You always moved as if people were watching you Always at your best Oh to be used Oh to be kept Failures disguised as success Failures disguised as success Success A chance meeting A chance of regret Regret A show of weakness A chance to forget Let me forget You like only what I dislike in me This mess you’re in to be seen and heard In case you trust

500 miles of saline Sterile, washed clean Body tread pull in Memory she tastes like water All iron and sugar Can we help it, make it feel almost real Short sights, closed minds Sun bleached burnt in Tough hands and Thin skinned (Pain in my heart ) We'll mourn a life we never got I'm here, but I'm not staying Too good for this world It's all radio airplanes Machine men Machine brains Can you help it, make it feel almost real Short sights, closed minds Sweet speak Lay in Soft hands and Thick skinned Sick like Fever Warm as ever Shiver Oh no, oh no I know, I know Oh, no Can we help it, make it feel almost real

What a difference a day makes I’m stupid to be scared, It’s stupid to be scared, So good to be scared Show your hand, sure you can Paid off in a show of hands It’s time you stopped living and start worrying, start worrying, start worrying A surplus of money and deficit of taste Oh it’s just the worst, just the worst, just the fucking worst Did you forget? Oh, forget it You don’t get it Forget me now don’t forget anything ever don’t forget anything ever don’t forget anything ever don’t forget anything ever
5.	Strategies for Living 05:28	lyrics	buy track
There seems to be a way I can’t shake it I’m distracted at best and– I’m doing the best I can. There is no why. Sunday night panic, Thursday’s a lost cause. It soothes you, the weight of it all. We said that we’d return. Well, clearly, we lied. Now we’re here lying, wondering why. A desire to feel no desire, a reason not found. Over or under; the same, after all. Give me some good news. Give me it all. Just a little bit longer, there is no why. It soothes you, consumes you. The crush of it all.

released November 15, 2016

"The lyricism is often as fractured as the cultural psyche, sliced up even more by the sharp-edged noise created by the four-piece’s instruments. It’s perhaps disturbingly and unpredictably timely, but the questions of identity raised in the music’s heavy atmosphere are oddly cathartic, like laughing at your own failures"
