- i have no home, i have no name, i have no fear, i'm on foreign grounds -

i have been working on this project for almost 1.5 years now and i'm so happy to finally share it with you. 
i am also so very thankful for all the support and love i've received up until now and it's been the main thing keeping me motivated.
i am not one of many words so i will let the music speak for itself but i do wanna show my appreciation for all the people who have helped me get here.

special thanks to alex and alex, chaz, emi, eric, ian, jim, july, matt and matthew, micheal, orion, sahil, thomas, tris & yuzh. this album literally wouldn't have turned out the way that it did without you.

foreign grounds

our track on @wearesilkenwood 's comeback charity compilation "MAD HATTER! Vol.1"! thank you for making this track w me @gemgemgemgemgem !

our prompt was to write a track from the perspective of a fictional character so we chose one of our favorite ghibli movies, "Princess Mononoke"! this was incredibly fun to make and i'm so happy to share it with y'all!


lyrics:

ever since i locked my eyes on you,
i could tell that you were the truth,
i tried to yell out across the blue,
but i still had something to prove,

it seems we have different views,
but time‘s running out, we got shit to do,
nightmares kill our friends with hate,
pop out with a sword, i could dispatch you,
yall better not get in our way, cause we ran out of mercy to give to you
its just me and my girl and her godgiven wolves, and they might run a hit on you (hit on you)

I‘d kill for you,
No life in those eyes wouldn’t suit u well
our bloodsoaked body’s, skin on skin,
I‘d always pursue your spell

trust me, we‘ll never be part of them,
just u and me by ourselves.
divine intervention on our side,
i dont need nobody else

and your teeth are in my neck,
and i'll hold you til the end

don't leave me with a bite,
just trust my words,
you know im on your side,
please lift my curse,
i see it in ur eyes,
i know it hurts,
but i need you in my life til im in the dirt

strange Girl
keep falling for you,
an angel, no wings just canine tooth,
stranger,
i‘m always there for you,
Til I‘m consumed

and your teeth are in my neck,
and i'll hold you til the end

don't leave me with a bite,
just trust my words,
you know im on your side,
please lift my curse,
i see it in ur eyes,
i know it hurts,
but i need you in my life til im in the dirt

strange Girl
keep falling for you,
an angel, no wings just canine tooth,
stranger,
i‘m always there for you,
Til I‘m consumed

Lyrics:

i don’t care about your friends
or who they think i am
miles away from that life, and we’re different
yea you hit my pen
fucked up on the couch, full bliss
be sure we ain’t listening, yah
or learning
the moment will pass but i hold you like water
concerning
20/20 vision through my pink glasses
my heart feels warm but i need that thing burning

(and for you it burns, again)
yeah i need that thing burning
couldn’t care less if it hurts and
won’t dodge the pain like vermin
(even when it hurts, i’ll pretend)
could hear you smiling through the call
but tell me is it worth the fall

i know she wants me
she puts her eyes all on me
blush from afar, i gon’ see
this moment is all that we need
i know she wants me
she puts her body on me
and though i know it’s costly
this moment is all that we need

wait - don’t you breathe out
stay still and know that you’re here now
even more of a beauty in real life
even more it will hurt but it’s feels right
you can look away
in denial, but this feeling is here to stay
in twos, undefeated, were here to stay
god let us connect, that was his mistake

i know she wants me
she kissed me under palm trees
blush from up close, i gon' see
this moment is all that we need

i know she wants me,
chase love and switch the country,
and though i know it’s costly,
this moment is all that we need

i know she wants me
she puts her eyes all on me
blush from afar, i gon’ see
this moment is all that we need
i know she wants me
she puts her body on me
and though i know it’s costly
this moment is all that we need

(and for you it burns, again)
(even when it hurts, i’ll pretend)

lyrics:

can’t let nature contain me,
100+ on the dash doesn’t phase me
yea im racing my thoughts now,
are you really here with me in this daydream
will i get a call back if i call out
know the number,
dial in the keypad,
and my fingers shaky,
when im chasing my thoughts down,
are you really here with me in this daydream
will i get a call back if i call out

god help me now,
‘fore i pull the ceiling down,
who to trust when half the country wants me underground,
and still its sunny out,
ironic but the truth is,
it makes my days better and id rather just be clueless,
and keep my brain calm,
pop the chains off,
inhale until i stay gone,
cleared for takeoff,
all this rapid back and forth cant be good for me,
inside the plane hoping that it pays off,

its just me in this room,
locked right into my sights,
locked right into my sights,
locked right into my sights,

its just me in this room,
locked right into my sights,
locked right into my sights,
locked right into my sights

can’t let nature contain me,
100+ on the dash doesn’t phase me
yea im racing my thoughts now,
are you really here with me in this daydream
will i get a call back if i call out
know the number,
dial in the keypad,
and my fingers shaky,
when im chasing my thoughts down,
are you really here with me in this daydream
will i get a call back if i call out

when god put me on this path,
yeah i know he wanted blood, yuh
feel the shadow on my back,
yeah i know my time is up yuh,
u-up yuh,
i just gotta lock in,
run against the clock

bittersweet / hotline

hotline

lyrics:

so why do i care if i know the outcome anyways
i try my best to get some distance
who ever said that i would leave without a trace
and i don't think you know at all what you want from me,
tired of it cause i just don't see you and me,
silent gaze across the movie screen,
why are you so focused on it,
tap in like it's what i wanted,
but our realm is simply haunted,
i don't know what to expect

oh, so bittersweet,
stare me down, i feel the heat,
why do you still believe,
falling into winter's eve,

oh, so bittersweet,
stare me down, i feel the heat,
why do you still believe,
falling into winter's eve,

i know inside that it's not forever,
no guarantees when the string is severed,
forgetmenot, i don't see a difference,
look for a shot but i don't claim immunity,
tired of it, cause i just don't see you and me,

and for a fact i don’t know why i was chosen,
im holding my pose and, still cant see the coast my own,
but do i really want to,
going out in sin,
dont want the blood to be stuck on you,
please give me a sign,
the path took me over the water,
still i dont feel fine,
so why even try,
why even try,

oh, so bittersweet,
stare me down, i feel the heat,
why do you still believe,
falling into winter's eve,

oh, so bittersweet,
stare me down, i feel the heat,
why do you still believe,
falling into winter's eve,

oh, so bittersweet,
stare me down, i feel the heat,
why do you still believe,
falling into winter's eve,

oh, so bittersweet,
stare me down, i feel the heat,
why do you still believe,
falling into winter's eve,

bittersweet

Lyrics:
(intro)
you're beautiful the way you are
i can see you within my heart

(verse)
ever since i locked my eyes on you,
i could tell that you were the truth,
i tried to yell out across the blue,
but i still had something to prove

it seems we have different views,
but time‘s running out, we got shit to do,
nightmares kill our friends with hate,
pop out with a sword, i could dispatch you,
y'all better not get in our way, cause we ran out of mercy to give to you
its just me and my girl and her godgiven wolves, and they might run a hit on you

I‘d kill for you,
No life in those eyes wouldn’t suit u well,
our bloodsoaked body’s skin on skin,
I‘d always pursue your spell,
trust me, we‘ll never be part of them,
just u and me by ourselves.
divine intervention on our side,
i dont need nobody else,

(pre-chorus)
and your teeth are in my neck
and i'll hold you til the end

(chorus)
don't leave me with a bite, just trust my words
you know i'm on your side, please lift my curse
i see it in your eyes, i know it hurts,
but i need you in my life, til im in the dirt

strange girl
keep falling for you,
an angel, no wings, just canine tooth,
stranger,
i‘m always there for you,
'til I‘m consumed

(bridge)
don't look in my eyes like that now,
i tried to be nice but they want-

and your teeth are in my neck
and i'll hold you til the end

(chorus)
don't leave me with a bite, just trust my words
you know i'm on your side, please lift my curse
i see it in your eyes, i know it hurts,
but i need you in my life, til im in the dirt

strange girl
keep falling for you,
an angel, no wings, just canine tooth,
stranger,
i‘m always there for you,
'til I‘m consumed
