Divine 02:32
Becky girl I love you with all my heart Divine angel I hope we never part This is just the start and I want to keep it going Showing you more love than you ever have been knowing Becky girl there's now way I'm losing you Losing you would be the worst thing I could do Showing me more love than I ever had been knowing So I'm rolling down your river and it's gonna keep flowing. Hope we never part girl hope we never part This is just the start I know this is just the start I'm a big lion you're a soft little lamb Always be mine gonna be your only man Sick sad wolf trying to sneak through my gate Gonna feel pain gonna feel his heart break Don't take kindly to the creatures of the night Trying to steal my little girl get her in their sight Mind set on you and there's nothing I can do Gotta feed my hunger only your love will do. Hope we never part girl hope we never part This is just the start girl this is just the start Divine, divine, divine, angel you're divine Divine, divine, divine, angel you're divine.

You took me for an idiot I am no fool for you I'm sorry to ruin it This plague you put me through Because it made, it made me, it made me mad. I'd always been had Believing that we would be Now you're not beside me We are losing sleep. Now I am falling to pieces I'm leaving and it's the end But none of us are true I'm through with you. I won't be there. I'm through with you.

In a town that never lives Lives a boy on sedatives Trying to reach for breathing holes Stumbling again. In a town that lives the same As every town that lives the same Why'd imagination Become some damned? I walk away into a photograph None of them could ever do the math Who are we to ever see it through I'll just die young, no that ain't what I'll do. So some things have made you mad Let's talk about the times you had It's fun to blame until you Can't blame no more. After all that we've been through I will always think of you Whatever they think about you Just please don't die. I walk away into a photograph None of them could ever do the math Who are we to ever see it through I'll just die you, no that ain't what I'll do.

Morning 02:33
What is this old box I'm living in? What is this old life I'm holding on? I could live in a shell and never know no hell But I can't live in a world like that I've got to be free in my morning. You could leave me if you were here But now I'm singing to no one There's no one here. What is this old life I'm holding on? Watch me come down now like King Kong Being shot from a tower.

Appearance 02:46
Sitting pulled aside I'm gonna sit there with my Hands held high Smiling at disaster. On the road, the road less traveled On the road, it's erasing day On the road, the road let's travel and see What there is to be seen. The season is turning It's cold and gray The leaves have all fallen Now you can see into my window It makes me bitter. I kind of want to be seen It's all being about scene It's all looking good for the scene. I don't care I wish I could say that But I'm so damn worried About my appearance It makes me upset Just to be like that I'd make a bet It's sickening you.

Tomorrow 03:05
What you want may never come Don't stay fastened to the ride you're on We may not live another day Let's not let our time slip away. It may not be alright At least we had tonight Why now sleep in sorrow? You said there will be tomorrow.

Selected Praise for EP:

"A pleasant surprise... hearty, fuzzy guitar-rock, full of introspective and tortured travelogues, breakdowns and reminisces." - NPR Music

"The songs on [the] EP recall much of the greatness of rock and roll, stuffs it into bedroom recordings and ties it together with a constant grit." - DCist

"An addictive, evolving listen that stands up - and positively encourages - return spins." - Heavier Than Air
