I'm moving on with the old high school Bull shit I'll find what I want to do I'll miss this town and the snow and the Sidewalks caved in during winter Onwards and upwards I'll keep looking forward If you won't let me look forwards I'll keep looking down At my feet to see them standing so Spread apart I can't regain my balance I've got a destination Finally, we can meet up again one day I can see the line that I shouldn't cross And I can see my stop but I won't get off I'll stay firmly planted right where I stand I cannot leave until you let go of my hand Me-downs is all we wore to that party But came home and put all of my books on display This application process is killing me I can't wait to get accepted for university This summer's my last I know it'll be a blast But my friends I must go my heart draws at last I'll move far away I'm not coming home My parents will miss me but they'll call by phone And write me and text me and send me notes I hope my friends can stay as my own When all is said and all is done Please say that you'll miss me and that I'll always be your number one

This song is an apology I'm sorry for the past couple months I didn't know where I was going Or how I was doing All I could offer Was clueless incentives And more than one shattered window My only parties were littered with The unwashed clothes I came with Unfinished conversations Some kind of transformation Often enough I heard the phrase "We need to talk." I still remember us blasting brand new In your car that was brand new Just to get a little down time Well I guess I got a lot of down time With fighting off deadlines By messing around with friends of mine We all decided to grow up But maybe I decided I should just give up So I'm sorry Niko, sorry Evan, Sorry Dave, JJ, Rob, and Kevin I've been a little less romantic Now more sycophantic I've been letting you down, down, down Been letting you down, down, down And I've been giving up, up, up On myself This song is an apology for Everything I've done I'm just One shitty friend and son I just Hate who I've become

about

Recorded in one night, each song is only one take with guitar/vocals and no editing/mixing/mastering.
I want people to hear how I store these songs: raw and on my phone.
One day these two, along with some of my other songs and some new ones, will become full band songs on a full-length LP.
Thanks to:
Niko Pappas
JJ Shankhour
Brittany Zak
I love all three of you (albeit in different ways), even if you all find it hard to love each other.
