps to guide you, i’d get lost too

reading the pages of your memories
from blots and creases of your old diary
that’s when you realized what was real
you had to die just to feel

Roam Error

Track 14 from The Double-Sided Sophomore Slump

Written and Recorded by the Geeks Produced by RJ Mabilin / Redverb Studio

Hey now  it’s not worth fighting for,
I still wake up alone and dejected, 
prone and rejected
I’m not  worth fighting for 
I still feel like nothing makes sense, I don’t make sense
I’m just waiting for the end now 
I hope it comes

Hey now  this is not me, 
I swear it isn’t
 My mind keeps telling me, things I don’t mean
I’m not  worth fighting for, 
I can’t fathom  all my delusions, my inhibitions

The End (An Ode to Nihilist Memes)

rough draft + remastered MUYB coming out soon + new EP out this 2018 wow much busy

Maybe 2k18

Recorded at Ice Plant Studios
Written by Mariah Reodica
Performed and arranged by Kean Reformado and Mariah Reodica
Mixed and mastered by Kean Reformado

I was looking for something that wasn't there
I can't complain, from the start it ain't fair
A shade of winter, a sordid white
I always thought that you looked so fine

In the summer it's so hot I can't think
I sweat in bed til I can't feel a thing
A shaky headache, a sorry head
When I have time to write you I'll sleep it off instead

Should I be sorry I remember it too well?
The more I think about it, the less I can tell

I should've known, I saw most of the signs
Thought I could keep up but something wasn't right
A falling ladder, a sleeping crow
A doppelganger out on death row

false-romantic

i guess you’re clueless of this
i have this one puzzle piece
and you’re quite euphemistic 
well, darling that’s fantastic

the magnet’s not attracted
you’re dull and false-romantic
as potent as what’s given.
forfeited so this would end

you’ve been pushing me away
oh how it feels to be replaced
yes, i’ve solved your ways, and i know
you’d choose life and you’d choose to go

but things have stood still for you
not quite sure if it’s all true
the reasons may be so few
but looks like you’ve thought this through

But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

That's the problem when you get to specifics
I fixate on the small details
I forget the bigger picture
At least that's what my horoscope says

And I guess I don't believe in constellations
Seeing the future only gets you so far
All I need is rude warm blood in the night
And some shelter from the dark

But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

[dom facemelting solo]

That's the problem when you get to specifics
I fixate on the small details
I forget the bigger picture
And I close the door instead


But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

Room So Small (Big Version)

easy boys for easy girls
they cancel each other out
but the ones who are too much work
are left alone

though we try to believe 
a simple joy will suffice
easy boys and easy girls
they break our hearts

i sang her my favorite song and she said "okay"
i told her what it all meant and she said "okay"

easy girls for easy boys
they cancel each other out
and i see you waiting for someone
unlike them

though you try to believe
you can stay clear of their way
easy girls and easy boys 
they'll break your heart

you told him about your day and he said "okay"
you told him you loved him true and he said "thank you"

leave them be
i know the waiting's hard
but you are better than that
we are better than that

easy boys, easy girls
easy boys and easy girls
they break our hearts

easy boys and easy girls (featuring the chickens of the morning)

Lyrics:

Do you have a story that you'd like to tell?
While waiting for a shooting star to fall from the sky
We'll close our eyes and make a wish
And spend the night counting constellations 

Oh my stargazer
Your eyes so bright, it's glimmering, spark-a-ling
Is that Cassiopeia?
Underneath the nebula
I promise I won't get tired
Of counting stars at night with you 

Let's close our eyes for a moment
Think of the darkness as the night sky
And fill it with stars that will form ourselves
Isn't that nice? Oh isn't that nice... 

Oh my stargazer
Your eyes so bright, it's glimmering, flick-e-ring
Is that Cassiopeia?
Underneath the nebula
I promise I won't get tired
Of counting stars at night with you

('Cause) You are my soul's counterpoint that heaven sent to me
The brightest constellation I can see
