this town’s no place for us to live in the people here are all the same your mother’s dress is torn from all the little things that tear us apart at the seams i need a light my dying cigarette is burning out tired eyes are shut and i can see without a doubt that we can’t take it anymore we can’t take it anymore those dreams we had about the city have all been covered up by snow the sun’s gone down and the winter creeps right in the cold keeps us together by candlelight we’ll write our letters and see how far the other’s gone times will change like the seasons and winter’s snow will melt at last i found my light my dying cigarette is on the ground with eyes wide open we escaped that desperate no-name town we couldn’t take it anymore no we don’t talk much anymore

February air chills to the bone i can’t wait to see you at home i haven’t seen you since last May and it’s so cold today frosted windows fade away i can see a brand new day bring me back to you just like June i miss you, I miss you come back home i feel alone as time flies by touch down on the tarmac, get my bags i didn’t see you there there was empty air took a cab rode alone front seat empty back seat full the “for sale” marked the spotted lawn nine months a widow - far too long. fumble with the keys to the door, you still live here, but I can’t anymore empty walls are covered pictures of broken lovers i can see myself next to the ghost of the one I used to love and I miss you, I miss you come back home I feel alone as time flies by

Home 04:31
evening sun fades too fast the city streets are far too cold and i know this thing won’t last but you’ll still haunt me when i’m older now i’m lying on the floor the silence takes me by surprise i’m not hungry anymore i’ve been fed too many lies i’ve been home for so long i’ve been writing the same damn song i’ve been writing you a song was the water always deep or am i half the man i was sometimes i wish that i could keep smiling like i used to

these brittle bones have not aged well and i feel the sickness creeping in fingers shaking far too much to lock the door to my empty house this part of town yeah it gets cold in the winter alone and i wonder if we can’t warm it up i’ve been walking tired streets with cigarettes and blistered feet my days have slowly turned to nights sleepless hours lit by candlelight this part of town yeah it gets cold in the winter alone and i wonder if we can’t warm it up i’ve been waiting here at home so many seasons alone and i think that it’s finally warm enough.

about

People come and go, though it’s better when they stay. For those that leave, we hope they find their own trees, homes, and better places. We’ve found ours.

Some people think the "Buy Now" button means you HAVE to pay money for our songs, which isn't the case at all! We've set it to "pay what you want" so you have the option of giving us a couple of dollars if you really like us, but you're more than welcome to set the price to $0 and get it for free! We just want people to listen to our music, and we understand if you can't or don't want to pay for it! :)
