If time is money then I've got nothing
Instead of saving I spend it all on everyone, on everyone
If time is money I should be investing
Instead of waiting I'd spend it all with anyone, with anyone
Obsessions that bind and divide
Are just transient
But logic will satisfy
As means to an end
It's not enough
To sit around and laugh with you
If neither of us see this through
Because after all
Our affections only fade away
And there's not much here that we can save
I might not be right
So tell me I'm wrong
Obsessions don't have to define
Who we are inside
But logic cannot divide
A heart from mind

I've been thinking that maybe I'll start learning spanish
And in dreams I'll speak fluently, probing my subconscious:
¿Adonde quisiera ir?
I swear I'm not crazy despite all the evidence
I've just been faking my knowledge and competence
Convincingly personify the qualities you admire
The seeds are sown and as time unfolds
You might notice we're growing old
And I don't know if I have a soul
Who's in control?
If I wasn't so lazy, would anything be different?
I'd still be complaining while everyone's complacent
Convincingly personify the qualities they admire
The seeds are sown and as time unfolds
You might notice we're growing old
And I don't know if I have a soul
Who's in control?
If I wasn't so lazy, how could anything be different?
I'd still be debating a better way to pay rent
Needlessly dissatisfied with the identities that I've aquired
The seeds are sown and as time unfolds
You might notice we're growing old
And I don't know if I have a soul
Who's in control?

Drifting blissfully
Communications have been severed
Wishing selfishly
I wish I could float away forever
If you hear a scream
Don't worry it's me
Just trying to sleep
Oh I know...
I keep trying to wake from this dream
But no matter how hard I scream
I'm lucid and everything feels surreal
Stretching endlessly
What happens to matter when time just unravels?
If you hear a scream
Don't worry it's me
Just trying to sleep
Oh I know
Its only a dream
As real as it seems
These reflections of me
Oh I know
If you hear a scream
Don't worry it's me

Sirens serenade city streets
Stoic citizens without sympathy
I want to understand
Complicit reticence
But nothing is making sense
I used to be so scared of ending up all alone
But now that I’m surrounded by people I still feel I'm on my own
Vengeance vindicates violence
Victims evacuate their virtues
I want you to understand
That I'm not built for this
Pluralistic ignorance
I used to be so scared of ending up all alone
But now that I’m surrounded by people I still feel I'm on my own
I am surrounded but I am separate
The crowd is drowning me out leaving the truth unsaid

Is there really any difference
Between induction and plain truth
No matter how closely you listen
You only hear what you can use
Take this with a grain of salt
Because my words are nicer than my thoughts
I don't mean to be so distant
But I'd rather be any where than here
You can laugh at any instant
But I never know when you're sincere
Take this with a grain of salt
Because my words are nicer than my thoughts
Take this with a grain of salt
Because my words are nicer than my thoughts
Take this with a grain of salt
Since affection is fleeting after all

I never try to occupy my mind
Because I'm afraid of what I'll find
I'd rather waste the day away
Pretend life is just a game
Because all efforts are just in vain
Did you ever wonder why nothing feels alright?
Just take your time you know everything is a lie
That's all we need to get us by
Though we make the same mistakes
I'll be the one to bear the blame
For some reason I can't explain
It never occurred to me that I will always be your enemy
We take our time
And wonder why
We never feel the same again
We take our time
And wonder why
Some things can't be explained
It never occurred to me that I will always be your enemy
We take our time
And wonder why
We never feel the same again
We take our time
And wonder why
Some things can't be explained

Great band and the nicest guys from Brazil! Not only do all their records rule, but they KILL IT live. PLEASE COME BACK TO THE US!!!

The harmonies reel me in, plus the two guitar parts complement each other really well. We played together at KFN and saw them play at Golden Tea House, great people! Check them out!

We were listening to this EP on repeat and then got lucky enough to play with Lions in a south philly basement. Great dudes and a really tight live show -- go see them next time they play!
