Walking 03:32
Feels like I've been walking for a couple of days Feels like I've been walking just to get away I know that you'd rather the dust between your toes Pretend like you've forgotten the other place it goes I know you hide your secrets, go and grit your teeth It blows, the wind outside, out from underneath I've tried, so damn hard To make it work, but I can't Try walk faster, pick up your feet Don't slow down to enjoy the scenery I'm stuck behind some dick in a caravan The size of the trailer doesn't determine the man I sit and I watch, the creek beds fill up You sit and you fill up another cup I'm worried that my car will break down I haven't seen anyone for about three hours now I sit and I watch the rain turn the road to mud My mind is a road that's subject to flood

Coober Pedy 03:20
Feels like I'm back to square one All I wanted from you was to overcome All the differences that you left for me Move out to the big city Leave this town for a busier place Runaway don't leave a trace Don't think of the things you'll leave behind You'll be back, in good time I feel, like I can't win I don't know, where to begin Pack for just in case Don't leave now or be replaced I need a guide for better livin I can get land, for ten grand, in Coober Pedy I can get land, for ten grand, in Coober Pedy I can get land, for ten grand, in Coober Pedy I can get land, for ten grand, in Coober Pedy I can get land, for ten grand, in Coober Pedy I can get land, for ten grand, in Coober Pedy

Satan 04:17
Sleeping out with a dusty pillow Daylights eyes peaking through the window A fleeting thought runs through my blood It's dragging me, through the mud As thought drips off my tongue Now I know what you've done Creeping up, behind me each night Someone come and save me Getting up every night again Another bender coming round the bend I'll clean up, I pretend Not fooling you, or your friends Don't go, don't go, don't go Don't go, don't go, don't go Still think bout you about me Still coughing up the memories Moving from place to place Trying not to leave a single trace As thought drips off my tongue Now I know what you've done Creeping up, behind me each night Someone come and save me Don't goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Talking makes the time go quicker There's things that I do, that make me feel sicker If I wanted it that way I would have shown it more I hate exceeding your expectations, still sleeping on the floor Cuz we've been here before, I'm good a shutting doors You're the one that waits and I'm the one that takes Staring at the sky will only hurt your eyes Let the day, turn to night As the wind sweeps through the valley I let the tears pull through to Cali I won't try, anymore I can't stand the screaming and shouting The time it takes, to move forward Won't try anymore, won't try anymore You're the one that goes and I will never know I still try to score, five fingers on the floor Losing at the race, time to change the pace We've been here before You sit and stare at me, I'm looking at the sky I couldn't really tell, I know you wondered why Losing at the race, time to change the pace We've been here before

Moana 04:06
One day doesn't make a summer Spring comes and it's never been funner Another autumn is on the way Can't get over yesterday Problems come like waves getting bigger Another winter and I've never felt shitter Another day in my bed I lay Still thinking about yesterday There's nothing to do Got nothing to say Still losing youth Still running away There's nothing to do I wouldn't anyway Still losing youth Wish you would stay One day doesn't make a summer Try to talk and he does a runner Feeling sick it must be winter again Lie awake listening to the rain Stay quiet to keep the peace Still lying through my teeth Dive in to wash the thoughts away Can't keep my mind off yesterday There's nothing to do Got nothing to say Still losing youth Still running away There's nothing to do I wouldn't anyway Still losing youth Wish you would stay

about

All of these songs have gone through many changes as our recording has progressed over this time. We wanted to explore different styles and subgenres to try and find a direction to go in. We worked with many different people, resulting in a few different mixing styles and a variety of different noises that may not have come about without getting others involved and exploring the best way of recording within our means. We are pretty happy with the result! Whilst it isn't perfect, it is a fun reflection of our experience at the time of recording. We are stoked with the connections made and the great times we had working with all the talented people that helped create the finished product along with all the learning and hard work that it took to build this EP.

Thanks so much for checking it out!
