Damaged on the Inside I can't love another She said you gotta keep on trying Easy target, Complicated Neglected, I'm undetected Repetition, Gimme something new I was raised on a steady diet Preparation for a rejection And now I'm in denial Don't know what the hell I'm here for She comes just a little closer Oh boy my heart begins to race Don't fuck this up, just be cool Either way, I never find a way It's getting hard to be so inadequate Easy target, never quite get that And I'm still in denial Nevermind, never wanted to be so...

Gotta Go 02:06
Sitting all alone Waiting by the phone The girl that I stalk Whilst I touch my cock I’m a little shy I can't deny I’m out of luck But I don’t give a fuck Hey Gotta Go Gotta Fucking Go Feels like a dream Never what it seems I played my ace By coming on her face When I turned my back Kicked my ball sack What do I do? I’m not fucking over you.

They come at me screaming, shouting Swinging fists, flying kicks Insisting this is how it is No remorse, I'll light a torch You've lost the plot You're all blind leading the blind Am I overcompensating? They tell me thinking's overrated If this is moshing, I'd rather be tossing Stay out or go in - Don't Push Me Into The Pit Come at me with your attitude Young guns that are half my age Mistaking their freedom for - This scene looks like the fucking purge It used to be about the love and not the hate It used to be about each other and one another I can't believe they took our sound, but left the spirit It's time to take this back for everyone who still believes in

I don’t wanna grow up, I’ll just lie here in my bed Another breakup song committed to my head Existential deadlock got me questioning why I’m here I don’t know what I want, don’t know what I need, All I know is that I don’t know… You pretend that you don’t care When deep inside you do When the anger and frustration’s overwhelming You’re ignoring… I act like it doesn't bother me Cos if I do I'll bother you I'll bother you and bother me And we'll go bother someone new now We're giving up and giving in I walk these streets at night This city’s always “in-progress” You’ve got the rich, the very poor, the middle class squeezed in between I’m not a beneficiary, liability personality My heart’s a horcrux and its bleeding down my sleeve Stop giving up and giving in

At your service, I didn't get your name This awkward silence punctuated by a game Tell me of all your travels and I'll swallow you whole Vicariously living through the thousand tales you've told And by the fireplace the journey unfolds Heroes and villains have their rightful place Fortified by memory, weakened by a spell There's magic everywhere, I've got some rooms to spare I keep my door open at night You never know who might come knocking These thieves and heroines need shelter The innkeeper runs helter skelter Hello there, didn't see you come in Did you walk through the front door, climb in through the wind? My abode fills up so fast, don't know where I'm gonna begin Shelter and comfort for the lost and the weary The fireplace roaring, the flagons are flowing A knife in the dark unsuspectingly brandished Disarmed and helpless, forced to yield Take everything you want, I've got nothing I need

Rendezvous 02:46
Reenacting conversations in my mind Where I make a pointed comeback Not charming, why am I running? I let you have your way Get away get away I’m all so lost in my head I didn’t get to say Darling we should stop pretending Turn it up this is getting confusing You don’t like me I don’t like you either This rendezvous wasn’t meant for you Thinking of clever things to say To a condescending girl Seems like a waste of my time now Insulting, compensating I let you have your say I’m a wreck, come and wreck me now Your voice’s in my head Was it that you never got laid?

Tyson 03:40
I wasn't there when they met you the first time I wasn't there when they carried you home But still I feel like I've loved you my whole life And now Now you're gone, wish that I'd gone with you A big strong name for a big strong guy Yet gentle, sweet and loving One of a kind, you're always on my mind I'll never shake this feeling The bestest furry in the world I hope they're taking good care of you up there I'll sing my loudest now, I want you to know You left some big paws to fill I'll never get to see your face again I'll never get to walk around with you again I'll never get to play with you again But you'll never be in pain again All dogs go to heaven They say that all dogs go to heaven But it was heaven when you were here

about

Once in a generation, a modest, unheralded album comes along that speaks from the heart to the deep concerns we all share about life. The music within provides a beacon, a guide, a call-to-arms for all who listen. Approaching music like this with an open heart and mind makes the world seem more miraculous, and all but the most casual listener cannot fail to be moved, changed or filled with a new determination to live life with a heightened consciousness.

This is not that album.

This is an album of 7.

From our hearts to yours.

This Won't Save the World.

enjoy.

xx
