Brain cells rusting, bodies lusting Audience it's me against all else The bitter and the cold Chain react your satisfaction Pushing through to do what you couldn't do The story must be told Well don't go thinking that it's all your fault But don't blame me for what you lost Combine our minds to find The missing link of time But just realize to read between the lines Falling faster towards disaster Punch me out and shut me down, I've reached The reasons for my end All this pain goes down the drain Your smiling face will fill the space I've saved You've no need to pretend, no Well don't go thinking that it's all your fault But don't blame me for what you lost Combine our minds to find The missing link of time But just realize to read between the lines Oh, the Earth is turning faster than I can Determine how long it's been since you and I Keep your distance, for instance, I'm fine I'm lying, I'm dying 'Cause I still miss you Well don't go thinking that it's all your fault (all your fault) But don't blame me for what you lost (what you lost) Combine our minds to find The missing link of time But just realize to read between the lines

Scotch Tape 04:43
Staring through the wall and hoping I will not feel anything at all When I fall on my face Waiting down the hall and praying For my final curtain call, I stall And watch you walk away 'Cause it's just so hard to be myself around you And I'd love to say I was the one who found you But I taste blood when we're alone I've been fixing bones inside my broken body With scotch tape and some coffee Still paying for my flaws I'm drinking isopropyl alcohol Fuck it all I don't think I should owe you anything But my life I don't think you should argue anything I already know you're right Drive my naked eye Beside these short sarcastic power lines It's fine, I don't mind Anymore Buildings left behind Inside our melted plastic paradigm There's no time I don't think I should owe you anything But my life I don't think you should argue anything I already know you're right Waiting in the walls and praying For my feeling anything at all When I fall Out of place Staying for your call, I'm sitting Fixing bones inside my broken body With scotch, tape, and some coffee I don't think I should owe you anything But my life I don't think you should argue anything I already know you're right

Another side effect A complication of involvement, indirect I don't know what the world would expect Dearest dependency A common option for the common man lost at sea The writing on the wall wasn't cheap Halfway to hell and back Can't help but realize just how long I've been off track I didn't think of how you'd react A static state of mind A sudden breakthrough, a final fatal find I know I'm not the first of my kind But I just wish for a break in the rain Nothing's ever quite the same When they're wearing out your name but you Can't complain, no And it's too late now to keep counting the days Either justify the phase Or re-customize my fate, god damn I can barely stay awake Bending until I break Can't seem to comprehend how much is still at stake I'm thinking positively even though my memory feels fake Caught up on Walnut Street Layers of shamefulness surrounded by sheer conceit Kinda scared of when my antihero character comes clean But I just wish for a break in the rain Nothing's ever quite the same When they're wearing out your name but you Can't complain, no And it's too late now to keep counting the days Either justify the phase Or re-customize my fate Even when I try and concentrate I just can't stay awake In this rain

Waterfall 03:19
Covered at the station Yet another iteration Staring out your window Never cared about your kinfolk One time I told a little story But it seems you didn't get the allegory It's not the fault of the waterfall for calling me in The candy coated your every flaw with sugary skin Mixing tequila with tylenol Absolving my innocence, I sense, has long since been missing Renovations are underway But I grew complacent the other day I'm still picking at the process Wishing for a little progress Meanwhile I'm drowning in the details And I'm sounding off in psycho-therapeutic emails It's not the fault of the waterfall for calling me in The candy coated your every flaw with sugary skin Mixing tequila with tylenol Absolving my innocence, I sense, has long since been missing It's not the fault of the waterfall for calling me in The candy coated your every flaw with sugary skin Mixing tequila with tylenol Absolving my innocence, I sense, has long since been missing Somebody help me It's not the fault of the waterfall for calling me in The candy coated your every flaw with sugary skin Mixing tequila with some tylenol Absolving my innocence, I sense, has long since been missing

about

This EP was written and recorded all by lead guy Kevin McClain in a cramped bedroom in North Philly with a shitty USB mic. It is, by all means, Not Perfect.
