about

We had a little extra time during the recording of this new ep and we asked John if he wouldn't mind setting up a mic and letting Ben do a live acoustic take of "wasting away". We weren't sure exactly what we would use it for but now is a perfect time for ya'll to have it.
Art can be something so essential to our well being in a time like this and we hope you find inspiration in anything you listen to or see- don't be afraid to create <3

-Scott, Ben, and Keith

lyrics

"Give me a reason to keep coming home"
I heard her scream on the telephone
"Give me a reason to keep calling back"
I spent too long trapped inside my own head

People say I'm wasting, people say I waste my time with you
People say I'm wasting all my time, my precious time

Give me a reason to feel all alone
I've burned my fields where my demons grow
Gave them a reason to keep crawling back
I spend too long trapped inside

'Cause I'm wasting away, away with you

Give me a reason, a reason to stay with you
I need a reason, a reason to stay with you
The fucking reason, reason I stay with you
Is 'cause I want to
