High and Low 04:26
lyrics
He likes to borrow time from people takin' care of him round the clock I waited for a change We would ride way up the coast and go up and down again that's how we were so high and so low I still smell his smoke in my hair, sometimes I think it'll always be there he left his mark, that's for sure He tells me that he knows me, but he doesn't know himself I know he's never gonna wanna even change ooh ooh, stop pushing me away ooh ooh, the light has changed we would ride way up the coast and go up and down again we would ride way up the coast and go up and down again He likes to borrow money from people takin' care of him and make promises to work real hard then he runs right under a bus, his body and all his goddamn stuff that's when he'll want to talk to me ooh ooh, stop pushing me away ooh ooh, the light has changed we would ride way up the coast and go up and down again we would ride way up the coast and go up and down again Him I can't say no to, so I have to turn away he told me I'm a fighter but I'm fighting myself today we would ride way up the coast and go up and down again that's how we were so high and so low that's how we were so high and so low that's how we were so high and so low Written by Elena Rossman Vocals: Elena Rossman and Olivia Radovich Guitar: Elena Rossman Drums & Bass: Cian Riordan Organ: Gianni Staiano

Your Bike Parts 04:17
lyrics
We used to dream of living but living now is all we have for sure Did you see me, did you see me there, Or are you blind to kindness and despair? I was feeling, I was feeling you but you were numb to what you put me through You like your bike parts more than me here I am, but dammit you don't see You touch your bike parts more than mine do I just lay here naked every time? While you were down there all stressed out I was up here chopping my own wood You think you have me figured out but you're too scared of living like you should DId you see me, did you see me there, or are you blind to kindness and despair? I was feeling, I was feeling you but you were numb to what you put me through You like your bike parts more than me here I am, but dammit you don't see You touch your bike parts more than mine do I just lay here naked every time? You like your bike parts more than me here I am, but dammit you don't see You touch your bike parts more than mine do I just lay here naked every time? You like your bike parts more than me here I am, but dammit you don't see You touch your bike parts more than mine do I just lay here naked every time? We used to dream of living but living now is all we have for sure Written by Olivia Radovich Vocals: Olivia Radovich Guitar: Elena Rossman Background vocals: Elena Rossman Drums & Bass: Cian Riordan Rhodes: Gianni Staiano

Stoned 04:14
lyrics
Tie back my hair from my tired eyes I was always yours for the taking In the driveway behind the garden, I hid before I drove off and left you standing stoned stoned stoned stoned I am not proud I am not proud I am not proud of this I am not proud You have a whole house, a whole life of mine I was always the one waiting for you to come home You have a vice, a shiny look in your eyes I was always taking you like you would take your medicine I am not proud I am not proud I am not proud of this I am not proud I am not proud I am not proud of this I am not proud We said goodbye in your driveway late at night I was always yours for the taking, even then How can I love a man who trembles in his own skin, stoned stoned stoned stoned stoned (I am not proud) stoned (I am not proud) stoned (I am not proud of this) stoned stoned stoned stoned stoned I am not proud I am not proud I am not proud of this I am not proud I am not proud I am not proud of this I am not proud Written by Elena Rossman Vocals: Elena Rossman and Olivia Radovich Guitar: Elena Rossman Lap Steel: Taylor Brown

Morning in Harlem 05:15
lyrics
Early morning and I'm in Harlem hoping for some kind of relief in this city there's so much heat but I'm cold and I'm alone I've never known myself this way before Maybe I'll forgive or forget when I'm walking alone in Brooklyn no one here knows my past I keep looking for signs of places you've been So I'll stick my hands in my pockets and walk forward in New York, you gotta keep looking up I'll feel salt on my skin and pretend I didn't leave anything behind in California in California Counting memories of his skin pressed up against me I believe I can move things but he wouldn't change, he wouldn't change for me So I'll stick my hands in my pockets and walk forward in New York, you gotta keep looking up I'll feel salt on my skin and pretend I didn't leave anything behind in California in California So I'll stick my hands in my pockets and walk forward in New York, you gotta keep looking up I'll feel salt on my skin and pretend I didn't leave anything behind in California in California I believe I can move things but he wouldn't change, he wouldn't change for me I believe I can move things I believe I can move things I believe I can move things I believe I can move things Written by Elena Rossman Vocals: Elena Rossman and Olivia Radovich Guitar: Elena Rossman Drums & Bass: Cian Riordan Piano: Gianni Staiano

Hot Air 03:35
lyrics
It's easier to do it this way I block out noise and run around free and time keeps moving I could stretch my arms to span my life at large and hot air would still spill from my mouth I'm like a ghost trying to be seen I can't compete with you for how much air we're losing It's easier to do it this way I move like I don't need nobody I dance like I don't need nobody and hot air still spills from my mouth I'm like a ghost trying to be seen I can't compete with you for how much air we're losing It's easier to do it this way I kiss like I don't need nobody I dance like I don't need nobody I pretend that I don't need nobody, I I I I......
