You Feel Bad About You

1.
in the water gravity holds me down moonlight bends to my eyes there is no sound my breath is endless, though it seems time is stopped and i am found sound asleep someone hates in the back of the room we're all friends but there's not an ear for you i won't lie i hate us too i wish that i could swim this pond is getting too thick again could you please make it thinner now my face feels hot i've given all i've got but im sure you know this i want you to know this must i say these things? you won't walk with me the saddest moment we're without a purpose and how am i today when the lights tighten? with the insects inside them to patronize you and i i wish i could swim in this pond it's hurting me again could you please say i'm better? Lyrics, first stanza is Brent, the rest of the song is Justin

We All Know 03:50
pretended like a window it would take everything you have to not see through this fool for now i'll sit between you two and argue on both sides why we're blue i could crawl inside what would i even do if i woke up okay? put myself where i can't feel abuse it's so warm, i'm colder than you let it drain so no one goes insane we all know why we all feel the same let it drain so no one goes insane we all know why we all feel the same let it drain and hope that it helps i'm so bored it's hard, hard to tell Lyrics, Justin

Bermuda 06:19
i've heard these same sounds but some sing too sweet to decline lately i find it hard to try 'cus everything gets WORSE IN TIME when it rains it pours (the feelings broke and worn) the water collects on open sores (like we're all stillborn) you took it for granted the grains of salt, the paint on the walls the clouds above, the rain that falls it cleans us all Lyrics by Justin, except for last stanza which is by Brent

Saccharine 04:45
i'd always stop at the trees a white room, blank tv the dew would stay so long but that's alright i'd wait, i'd listen there was so much fun pictures aren't enough no one could see a thing better meant nothing hey, i know you want to go but don't you like your play clothes? it's okay the stains can show no doubt hangs on you so warm inside your homes for you a waste of tinfoil hopes i like these thoughts my streets were soft from these boys' shoes that i outgrew but they still fit Lyrics, Justin

Should Sleep 04:44
so warm but i can't stay discomfort that warrants the days i pick words for your eyes your blind my arms are tired from wasted time I know that should sleep but in my dreams i am weak i need something to make up for what i lack knock me out but i'd still ask "what's in your hand?" why don't we stop trying? 'cus i can't sit still i'm a hypocrite who is not special i know that i won't sleep the ceiling is always cruel I'm too deaf to hear if anyone's sincere and if they are they will go far away from here although i'm bruised i still feel everything anyone can say that they're a friend Lyrics, Justin

Clovers 03:17
of all the darkness that covers your will what is it you want to make me feel? so sparingly you mutter and kill what is it you want to make me feel? And if there is some reason in youth i'm way too scared to fail in truth the force fed guilt that imprisoned you is moving freely all the way through...me of all the darkness that covers your will what is it you want to make me feel? so rare you rest where others only kneel in the rain we'll all fade and peel of all the darkness that covers your will what is it you want to make me feel? time can heal what was blind and real but it hurts as bad as it always will Lyrics, Justin

Bunny 03:04
i don't force my regrets you're porcelain dolls calendars act as gauze we say it works strum a chord i am a mess, i thought it worked and i hope that i could honestly care less that she's up north nothing's new to pioneer now used taboo has sunk to depression's prowess i know that all bunnies hop living, breathing, happy and content reaching, starving, pointless and dejected Lyrics, Justin
10.
as she stands next to me her heart as heart as pillows and i believe that shame is in the eye of the beholder but i guess we're wired to be sad all the eyes would only scare me but it's not so bad and someone should owe me prettiness can trump almost anything and i will be jealous and not as fun i'd never think that she would even consider but as we rest we wrestle wet blankets it's easy to avoid the blame when it all looks the same life against a grey scale never bleeding outside of the frame and in my own way, i'm wasting away and i fear that what i do won't mean anything to anyone you could say that i'm forgetful i hope that i can improve it's not beyond me please take me back to where i remember when we had a blank slate i know she'll break my heart for normalcy penelope, so clean in utero we bleed it's all just not for me Lyrics, Justin

These songs were written over the course of a few months. It is the first thing we have ever made that feels like a cohesive piece, something that is a snapshot of a certain time. Every song was self recorded and produced in Salamanca and Fredonia, NY by Justin. It is our hope that you will feel a little worse about yourself after hearing all 10 tracks.
