about

the first track off our self-titled EP

lyrics

well you were a lion
claiming what's yours
and i was the sheep
freely complying
tuning out
cliche discomfort
i spent a year smothering what i knew

you were the fork
in my road to sanity
and i was the barricade
still holding back your tongue
circling steps
on your front porch
running through awkward lines and crappy jokes


well if you're going tonight maybe i can catch a ride with you
and we can talk about all the things we did in college
if you're trying to be just a friend tonight, don't bother
because we both know that hasn't gotten us anywhere before


you were the key
to mend my social anxiety
and i was the token
that proved you gave a fuck
but look at us now
terribly consistent
not to say that i'm unconcerned

you were the lotion
of my chapped december skin
i was the bug bite
pesky in the summer
well who are you
to tell me that "it's okay,
everything will sort itself out"

well if you're going tonight maybe i can catch a ride with you
and we can talk about all the things we did in college
if you're trying to be just a friend tonight, don't bother
because we both know that hasn't gotten us anywhere before

but we were young and dumb
and it was fun
and in my fucked up way i want to tell you
i love you, at least platonicly
at least i think so
and through all the fights and all the mess
i put you though, thank you
for everything

well if you're going tonight maybe i can catch a ride with you
and we can talk about all the things we did in college
if you're trying to be just a friend tonight, don't bother
because we both know that hasn't gotten us anywhere before
