We need a savior (don’t you forget it)
Full of piss and vinegar (don’t you forget it)
The wastes of the world they can forget it (don’t you forget it)
Just play that song again (don’t you forget it)
And don’t you forget it, yeah
Can’t break this stallion, can’t break this stallion, can’t break this stallion
So don’t even try

Rachel I’m frankly amazed
That you so plain and innocently phrased
That demons at school are following you around, around
Oh Rachel you’re joking I hope
Cause how can such a normal person cope
With such spooky things that you claim to bring about, about
Oh Rachel it’s quite a surprise
That you don’t seem to recognize
The danger you’re in, I don’t think you’ll win this round, this round
Don’t let ghosts and ghouls drag you through the mud
Don’t tell your teachers your thirst for blood.
Rachel I'm frankly amazed (Rachel I cannot explain)
Rachel there's trouble ahead (Rachel you're dead!)
Rachel I'm frankly amazed (Rachel I cannot explain)
Rachel it's quite a surprise (Rachel you can't recognize)
Rachel you're joking I hope (Rachel there's methods to cope)
Rachel there's trouble ahead (Rachel you're dead!)
Rachel I'm frankly amazed
That you've been made to live your life this way

She Stares At Airplanes

She stares at airplanes
She wonders where they’re going
And where they come from and who’s inside them, yeah
She stares at airplanes
She wonders their destination
Their motivation for transportation so high above the clouds
And I wish I could stare with her
And I will one day stare with her
And I wish I could stare with her
And I will one day stare with her
She checks the skyline
She reads the vapor bylines
The ghostly whispers of who has come and gone
She says it’s high time
She makes a contribution
Says ‘you don’t know, I’m gonna go make something of myself’
And I wish I could go with her
And I will one day go with her
And I wish I could go with her
And I will one day go with her

Once more we fight and bicker all day
Once more all hell was safely contained
I’ve yet to adequately explain
How any shred of patience remains
If you object for no reason
Then you object just the same
If you object in all seasons
It’s why I push you away
Your transformation now is mundane
Your fuming harpy’s always the same
I’ve yet to adequately explain
What justified my efforts to stay
If you object for no reason
Then you object just the same
If you object in all seasons
It’s why I push you away
If you object for no reason
Then it can only cause pain
If you consider it treason
Then make some effort to change

Up from the ground I’m gonna bring it to life then I’ll shuffle it back to the living
Something is wrong with the variables it’s a body too large for its heart
So maybe I should just accept that I’m an inadequate necromancer
Take a new direction, stare at my reflection, rip it apart
Oh honestly this shouldn’t affect me so much, it’s the last in a long string of failures
The brevity’s not the part’s that’s getting me down it’s the pattern that it represents
Oh maybe I would have more luck if I became fundamentally different
Gotta trust the process, sever all your losses, give it a chance
Oh some things are better off dead
And some things are worse when you’re pulling on the thread
The data tends to disagree
If only all this science stuff came easily
Technically you could never call it alive, it had only the dimmest cognition
Nevertheless I wrote it off as a loss for the time and the body parts
It’s easy just to take a torch to the lab, left burned beyond recognition
Gotta trust the process, sever all your losses, that’s what I meant
Without a heart you’re just stumbling
Without a heart you’re just a machine
Oh some things are better off dead
And some things are worse when you’re pulling on the thread
The data tends to disagree

If all you did was throw a fit, that would be the end of it
But now I see you’re doing fine, everything’s so different
It’s so hard to hold it together
When every day rips out your spine it comforts me to know I still have mine
But I’m quickly losing strength to crawl away
I see the fire that’s in your eyes, and loving you has made me realize
Together we could make it out of this place
I see you now in everything, doesn’t really help the sting
You gotta keep your spirits high, who know what the future brings
You shouldn’t be another footnote
When every day rips out your spine it comforts me to know I still have mine
But soon I won’t have strength to crawl away
I’ve seen the fire that’s in your eyes, and loving you has made me realize
We never could have made it out of this place
And in another world where nothing changes
We never learned a thing, we’re still the same
And if I went there I could never stay, it never would last
These sorts of things they always find a way
If all you did was throw a fit, that would be the end of it
You handled things so gracefully, maybe I should take some tips
But never say never forever
When every day rips out your spine it comforts me to know I still have mine
But I’m quickly losing strength to crawl away
I see the fire that’s in your eyes, and loving you has made me realize
Together we could make it out of this place
Yeah (x3)

Tiger Castle Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
"Music that makes you wanna play Tony Hawk's Pro Skater."
Power pop but dumber, pop punk without
the baggage. If you like harmonized guitar leads, fast dense songs, sometimes being really dreamy, air-guitaring at the back of the basement show crowd, Jeff Rosenstock, Rozwell Kid, Diarrhea Planet, or PUP, you'll probably like us. Go Birds.
