Dimming Sky

I got it in for you and you don’t know 
It started with a passing glance; you were in the front row 
When you tossed your hair, did you notice me with the spotlight in your eye? 
I’m not sure 
Maybe it’s a fantasy, you and me 
Living in a perfect world, in harmony 
Or maybe it’s not meant to be, well I cant see, cause I’m not sure 

Chorus: 
You don’t know the way that I’m feeling 
You don’t know, it might be the real thing 
You don’t know…You don’t know 

I would give you everything if you’d be mine 
I’d take you all around the world, we’d sip fine wine 
But back to reality, I know this can’t be because it’s all in my mind 

Chorus 

(Tunji Verse) 
I saw her face in the crowd in back shaped like an hour glass, 
Got me thinking questions I don't think that I know how to ask, 
Fifteen seconds felt like more than half an hour past, 
Sweet as devil's food cake and she can get devoured fast, 
Her beauty shines on tryin' to keep my mind calm even though her heart is beating like a ticking time bomb, 
I can't tell if it's reality or fantasy, 
Baby we can grow this thing together if we plant a seed 

(Chorus)

You Don't Know (feat. Tunji)

You, I think it was half past 3 
You spilled your Jim and Coke on me 
Left the party half past 4 
Had to sneak into your dorm 
Left before the sun had shown 
Trippin all over your clothes 
As I shut the door to 213 
I heard your voice from the bed say… 

(Chorus) 
Get back to me, Get back to me 
I’m waiting for you to 
Get back to me, Get Back to me 
I’m waiting for you 

I always living on the fly 
Used to think about you and I 
Hoping someday that we could be 
I'm thinking that some day we should be 
You 
I'm tired of wasting time 
You probably found another guy 
And now I'm messaging your iPhone 
Because you're in another time zone

Get Back To Me

http://irationmusic.com

Chorus: I got you wanting to play. You got me coming your way. 

I met you on a Saturday with that look in your eyes 
Acting like your innocent ‘till I took off your disguise 
Was hoping I could take you there, and we were done telling lies 
You hail the cab I’ll pay the fare 
Love rocket to the skies. 

Chorus 

There was nothing left to say, your name was slipping my mind 
We barely made it up the stairs, we barely made it inside 
I knew that I could take you there and we were done telling lies 
It’s just a one time affair 
Love rocket to the skies

Coming Your Way

http://irationmusic.com

I know we’ve always been a longshot 
I’m down to roll those dice 
I’ll travel down that long hard road girl 
Just to make you know that I tried 
We might not make it in the end but 
We’ll sure enjoy that ride 
At least we’ll have this song to remember 
The way we felt that night 

I’m all in till you make it with me 
I’ll read it written on that old marquee 
Take a chance just wait and you’ll see 
Ooh, wait and see 

I know we’ve always been a long shot 
I’m down to run all night 
Travel through the rain and cold girl 
Just to make you know it’s alright 
We might not make it in the end but 
We’ll sure enjoy that ride 
At least we’ll have this song to remember 
Remember me by 

I’m all in till you make it with me 
I’ll read it written on that old marquee 
Take a chance just wait and you’ll see 
Ooh, wait and see

Wait And See

I’ve known you for a while girl 
And yeah we’ve had some good times 
But when I saw you last night girl 
Well I just couldn’t define 
The way you looked in that dress girl 
I saw you mouthing my name 
And I just got to confess girl 
I felt that something had changed 

(Chorus) 
I know I said I’m not crossing that line 
And I know I said I was doing just fine 
But after what you did to me last night, 
Ooh girl you changed my mind 

I’ve known you for a while girl, 
And yeah you’ve always been down 
But when I saw you last night girl 
I knew I had found… 
The one to break down my walls 
Until they crumbled to dust 
You’re the one that can change me 
You’re the one I can trust

Change My Mind

http://irationmusic.com


If you want to learn you got to try 
You got to get it wrong to get it right 
You’re searching for the truth but finding lies 
When all you got to do is look inside you 

Chorus: It’s all in you x 4 

You want to be a star you got to shine 
And use your own light when you need a guide 
You keep getting lost following signs 
When everything you need is right inside you

All In You

Automatic is an album that most completely describes our music. It is eclectic in its songs and covers the full range of styles that we pride ourselves in being able to play. Love in all its forms, is and has always fueled our music: love of life and its mysteries, love for your home, love of nature, and of course love between people. Automatic is no different. The title track "Automatic" is a tribute to our fans. We owe them everything. - Micah Pueschel

Lyrics:

This is that full out souped up automatic just can’t quit let the bass hit right on time
Running hard til the end put you in a panic automatic

I know that life is just a test and I’m trying my best to give it nothing less and
I know I do it all for you when I see you staring back with a love that’s true
Sometimes I don’t know how to feel
I try to soak it in
It’s all so surreal and
I’m just a man with a guitar
Words in my mind
A song in my heart

I wanna give it back to you
I know that you can feel it too

This is that full out souped up automatic just can’t quit let the bass hit right on time
Running hard til the end put you in a panic automatic smile knowing you’ll be mine
Full out souped up automatic can’t quit let the bass hit right on time
Running hard til the end put you in a panic automatic

We’re gone travelling so far
Take us in your car
Bump it in the yard
We grow and bring it back to you
Never losing touch with what we’ve been through
Sometimes we get pulled away
Know that we’ll be back
Sorry for the delay
We are all about the luv
You give us the life that we all dreamed of

And we wanna give it back to you
I know that you can feel it too

Chorus

The time has come
The lights are on high
I wanna know I never thought life was passing us by
And the only certainty is that it’s you and me tonight
And we’re gonna give it all til the curtain call
We’re gonna make it alright

"One Way Track" is one of the most complete songs we've done. It's one of the most lyrically unique songs I've ever written. It's one of my favorite songs  to play on an acoustic as well as full band and it's interesting to see the difference in the two. - Micah Pueschel

Lyrics:

Smoke trails and old wives’ tales whispered in the hills where the west was won
It’s been a long time coming can’t tell where I start and where I am done
Maybe it’s best if we stop thinking
Lately I feel my doubt sinking
You’re not sure but my heart is pure and I gotta let you know something

My love is a one way track
We can hop aboard and not look back
My love can hurt or set you free
Just turn a blind eye to reality
My love can
Love is a one way track
Speeding down the rails and I can’t turn back
My love can’t give you guarantees
Just close your eyes and come with me

I’ve always been the one lost in a dream when I should’ve been serious
You’ve always been the type to hold back even though you were curious
Maybe it’s best if we stop drinking
But we can never let the doubt sink in
I’m not sure and it might be the cure but I gotta let you know something

Chorus

We’re too far gone
It’s too right to go wrong
So get on board
Whatever you feel you act on
It’s a one way track
And no we can’t turn back
Headed out straight never hesitate
And I don’t have to tell you that

Chorus

Dark skies over the avenue
Just another storm you put me through
And though the raindrops hit the ground
Nothing we can do can stop this fire now
Started with a beat from a jealous heart
Grew into the words that pushed our world apart
And now I’m standing out in the cold
Wishing you had heard me when I told you that…

This love will burn away this way
And this love is over when you say
Whoa
This time and I won’t let go
When the walls come down you’ll know I told you so
This love will burn away this way

I know it’s crazy but I can’t deny
You shot me in the heart with an alibi
I know I’ve been a fool a couple times before
But I was blinded by the fact that I wanted more
Now I confess it’s getting hotter and I’m quite sure
That I can’t make it long enough to find a cure
And even though I hear you begging me to stay
I’m watching our love burn away

Chorus

Burn

'Back Around' is one of the songs I'm most proud of on the new album. It's a bit dark and a bit edgy but it possesses an optimistic heart. The standup piano, sparse bass hits and alternating drum beats give it a style that's hard to define. I think that's why we like it so much. - Micah Pueschel

What you said
I can't seem to get it out of my head
Lost in the thoughts of the past when I go to bed
I thought that I'd move on
You'd just become a brand new song
Miscounted the one that was there to be counted on

This wounded heart of mine can't walk the line
Maybe I'll be better off the 2nd time

Waiting for you to come back around girl
So you can save my world
And when the lights go on in the night I'm not lonely
Back around girl
Change my world
And when the lights go off in the night I'm not lonely

I could've been a better man
I could've tried to understand
But I don't know anything
I lost before I began

This wounded heart of mine can't walk the line
Maybe I'll be better off 2nd time

Chorus

Back Around

Hive is buzzing woah working hard gotta fill up those holes
Shining brightly gold want it all gotta go sell your soul, sell your soul

Milk and honey
Keeps you coming
Milk and honey
Always on your mind

Get just one more fix
Gonna buy new lips he can kiss
Granted one more wish
You're gonna find another one for your list for your list

Chorus

You want it all you need it now
You can't resist still searching
You need your

Light eyes with a splintered heart
Contrary and she’s whip smart
Never know what way to go
Never mind that she can’t say no
Light eyes with a splintered heart
Lost love and open ocean swells
The stories that the sea tells
A weary weathered sailor gone
Never mind that it’s been too long
Light eyes with a splintered heart

I’m tired I don’t wanna be alone
And I just can’t find the words to let you know
This time I will lay it on the line
I’ve got a feeling to get you and I’m trying to let you know

Twisted with a jealous mind
Not yet but you’ll be all mine
Never know just what to say
Never know the games to play
Twisted with a jealous mind
She’s a ruthless heartbreaker
A dancehall dream taker
She might not know my
But she’ll be mind just the same
Light eyes with a splintered heart

Chorus

Splintered Heart

We both know you can’t take it slow
Cuz we’ve seen it all before
Neon lights you live for the night
Sneaking out the back door
Rolling the dice you’re caught up in the vices
Lifting lines another score
Late night buzz you’re not one to trust
You never needed help before

I know you’re high flying
And I’ll be waiting here when you’re done trying
It’s been a long long long time
And I’ll be making sure you touch down fine

You're playing the club an ace for the love and breaking hearts from up above. Endless fun gamble and run another day you ask for more. living up so high you're caught up in the sky and you'll never die or fall in fear but it's getting clear the ship's hard to steer you're tearing through the atmosphere

Chorus

Just another day on a desert isle
Caught up in a dream when I caught her smile
Drank her down fast and I felt it burn
I already knew that I’d never learn
She lingered in my thoughts and my memories
I wonder if she’s remember me
I’m underwater and I’m dying slow
All because I can’t let go

You know you can’t fight the undertow
Trying to figure out which way to go
It’s starting to pull me under slow
I’m trying but I can’t let go

Cast another bottle from my lonely shore
Can’t remember who I’m writing for
She’s walking through my dreams like a ghost at night
Stay close to my camp fire light
8 weeks of her in my life
She’s aiming for my heart with her crooked knife
I know I should leave when the tide is low
But I just can’t let go

Chorus

Undertow

"This track came from a session with our good friend BW back home in Hawaii. We made a few dub beats in our hometown at his studio, mostly just for fun. I played bass, Micah wrote and sang, and Brad played all the other instruments. We recorded the whole thing piece by piece at his house. I really like the addition of the horns on this one, and am really stoked on how it turned out." - Adam 

LYRICS: 

A little story about a boy I used to know
Always fascinated by the dounds on the radio
Late at night with the moon up high
He listened to the bass bump and stared up at the sky singing
'Hold up! I like the way it sounds.
Please Mr. DJ keep the record spinning round
Hold up!  I like I like the way it moves
Spin it like ya got something to prove

Mr. Operator don't stop.
The night is young and the dancehall's hot
Mr. Operator don't quit
Cuz that could be a crime that you don't wanna commit

A little story 'bout a girl around the way
Had that music blasting in her room every day
Late at night when she supposedly slept
Little white lies out the window she crept singing
Hold up!  I like the way it sounds
Please Mr. DJ keep the record spinning 'round
Hold up!  I like the way it moves
Spin it like you got something to prove

Mr. Operator

Ya trying to rock it uptown
But i don't wanna come down
I'm Gonna try to pick it up now
Oh well

Stay a little longer
Stare into the light
Let the sound hold you
Til the end of the night

And if you pour another drink for me
I'll be leaving you behind
One thing you gotta know now
I'm the wandering kind

Feel it getting stronger
Building inside
Wanting it to crash through
Like a wavering tide

And the more you try to blink you'll be
Lost in your mind
Cuz if you're tryna rock uptown
I'll be letting you slide

Uptown
