lyrics

I’d say, I’d say this wasn’t quite what I wanted.
A new day, I’d say we’ve come upon it, but did I not want it?
I’d pay, for halfway if it meant a sliver of hurt will help the memories stay.

Please, let these memories stay.

I’ve learned this truth, a tinge of blue delays the fadeaway.
Through the years a subtle strain helps keep you here with me.
All consuming? No, I’m choosing to stay halfway.

So I’ll stay this way If it means I feel you by me.
This pain, when halfway, it’s like lightning.
For a moment my life’s brightened by you.
I need halfway to maintain your flame in me.
Halfway helps you remain.

So in times when I need you I won’t be defeated.
‘Cause I know you’re not far off.
You see, I used to think to fully grieve meant that I shouldn’t feel any pain!

But it shows me
War can’t steal you again.
In death you don’t have any pain.
And time can’t push you away.

Just as long as
I’m fully healed halfway.
And that’s exactly where I want to be.
I’m fully healed halfway.
I’m fully healed halfway.

Halfway’s like an open door.

A friend with a reliably fine musical taste posted this album on FB and I wasn't disappointed. Love the guitar sound and the passionate vocals (melodic enough to not pass as screamo or whatever). Punk rock spirit yet with a lot of dynamics (definitely a yes to the Dischord reference) and compact songs that won't leave your head for a long time. Many many great tunes on here but for the moment USMA and Lay Low have to be my favorites! Great band, very happy to have found them! perpendikel
