Capsize 03:21
I’ve been sleeping for days and days Let those waves rock me away I've been sleeping for days and days Far from out and far away Signal flare lights up the sky I guess it's a good day to die Far out on a foreign sea Ice scrapes the sky in front of me. Capsized we're all gonna drown Even those that wear the crown Kings and queens and those sorts of things Thieves and cowards all die in this hour Capsized we’re all gonna drown Lost gone and never found Faithless and dead to the world Women, children, boys and girls The band plays on the band never stops There’s no life boats. Nobody’s getting off Women and children old and young Water rising fills their lungs Capsized we're all gonna drown Even those that wear the crown Kings and queens and those sorts of things Thieves and cowards all die in this hour Capsized we’re all gonna drown Lost gone and never found Faithless and dead to the world Women, children, boys and girls Into the blue-gray Don’t you fret there’s no Artifacts from another time For another people left to find Only the mirrors areas are finite We're gone with barely a trace This is not abysmal space

Frequency 03:37
A man walks in the room to see her curve and soon her every move consumes her pitch owns every tune Where’s my thought? not something I had bought where’s my song? keep it rolling all night long Set it in the groove forget it far to soon, return to nothing left except for air and breath like a dove singing from above perched upon for these moments which we long Well, why not? Hey baby I’ll let your frequency raise me Well, why not? Hey baby I’ll let you deprave me A man picks up the tune to hear it swerve and soon its every move consumes its pitch owns every room I’ll let you, you raise me just a pinch of your love you’re perched way up high above God save any lesser man from the touch of your cool hand

Holy fuck yeah, we’re America. One nation divided in hysteria. Do it, don’t stop, til you got it easy. I’ve had enough when I say please please please me. Watch your back, man. Have fun. Careful now, you know we eat our young. Suck your candy swirl twist. Later, You’ll suck a lobbyist. Quarter of a Century Soon there'll be nothing left of me. Quarter of a Century Fame is all I can see Quarter of a Century Soon there'll be nothing left of me. Quarter of a Century Who’s the victim. What was said? Brains seep out of his head. There’s a knocking. At my door. Reactions sink. Expectations soar. I can’t help but think. We’ve been left for dead. Can’t repair the thoughts all in my head. Pill pop music through a periscope. Aimed straight away at our neighbor's home. Quarter of a Century Soon there'll be nothing left of me. Quarter of a Century Fame is all I can see Quarter of a Century Soon there'll be nothing left of me. Quarter of a Century Run piggy run piggy run piggy run Kill that man ‘cause you heard that he had a gun Kill that man ‘cause you heard he was having fun

I masked my face and drew a line in the sand I didn't think that you would understand My heart's a pipeline pumping dinosaurs The undead flock in mass steeped in gore. Thank god it's only Halloween Thank god it's only Halloween Thank god it's only Halloween Thank god it's only Halloween You cut your hair. You're spitting acid. Danger hides below the water so placid. You should be spending time with Betty Ford. Instead your out to wreck your Honda Accord. Thank god it's only Halloween Thank god it's only Halloween Thank god it's only Halloween Thank god it's only Halloween Reading lines from the book of the dead Drinking love potions laced with lead. Hearts of gold melted into computer chips. Lives diluted into video clips.

about

Quarter of a Century is a four track EP that features the frenzied licks of Grant Ertl and the hypnotic picking style of Matt Lilla on guitars. Brian Perry's stone-cold rhythms on the drums drive each song underscored by Devin Hougardy's tight grooves on bass while Mitch Fedie lets fly lyrics of death, romance, life, drama, and late autumn holidays.

Together they are THE KEEP!!!
