Insane (free) 04:16
if i could have some distance, build up some walls i could use the resistance, i wouldn't think at all in a still standing river, so cold you can't feel i'd cut out my liver, and allow it to heal *i let my life go down when there ain't no one around i lead my sights and sounds all the way into the ground i want to see you but i’m liking the pain i want to hear you but i must be insane* i'd let the knife go down, stop looking for answers it would sink to the ground, by the footprints of dancers in this place far away, i could go insane unaware of the day, surrounded by rain

Let It Go (free) 04:06
fool me once, shame on you, and i was loving true fool me twice, shame on me, and it was plain to see you gave me your heart only to break my own i'm gonna set it down, and let it go *i'm gonna set it down and let you go two times you fooled around so i gotta roll i don't mean to let you down but you gotta know i'm gonna set it down and let it go* you look so nice with the rain falling light on your see-through whites all through the night we made the stars burn bright but in the morning we fight with all of my might i try to hear your plight but then i realize your words they lie like broken butterflies, my heart knows right love should run true as a river goes it bends and falls but never changes flow i go through the door and i don't look back my thoughts move forward and i hold my track i take it all in and it's a beautiful day i only think of you in the crooked way you gave me your heart only to break my own so i'm gonna set it down and let it go

take three drinks and two more pills and you hope that no one can see you fill your blood with fearlessness but you know the mess that you're into *take my hand, i'll twirl you around in the mist of the morning light i'll hold you tight while you're sinking when it all comes down on you i'll lift you up and help you through* go deep down to the wanting sounds and your thoughts that twist you to using this time around may you hold your ground and find the tickle amusing *take my hand, i'll twirl you around in the mist of the morning light i'll hold you tight while you're thinking that it all comes down on you i'll lift you up and help you through*

Slip On By 04:01
i read a story just the other day an ancient play in it people never die every moment they just let it slip away love it lingers like a sigh *you and i my dear every time you’re near i won’t let it slip on by as we walk the night in your eye a light no i won’t let it slip on by* i watch you lie there as the moonlight trickles through the window pane casting particles of light from the sun they hit the moon and then caress your face and time it bends so i can fight see the speed of light is fixed but time can change so that’s my game i hold the moment with all my might enraptured by your vision i embrace the light it grows to flames time i cut down with a knife you awake in the moonlight and suddenly i drop my gaze you ask if everything’s alright you smile and slip on clothes, take my hand and lead the way to go and walk this perfect night
5.
gentle and sideways i turn down my words cause you were coming my way and it cut me in thirds and i think most likely you got what i inferred with the snow falling lightly everything can be heard *it was childish and mean but i had to see while the crystals melted off your warm red face that you were still you, you were still you…* gentle and sideways you walked away i said it's my way of playing a game then you said oh why play when something remains and i said that's why babe cause i feel the same gentle and sideways competition ensued it ended at my place and we discussed all the rules i started to unlace and unravel my cool i showed you how i paid from acting a fool not long ago we found it absurd playing with words not long ago the snow didn’t fall but melted and stalled and for all we know it was there all a long empty but strong and for all we know it can't bend or break and is there when we wake

Tracks "Insane" and "Let It Go" are free! Share with your friends.

“Wrong Turn Into Yesterday” is an EP we’ve completed while in the process of creating our upcoming album. We are releasing this in an effort to cushion the impending collision between you (our beloved listeners) and our full-length debut. By the time you have been properly courted we will drop to one knee and beg that you take our album into ownership and, as in any courtship, there will be surprises upon commitment. We hope by that time you will grow fond of our brazen disregard for certain musical conventions. Songs may do weird things, like start out with the sparkle of even light through forgotten pastures and end up in the bouncing bosom of a rave goddess betwixt and between ecstasy and flashing smoke.

Like little drunken elves making massive wooden toys, we mean to make an album the way albums were made when they had great monetary value. Just the other day Steve waited patiently at the console for 3 hours while I duct taped my acoustic guitar inside a pillow case to soften the sound and then tried on 20 or so pairs of shoes to get the right accompanying foot tapping sound. Meanwhile, Dax was trying to wrap his brain around a vocal section after being asked to sound like a mix between Johnny Cash, a muezzin, and the noise a baby rabbit makes flying through the air in the talons of an owl.

Some songs will be free and for others we will have to hold out the binary tin cup. We are confident that you will find value in our music equal to or greater than a double cheeseburger from McDonald’s, which currently holds the world title for the most valuable thing you can buy for a dollar. Those of you who purchase every song will be supporting the album process and will officially become miniature executive producers. We will include all your names on the album if China has a breakthrough in their development of the world’s smallest font...
