What secrets can you keep? How do you fall asleep?
The lies you tell yourself, don’t work on no one else.
Your insecurities, they take a toll on me,
Yeah, she said, yeah she said.
I’m tired of listening, you’re tired of everything.
Don’t ever turn your back, exposes the attack.
And all this nicotine, is finally kicking in.
Yeah, she said, yeah she said.
No I’m never, never, never, never going to leave, I got this card up my sleeve.
Maybe one day I’ll make amend, turn right around, do it again.
No I’m never, never, never coming home to you,
Didn’t sign up for the shit that you do,
Yeah, she said, yeah she said.
I never heard of you, I never wanted to.
So lost in memory, familiar enemies, no.
I heard you’re leaving me, all apologies,
Yeah, she said, yeah she said.
No I’m never, never, never, never going to leave, I got this card up my sleeve.
Maybe one day I’ll make amend, turn right around, do it again.
No I’m never, never, never coming home to you,
Didn’t sign up for the shit that you do,
Yeah, she said, yeah she said.
The lights are low, nowhere to go,
and I feel alone, and I feel alone.
No I’m never, never, never, never going to leave, I got this card up my sleeve.
Maybe one day I’ll make amend, turn right around, do it again.
No I’m never, never, never coming home to you,
Didn’t sign up for the shit that you do,
Yeah, she said, yeah she said.

Have It All
03:16
|
|

|
Let it in, let it out, let it go.
Say the word, join the herd, lose your soul.
And I don’t believe things I cannot see.
And the ghost ‘round here just don’t follow me.
It’s not what’s real, not what you feel, but what you know.
You can have it all, you can have it all,
And I won’t stop.
You can have it all, you can have it all,
And I won’t stop, I won’t, I won’t, yeah.
Do some shit, raise some kid, make a home.
Picket fence, the new trend on your phone.
And you won’t find me, upon bended knee,
To be praying to higher fantasy,
It’s not what’s real, not what you feel, but what you know.
You can have it all, you can have it all,
And I won’t stop.
You can have it all, you can have it all,
And I won’t stop, I won’t, I won’t, yeah.
They are changing us, playing games with us and they won’t stop.
They’re afraid of us, we are dangerous and we won’t stop.
You can have it all, you can have it all,
And I won’t stop.
You can have it all, you can have it all,
And I won’t stop, I won’t, I won’t, yeah.

Get Out
04:22
|
|

|
I want to get out, go wherever you want.
Run to the hills, or your favorite restaurant.
I want to find love, build something that lasts.
Forget all my lust, got to make a thing of the past, a thing of the past, a thing of the past.
I want to break free, of everything that holds me down.
Free from routine, so I can go whenever I want, wherever I want, don't it sound fun?
I want to get out, go where you like.
I want to feel through, got to be the end of the night, the end of the night, the end of the night.
It's a complicated situation,
And I know you hate it,
And I know.

Drugs Ain't Workin'
03:13

The drugs ain’t workin’, they ain’t workin’ no more.
They tried to contain me, but they only pushing me down.
The drugs ain’t workin’, no they ain’t workin’ no more.
They tried to contain me, but they only pushing me down.
I don’t live how you live, so I don’t know what you know to fit your mold.
So I found a way to be, to live with my anxiety, nothing more.
The drugs ain’t workin’, no they ain’t workin’ no more.
They tried to contain me, but they only pushing me down.
The drugs started working (started working), oh I deserve this.
The drugs started working (started working), it’s all so perfect.
The drugs started work… They ain’t workin’ no more.

Where do we go in Ohio? I said I love you, what do I know?
The world is ugly, I am lonely, take a picture, get to know me.
Got no money, in Ohio.
You were my fixture, so I took a picture.
We can go anywhere, I don’t care.
Where do we go in Ohio? I said I love you, what do I know?
I feel so jaded, so isolated, but when I’m with you, it’s so complicated.
Left me waiting, in Ohio.
You were my fixture, so I took a picture.
We can go anywhere, I don’t care.
No I don’t care, I don’t care, no I don’t care, I don’t care, no I don’t care, I don’t care, no I don’t care.
I don’t care, I don’t care, no I don’t care, I don’t care, no I don’t care, I don’t care, no I don’t care, I don’t care, no I don’t care.
I don’t care, I whisper discreet, I don’t care, I think that I need you, I don’t care, no I don’t care, no I don’t.
I don’t care, she says that I’m sweet, I don’t care, I almost believe her, I don’t care.

City of Soul
05:06

A bite of a lip and a slip of a tongue, exposed to much at much too young.
So there you were in the dead of the night, I got lost in your love, the firefight went on.
So there you stood with a gun in your hand, ready for war and you made your final stand.
And I’ll take you, wherever I may go.
Take you, wherever I may roam.
Take you, wherever I may go.
Right back to the city of soul.
King of the coast, the queen of the west, pray to the lord that you might see some rest.
Your final beats were the loudest I heard, flooded the streets, out came the holy word.
And I’ll take you, wherever I may go.
Take you, wherever I may roam.
Take you, wherever I may go.
Right back to the city of soul.
Yeah, I’ll take you, wherever I may go.
Take you, wherever I may roam.
Take you, wherever I may go.
Right back to the city of soul.
Take you, right back to the city of soul.

Lady Morphine

Cut it close but this aint no disaster
It's all tied up with what comes after
I don't think you understand
Sometimes I'm locked in a loop
Lookin all the time just for somethin to do
I get stuck in my own mind
If I could find a way
You don't gotta love me every day I'd die
Lady Morphine, Lady Morphine, Lady Morphine
I just cannot do anything at all
Just not what comes natural
She's a problem solver
Oh with her
Velvet revolver
I once had a lovely crystal ball
What I saw was unusual
Can't get past it
Still a fool for her black magic, it's cool
Lips move slow but my heart beats faster
This aint love it's just good practice
I don't want to be your man
Still I feel afraid
That by now it might be too late
To try
Lady Morphine, Lady Morphine, Lady Morphine
I just cannot do anything at all
Just not what comes natural
She's a problem solver
Oh with her
Velvet revolver
I once had a lovely crystal ball
What I saw was unusual
Can't get past it
Still a fool for her black magic, it's cool
If only I could know my name
I would paint it in your heart
But there's something in the way
And I lose it everyday
Baby if it's all the same
It's just fine to fade away
Cus we're here then we're gone
Down the road on and on
I just cannot do anything at all
Just not what comes natural
She's a problem solver
Oh with her
Velvet revolver
I once had a lovely crystal ball
What I saw was unusual
Can't get past it
Still a fool for her black magic, it's cool

Apple Tree

There’s a garden where my lover sleeps
She lays beneath the apple tree
And knows the fruit is just in her reach
There, the skies are painted gold
The Northern Lights, a thousand fold
And you can meet with God once a week
Woah, oh, oh
You made me feel like the one
You made me feel like the one
Woah, oh, oh
You only do what you want
You always do what you want
My neighbor, he don’t think like me
He blew his self to smithereens
Vultures circle high for the feast
Son, don’t ever think like that
It must betray a natural fact
That you can hold on to hope at least
Woah, oh, oh
You can lose what you are
Don’t that scare you at all?
Woah, oh, oh
Best get moving, before too long
Better prepare for the fall
Born again, a different moon
I paint it my own shade of blue
Saved the other colors just for you
The breeze it plays a symphony
Just showing for you and me
and I am overcome with jealousy
Woah, oh, oh
We can groove all night long
We can dance the morning sun
Woah, oh, oh
Gotta prove it to yourself
That it’s more than having fun

True Love Never Waits

Say what you want to say.
And take all there is to take now honey.
I’m not running, I’m not running, I’m not running away.
Oh, baby I’m confused.
Just, just want to be with you now honey.
Please say something, are you running, when you coming home?
It’s not fair to say goodbye, so many times, so many times.
I don’t think that you tried to make this right, to make this right.
Oh, at the golden gate, true, true love never waits now honey.
I’m not running, say sweet nothings, you look lovely today.

The Milestones
The Milestones were birthed by longtime friends Alex Wandres and CJ Metz in a dingy Baltimore warehouse, where guitars would roar well into the night. As they emerged from that seedy void of a practice space, often as the sun was getting ready to rise, some kind of rugged, raucous, and righteous rock n roll came out with them. ... more
