Can I come over tonight? I got in another stupid fight and I can't stand this house anymore. So I head down south looking for somewhere safe to sleep tonight. I know the the door is always open, I know you're not here to judge, I know this is exactly what I need, I appreciate your love. But times will change, people die, I'm living in the past and I have these memories and lessons learned. I'll make the most of what I have. I set my alarm for 4pm so I can watch the Tigers at 4:05, I crank it up just like you, but this room is missing two. I guess these memories will have to do, and I'll try to live a life that would have made you proud. Sometimes everything falls apart, but I have your lessons in my heart... AND OUR TEAM! OUR TEAM! I set my alarm for 4pm so I can watch the Tigers at 4:05, I crank it up just like you, but this room is still missing.

They say insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting things to change, if that's true it's fair to say. We have lost our fucking minds, what are we still doing here? If we were sane we would have left, instead I'll drink another beer. And rant about how I thought we had it all figured out this time Turns out we're just freezing, broke, and completely lost our fucking minds, but we have our pride. At least we're having a good time, laugh off another cold, depressing night You have to have a sense of humor, or life would be a major fucking bummer. We have lost our fucking minds, what are we still doing here? If we were sane we would have left, instead I'll drink another beer. And rant about how I thought we had it all figured out this time Turns out we're just freezing, broke, and completely lost our fucking minds, but we have each other.

One year has gone by and we've gotten far without each other, you've got your ring, I've found what I'm looking for, so why's this have to be so awkward? You used to lie in my arms and tell me I was something special, you used to lie to my face. Now I know it's true, anyone would do, anything to cling to. Now I know it's true, that anyone would, something to make you complete. What's this coming to when we don't value basic human interaction, fake smile and a wave then walk the other way, I'm too grown up to live this way. I won't settle again, I don't want your heart back, I just miss my friend, now we're not even facebook friends, we're not even facebook friends. You used to lie in my arms and tell me I was something special, you used to lie to my face and tell me that I meant something. I don't want your heart back, I just miss my friend, and now we're not even facebook friends. I don't want your heart back, I just miss my facebook friend, a facebook friend.

Recorded in January 2013 just as a little demo to get our music out there, hopefully you like it.

We will be using this thing to help us get some shows on an upcoming tour to a town near you, hit us up if you may want us to come play your garage, living room, barn, candy shop, etc.
