Lyrics Tried to remember a story I can barely get to work on time, the sad truth is uninviting just riddled in your mind Miles away from anyone, even if you stand in close I'm counting days for hours and I miss the days the most oh~ No need to think about it I'll ride this out through many waves I got so used to miming I wouldn't know what to (Say it Say it) Just don't hold your breath (Delay it Delay it) Oh all the stress, these sunsets I don't mind Yet the difference is in disguise (Say it Say it) It's not what it seems (Delay it Delay it) So far in dreams so just say whats on your mind from this lonely place we hide In spite of what you are, good times with this guitar but feels like i'm living in place Don't start, don't stop I don't want this anyway So hard for me to see, this world a part of me well cmon let's just get to the point Movin, Groovin you wont make it to the end (Wooo, yenno you did) Thought up a nuke to bomb the tension feels like i'm waging mental war got all platoons to my attention just leave me screaming out for more Oh i'm dazed, Is it true? saving, wont cave in so lets hold off lets hold off x3

Lyrics They'll say that's fine don't waste your time or interrupt my state of mind now I can barely find a use for these things So late in twine, this need to bind believing that it's all fine well i've been dealing with the view since 15 Well maybe it's true this is the changing of the seasons or maybe it's true we just need something to believe in through cloudy days and tidal waves we'll cling to follows with no one thinking of the truth leaves no tomorrow but so what~ Don't wanna let you slide x4 Alright it's cool, i'll play the fool no need to stay so in tune countless hours lead to days of the same news bleeding, divide, a storm of crimes, a legion of a lost time well I see the end is in view Well maybe it's true that i'm incline to find some reasons or maybe it's true we just need something to believe in through cloudy days and tidal waves we'll cling to follows with no one thinking of the truth leaves no tomorrow Don't wanna let you slide x4

Lyrics Lows give lead to motives so just, try and move your feet this shit should it be happening still in a different town where we can meet I'll go through all the motions, and still I contemplate defeat well in close this waiting I loath it's gonna take me where I wanna be instead you got me So wrong watch all these dreams pass by and i'm still deciding it feels so wrong no I don't need to try i'll just save it for another life well so long, goodbye to the days inside living in this lie well this time, i'll be taking my end, i'll be leaving again i'll be needing a friend no idle living it So i'll be sitting alone, the sad part now i'm no closer to home, i've got it now i'll just drift to the tones cause it's the same longevity that's part time killing me Why is this happening still? where we can go and just lay around why is this happening still? Is this just a playground even though we can find a way to be closer and in sound we simply choose to just drift away it's the state of fading out well lately, the things that I don't show creep in from all the feelings that wont go but it's just lately, things don't feel the same but it's just lately, i'm fooling all that stay but it's just lately, I think it's just lately, but it's just lately Oh I just lie~ So wrong watch all these dreams pass by and i'm still deciding it feels so wrong no I don't need to try i'll just save it for another life well so long, goodbye to the days inside living in this lie well this time, i'll be taking my end, i'll be leaving again i'll be needing a friend no idle living it

Lyrics Sorry it's so hard to fight this feeling it's like they don't know us anymore we're outcasted well thank god I don't need to buy no cigarettes cause i'd be out here smoke and ash i'm thinking this kind of life won't ever change just living so hectic all rearranged (hectic all rearranged) I'm thinking the brand new cars, won't really matter just living the same dull life in different patterns x3 Then she said don't fight this feeling of love~ (don’t try) she warned don't give in, don't give up~ (oh oh, i’m talkin bout love~) don't fight this feeling of love (don’t try) just go and get peace from above Well i'm one with the universe so I think it's time to make some changes so lean, maybe codeine if it ain't healthy it's bad well maybe I don't want that because i'm too depressed turning circles, it's simple, don't let them in, just keep your heart out I guess, i'll never tell, it seems to work for yourself~ self~ Then she said don't fight this feeling of love~ (don’t try) she warned don't give in, don't give up~ (oh oh, i’m talkin bout love~) don't fight this feeling of love (don’t try) just go and get peace from above You can stay inside or sit idle by and decide living on the grind but the bottom line is this life?

Lyrics Dreaming never satisfied this feeling i'm glad there's something to push through dreaming out of hope right to the ceiling life has left me black and blue but all I know is I want to, all I know is I want to Dreaming never cared if I could get there just holding out here, day by day now even I know there's a higher meaning soulless drifting on this wave but all I know is I want to, all I know is I want to Yeah~ I'm okay it's hard to know who's standing there when I can see you're fine x2 Even though I can tell myself to remember Does it really mean survival by myself? Even though I can tell myself to remember Dreaming never satisfied this feeling~~~ i'm glad there's something to push through well even I know there's a higher meaning life has left me black and blue well all I know is I want to, all I know is I want to (repeat)

Lyrics See you on the otherside Guess that's where I wanna be I know i'm always wasting time It's not hard to see It's too confusing on my mind Yet it's always around I'm losing all but hope inside And I know, it's insane But I hope, maybe one day Oh one day~ one day~ I hope maybe one day~ I hope i'm gonna get it right Cause all i'm losing is time~ It seems it's always right behind And abusing this life It's too confusing on my mind Yet it's always around I'm losing all but hope inside And I know, it's insane But I hope, maybe one day Oh one day~ (repeat)

Hey I guess it's over, you've stayed for a while seems like it was yesterday, so bent out of style Just home, taking names, playing games the usu So (Take your, Take your) Time To say the least or so, doesn't really matter to me at all Not much the same, wont change wont change the game i'm sure but hey~ I'm glad it's over (Thinking up lyrics because I didn't write anything down) Waited on this day, much time has ticked by Shoeglaze or Groove Corner I gave it try Now, I gotta wait i've slaved for these tunes So (Take your, Take your) Time To say the least or so, doesn't really matter to me at all Not much the same, wont change wont change the game i'm sure but hey~ I'm glad it's over To say the least or so, doesn't really matter to me at all *Sigh of relief that I finished the album*

about

It's Time's Birthday today and I felt what better way to celebrate than to release the demos for this project absolutely for free! This album has gone through so many changes and ideas to where it is now. The Demos for it, were at one point going to be the actual album before Darin Rudd stepped in and said I should take it to a studio and do it properly. After meeting with the lovely boys of Winnipeg's own "Collector Studios" the rest is kind of history

For a deep dive on some of the finer concepts and ideas behind the songs I did this lovely interview with Graeme Houssin and BNB Studios where I talked about the album in detail for almost an hour! the link is right here it was a beautifully shot talk with a lot of joking around with some of my favourite people.

As for the demos! Some of them are pretty rough but for me that's a large part of the charm, I was really attached to these versions of the songs for a very long time and it took some getting used to hearing the changes made in Studio but it was all for the best in the end. I thought it might be fun to give some fun little backstories and insights about the songs and the making of as you go through the tracklisting!

If you want the full effect of the album I wrote out a storyboard in each song!

Thank you everyone for your love and support through this whole endeavour it's been an amazing journey watching this album grow and it really means alot <3 - Jeremy
