Don't Get Me Wrong 03:40
lyrics

You’re gonna quit all the foolin In which you are so entwined But for now milk a cow I will try to stick around Well if the women are pretty And the wines are white We’re gonna get it on now On a saturday night Don’t get me wrong You got that sugar now baby Don’t get me wrong You got that sugar now baby We been down this road So many times, so come on This way is boring, got me snoring So I’ll see you babe, so long Well call the committee for the wild wild nights And then you come in, like a shining white knight Don’t get me wrong You got that sugar now baby Don’t get me wrong You got that sugar now baby If you can hear my voice Comin' in through the noise, listen Well it’s time to come alive You never know baby, what we might find When you’re drawn to the calm Of a cigarette song past the dawn Well I’ma singin' to you Cause you’re singin to me all night long Well if the women are pretty And the wines are white We’re gonna get it on now On a saturday night Don’t get me wrong You got that sugar now baby Don’t get me wrong You got that sugar now baby

Why Do I Do? 03:31
lyrics
buy track
Why do I do anything? Why do I speak at all? And why would I fall So in love with you I'm a fool, baby All the things that I've ever owned I'd gladly trade it just to get you Alone again, my baby Why do I do all of these things? Why would I cry when you sing me to sleep at night? Babe I run, but you know I'll never hide from you All the times Babe I told you love Won't compare until you give me back my soul Baby, aw baby I swear i'm not crazy I'm just frustrated Because you're impossible And it's improbable that i'll last much longer My vision gets hazy So come on and save me I just want you to hurry up So I can make you Come home to me Why do I walk down your street Repeatedly uttering your name to a sycamore tree Baby I am weak But I can't worry All the times I held you close Won't compare Until you call me on the phone Baby, baby, baby I swear I'm not crazy I'm just frustrated because you're impossible And it's improbable that I'll last much longer My vision gets hazy, yeah Come on and save me I just want you I just want you Yeah, i just want you I just want you Aw...

Look to the stars for the answer What’s your sign? Turn them into your mind, with certainty I will declare who’s your lover just in time Now it’s too late to know She’s got… black magic Under your spell, I drank your potion When you bumped into me last Saturday Forever lover i’ll do anything you want to I would do anything that you would tell me to do You’ve got a hold on me i didn’t even want to But now i feel so free She’s got black magic She’s my black magic girl She’s got black magic Forever lover I’ll do anything you want to I would do anything that you would tell me to do You’ve got a hold on me i didn’t even want to But now I feel so free Black magic girl She’s got black magic She’s my black magic girl She’s got black magic Black magic girl She’s got black magic She’s my black magic girl She’s got black magic

American Spirit Blues 05:36
lyrics

How are you feeling? My love, i am wanting And wishing and hoping That the whole world could agree on something Raised as children To live for our dreams But now surrounding us Is an ever revealing political scheme Wanna tear down these borders Or put up some walls? In a nation divided Will we stand, or will we fall? American spirit blues What about you? American spirit blues, blues..yeah yeah yeah I can feel my blood, it's pumping too I feel my veins popping and my heart is breakin' in two What about you, my baby? What about me? You got these educated answers And such astounding advice But 9 outta my 10 friends They're all strapped to their devices I look into their eyes to understand why We’re all so addicted and lonely and wasted I had a best friend and now he’s dead You did too, you did too Yeah yeah yeah You did too, you did too I feel my heart it’s breakin in two American spirit blues, yeah yeah yeah yeah America, what are you gonna do? Do you feel you're heart breakin And your blood pumpin too? Oh, I'm drowning What about you? I read about the violence And all the souls kept in silence And everyone I meet Holds their own lock and key I climbed some mountains I even swam in the seas But everyone I meet there They've just gotta be free American spirit blues What about you? American spirit blues, blues, yeah yeah yeah I can feel the blood it's pumping too What about the blues? Yeah what about the blues? What about me, what about you? American spirit blues I just wanted to tell you I just wanted to tell you

Our 11th Adventure 04:53
lyrics
buy track
Come a bit closer And speak a bit softer Go further than you have before There’s an adventure Of pain and of pleasure Like no one has seen before Go through the open door We saw pink and green anemones in the sky Singing perfect harmony into the ears of you and I The trees in the forest They all but ignore us We need not impress them today We should pay a visit To the wise and inquisit The answers for what is unknown Tell us what isn’t shown We saw pink and green anemones in the sky Singing perfect harmony into the ears of you and I

I Wanna Know 03:45

Some days I don’t know how How I’ll make it through I’ll have a drink or two I want to love you madly But you are so very far, away I wanna know right now Are you dreaming of our love growing, darling? Treat it tenderly, keep it from the cold You could be my muse so amused Takin off your dress Happy just to touch me, yeah I wanna know, know right now Out of all the wonders of the world You stand like a statue Poised and experienced My memories make love to me You came into my world And left me so delirious I wanna know, know right now Know, know, know, right now

I heard this talking, talking too About how they saw a change in me Let us not worry, worry babe I just can’t stay here inside this place Oh, oh, oh You should know, despite all this silence I’m just the same as i’ve always been There is no time, no time for wasting Let me begin, begin again Oh, oh, oh Yeah the rain fell Yes I remember it well From your dark eyes In the daylight I can see it Yeah, I can still see it all Comin down to the ground I don’t need you, hangin around Maybe our paths diverge from here But I can see this crystal clear All of the things you hold so dear They’re somewhere else, they’re nowhere near Oh, oh, oh Yeah the rain fell Yes i remember it well From your dark eyes In the daylight I can see it Yeah, I can still see it all Comin down to the ground I don’t need you, hangin around This sunshine was covered up by a dark mind Then I knew, I knew this was all That it’d ever be before too long Yeah and the rain fell, I remember it well From the dark skies, down to your dark eyes I laughed when you cried ...I don't know why Yeah the rain fell Yes I remember it well From your dark eyes In the daylight I can see it Yeah, I can still see it all Comin down to the ground I don’t need you, hangin around

The Party's Over 05:34
lyrics
buy track
I know it’s hard to let go From the past you loved so But like a ticking clock It never stops The rhythm of the world There’s a city In your country By the sea, naturally Can you hear it calling you, calling you? Can you hear it calling you, calling you? Can you feel it drawing you in? When the party’s over Will you kiss it goodnight? Don’t believe the illusion You’re prey for the ticking time Oh, the game of time Oh, ticking time Oh, ticking time A thought to remember A thought to remember You’ve got to believe What your soul believes And see how rare you are Keep a clear vision Trust in your decision Realize, realize Can you hear it calling you, calling you? Can you hear it calling you, calling you? Can you feel it drawing you in? When the party’s over Will you kiss it goodnight? Don’t believe the illusion You’re prey for the ticking time Oh, the game of time Oh, ticking time Oh, ticking time

about

Process took from November 2018 - June 2020.

Longest recording process we have undertaken, but we feel that every project has its own timeline. Given the title of the album and the current turmoil on the world stage it seems that releasing it on July 4th 2020 is perfect timing for it to come out.

credits

released July 4, 2020

Recorded drums, most of the bass, a lot of guitars, some piano/e piano/organ tracking done at Akron Recording Company.

Everything else recorded at The Amazement.

Mixed/Mastered by Spencer Martin.
