lyrics

On closer inspection
We're all just reflections
A mirror to our open mind
The clumsiest metaphor
Still might be useful for
Poets who don't have the time

How well do you know me
I want you to show me
what goes on inside of your head
I'd write you a love song
But it would just sound wrong
I'll make something jaded instead
The words that are on it
They're mostly ironic
Sincerity's fell out of style
But deep down in there
You'll see I really care
And I hope that you would stay a while

Oh why am I so torn apart
I won't stop til I start
Maybe I'll work things out
Nobody is born devout

So think about what to say
There is no tape delay
No one can just hit rewind
Just be your own censor
It makes so much sense for
When dealing with thoughts of this kind
I must reprimand your delusions of grandeur
Your musings are not that profound
But I'm one to talk when have I walked the walk?
I can barely keep track of the ground

Oh why am I so torn apart
We all could use some heart
Maybe I'll work things out
For now lets all stand and shout

Sometimes I stare up at the ceiling
And look what happens to fall out
You gotta quantify this feeling
Are you in love or just self-doubt?
The heavens filled with staves and sonnets
It seems the poets, they found the time
If only the whole world was flawless
Then everything will beeee just fine

I can't get blood from a stone
Will you please take me home?

ladies and gentlemen
please your attention
this won't take up much of your time
this plan i've concocted
the boat it will rock yet it very well might blow all your minds
their eyes were prismatic
the room was ecstatic
I savored it while it would last
Imagine their feels
When I had to reveal
I was just blowing smoke up their ass

Oh why am I so torn apart
I won't stop til I start
Maybe I'll work things out
Nobody is born devout

about

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. ... more
