Justin Leider A fun and energetic debut! Amazing voices, vicious lyrics, lovely instrumentation, and a fiery full-band sound that evokes genres like country music and traditional UK folk styles. Favorite track: Somewhat.

Your Fool 03:21
once I was a komodo dragon once I was so cool once I bit a man I was poison they put me down in a pool to die for once I was a japanese tourist I saw most all of japan once in a while I end up crying broken face in hand I would love you like a brother If brothers weren’t so cruel I would fill my lungs with poison just to be your fool I’ve got furry claws I’ve got scaly spine and I’m praying you’ll be my valentine I am full of blood Turning into wine drink it up so so so divine once I went under the knife I didn’t like my skin once in a hallway half-forgotten you pushed me into sin to die for once I woke to motes of dust slow sun on a summer day once I fell from a great height or did you push me away I would love you like a brother If brothers weren’t so cruel I would fill my lungs with poison just to be your fool I’ve got furry claws I’ve got scaly spine and I’m praying you’ll be my valentine I am full of blood Turning into wine drink it up so so so divine

Capricorn 02:58
I was out late last night buying cigarettes or some dumb thing when you called my phone but I didn't hear it ring you were at my door ready to apologize but when i got home you were already gone you're my Capricorn you're my evening storm and I love you when you got sick you said I was your troubadour when i got fired you helped me to even the score i'm not saying that we've got a perfect thing don't wanna buy you flowers or a wedding ring you're my soft and warm you're my gold popcorn and i love you at some point i don't care what you did with him at some point all my patience just wore thin i know that you've grown to hate yourself but i don't want to be with somebody else you're my fucked up child you're my sick and wild and I love you

Looming 02:44
what's looming to you it terrifies me too there's nothing we can do but try it won't go away or hear the words you say since it's here to stay say hi it's looming ahead consuming you with dread rest your weary head on mine it's coming on fast looks awful like the past when it comes at last you'll find the looming will end one day with all your friends at least we can pretend for now

The Beast 02:56
i'd taken a trip way out east i was shaking hands with the beast i'd fallen out of love with you tomahawk ghost of your smile i swore i would be with you for awhile but i'd fallen out of love with you our bodies kept holding each other well after our souls let go and darling when i took another surprised satan didn't throw me in the hole fiery black hole i knew i shouldn't drink that awful wine or go with her out into the night but i'd fallen out of love with you satan's got a thousand gleaming horns that circle round me out here in the storm since i've fallen out of love with you our bodies kept holding each other well after our souls let go and darling when i took another surprised satan didn't throw me in the hole fiery black hole i wanna be whole i wanna be whole wounded animal of my soul i wanna be whole

Somewhat 03:24
I never wanted something so bad before it must have been your perfume or the alcohol but i went down, down, down those stairs, stairs, stairs said some stupid line to prove i didn't care then things went down like they always do headed 85 on the highway home with you i never knew if I could keep you knew you loved him somewhat deeper i'm sorry for that if i took you away from someone who could be your chance at perfect love at true romance i'm not good at that shit just up for a fuck or two i don't remember much about your family i didn't listen close to what you said to me but i went down, down, down and i watched you float away let a few things slip that you didn't mean to say when things went down like they always do headed 85 on the highway home with you i never knew if I could keep you knew you loved him somewhat deeper i'm sorry for that if i took you away from someone who could be your chance at perfect love at true romance i'm not good at that shit just up for a fuck or two and i'm somewhat sorry if i somewhat fucked you over when i somewhat punched right in the jaw i'm good at self destruction and i'm somewhat sorry if i somewhat lied when i somewhat held you close to my side and said i was confused when i knew just what i did i'm somewhat tired and somewhat bored i'm somewhat walking towards your door i'm somewhat mean somewhat gone somewhat piss drunk on your lawn i'm somewhat somewhat somewhat not over you i'm somewhat somewhat somewhat not over you i'm somewhat somewhat somewhat not over you
