Love The Supernatural

Oh something is lurking behind my back
I’m pushing the thoughts out, my eyes on the path
The light disappears and it’s suddenly cold
If only they’ll kill me before I grow old
And maybe they’re evil and maybe benign
And maybe it’s literal, maybe a sign
The demons don’t only exist in your head
And how can they kill you when you’re always dead?
Love the supernatural
Love the supernatural
Love until your heart is full of the darkness
Earthly distraction will hurt in the end
There’s time to accept and there’s time to pretend
The loneliest spirit it wants to switch sides
And how can your soul suffer once you have died?
Love the supernatural
Love the supernatural
Love until your heart is dried and shriveled up
I’ve heard this is all part of the masquerade
If everything’s pointless why am I afraid?
A ghost is inside us as soon as we’re born
We all have to wait ‘til our final form
Love the supernatural
Love the supernatural
Love until your heart is full of the darkness deep in us all
Love the supernatural
Love the supernatural
Love until your heart is full of the thoughts in your head

Call Yourself A Nihilist
03:03

You’ve been looking in the wrong place
You’re just searching ‘til you’ve seen what you wanted to see
Nothing’s for you in the shadows
Any creatures there are only the ones you perceive
Grow up, move out, get a job
Lose the act of the macabre
All you problems never amount to all that much
Call yourself a nihilist
Bedroom eyes at the abyss
That’s no way to get a girl
What we’ve learned is you’ve learned nothing
All your gloom and doom is what your employers don’t need
You’ve been looking in the shadows
Maybe that’s why you’re alone in the turbulent sea
Make friends with your manager
Move to somewhere sexier
Companies tend not to go and romanticize death
Call yourself a pessimist
Lusty stares at the abyss
That’s no way to get a raise

Afraid Of The Dark
02:32

Screaming in silence, things you can never comprehend
We’ll get there some way and if you’re frightened of the dark it’s okay
What’s that behind you? Hopefully you’ll never see it in the light
It’s all your fears manifested in things that go bump in the night
Earthly distractions will keep the creepy crawlies off your back
And if you’re lucky then they’re holding off attacks
‘Cause they’re waiting for the moment you lose the path
The path is beset with such malice and taunts
And if it’s true love that you want then it’s other’s love that you’ll haunt
So speak in a language not heard for a thousand years or more
We’ll get there someday and if you’re frightened of the depths it’s okay
Don’t lie to yourself, soon everything is swallowed by blackness
No one’s gonna judge you if you are scared of the dark
You’re scared of the dark
Out of the black and into the blue
Pretend the song’s all about you
Oh screaming in silence, things you can never comprehend
We’ll get there some way and if you’re scared of the dark that is allowed here
Here there’s no judgment, there is only pain and suffering
We’ll get there someday
And if you’re frightened of the dark we can never
Hold you from feelings forever
Don’t be scared to say if you’re feeling
Frightened of the dark it’s okay

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.
