Creatures of Comfort

Over and under, all the time that I want
Looking for cover everything that I got
I’m missing a feeling, searching for thunder and fire
Keep your heart beating, don’t want to think of any other
Creatures of comfort, unknown
Chasing a shadow of doubt
I didn’t think we ran wrong
tell me when the money’s run out
I will call, keep your eyes open, always something on my mind
I will call, keep your eyes open, always running to our creatures of comfort
I will call in the middle of the night
Nobody feels like I do
Check and see that your ringer’s on
Keep your eyes on screen glow
When it’s raining, engine turns over coming on over
Sun rising, violet horizon, days are getting warmer
I will call, keep your ears open, always something on my mind
I will call, keep your ears open, always running to our creatures of comfort
I know that you’re hurting, we are sickle and drought
Keep your eyes open, we ain’t giving up now
No, I’m not messing around, why you telling lies
Feel likes my head’s in the clouds, I’m already feeling alright
Though I don’t understand why, you talk to me at all
Feel like I’m already fine, I’m alright
Creatures of comfort, unknown
Chasing a shadow of doubt
I didn’t think we ran wrong
tell me when the money’s run out
I will call, keep your ears open, always something on my mind
I will call, keep your ears open, always running to our creatures of comfort

Most Of Us

Most of us only care about making money
Some of us try to keep it all line
We’ve got our jobs, we’ve got our wives, we’ve got our cars, and we’ve got our houses too
Please don’t let it go
Please don’t let it go
Most of us are running around and we are counting time
Some of us are running around and we got time on are side
You better believe it, I don’t mind
That I’m wasting my time
Some of us only care about the lives that we’re living
Fighting with each other and making things harder
Let’s play truth or dare, let’s play with fire
Run the world around and burn it down to the wire
Most of us are running around and we are counting time
Some of us are running around and we got time on are side
You better believe it, I don’t mind
That I’m wasting my time
Most of us, only care about it
Please don’t let it, let it go
Let it go
Most of us are running around and we are counting time
Some of us are running around and we got time on are side
You better believe it, I don’t mind
That I’m wasting my time
Most of us counting time
Most of us got time on our side
You better believe it, I don’t mind
That I’m wasting time

Fake News

We are circling all around this star
With nothing but influence and outside info and scars
We are riding in the back of beat down car
The humming of pavement and the wheels to carry us far
In the end all we are, is a mess, of emotion on fire
Trying to behave, trying break through our chains
and devote enough time to be happy
trying to be better and keep it together but it’s hard
When the news is spewing their views and the radicals breaking your heart
Feeling pretty angry, feeling alright, feeling like having a drink and then starting a fight
Bust out through the window, rolling on the streets, kicking and screaming and beating and clawing
Pretty neat
Call It all Human learning experience, temporarily diverging from higher learning, and backwards evolving, slowly revolving, into the sea
you know what I mean
and it’s hard to be okay with this scene

Over Our Heads
04:14

Holding my breath for something that may not come,
could be a million to one
Well it hit me on my head on the head like a rabbit running from a gun,
This waiting is getting old
And I’m not feeling in control should I be worried
If the dog doesn’t sink its teeth into me as I run
I don’t want to stop, if you give me some love, give it a chance
Could you be the one to make me give it up, I think I’m falling fast
We’re in over our heads
It’s that feeling you get when your holding someone you love
Could be a million to one
If you don’t understand than you never get enough
Explaining is getting old
And I’m not feeling in control, should I be worried
If the dog doesn’t sink its teeth me as I run, run
I don’t want to stop, if you give me some love, give it a chance
Could you be the one to make me give it up, I think I’m falling fast
We’re in over our heads

Animal

Understanding all these days, makes you feel like dirt
Hard to hold it lost your way, never a clean shirt
Hold on to whatever, thinking of these fever dreams
Stop and think more than ever, trying not to scream
What do you run from, what makes you hide? What makes you feel like an Animal?
Where do you go in lieu of facing your fears, what do you do when an animal gets you?
Pushing forward make mistakes, everyone gets hurt
Minor problems major breaks, keep your ears alert
Hold on to whatever, thinking of these paper leaves
Stop and think pull the lever, break into the armory
What do you run from, what makes you hide? What makes you feel like an Animal?
Where do you go in lieu of facing your fears, what do you do when an animal gets you?
Understanding, hard to hold to it, pushing forward, lost your way
Understanding all these days, Pushing forward make mistakes
You emerge from the darkness with nothing to lose and step into the fire when an animal gets you
What do you run from, what makes you hide? What makes you feel like an Animal?
Where do you go in lieu of facing your fears, what do you do when an animal gets you?
You emerge from the darkness with nothing to lose
Emerge from the darkness with nothing to lose
Turn your back on the fire or it consumes you
Turn you back on the darkness or an animal gets you

Desire

It feels thicker than water
And it’s hard to get a hold of it
I’m clouds on the coast, I’m your later father’s ghost
I am lightning I am thunder, I’m your unborn daughter
I am desire, I’m the thing that makes you feel like you can’t get any higher
I am what I am, desire
It was 1988 when I cut myself from the wire
I begin to hallucinate, I set myself on fire
I believe in complete disaster
I thought that it could burn down
I don’t claim to know the answer
I’m the first to pull the trigger now
Desire
How did it get to be this bad?
With a keyboard and the internet
Firing off ballistics into the abyss with a hundred and forty characters
Will I finally get to know where he stands tonight?
Will I finally be able to paint him in an honest light
It was 1988 when I cut myself from the wire
I begin to hallucinate, I set myself on fire
I believe in complete disaster
I thought that it could burn down
I don’t claim to know the answer
I’m the first to pull the trigger now
Desire
I believe in complete disaster
I thought that it could burn down
I don’t claim to know the answer
I’m the first to pull the trigger now
Desire
Desire
I believe in complete disaster
I believe in complete disaster

Alive

It’s so funny what you think is a rule
You get caught up in trying to be cool
Only half the things you do make sense
But everything’s a mean to an end
Walking in a straight line, everything in black and white
Think I drank too much, oh tell me do I seem alright
Throw my hands into my pockets in an effort to stop this
But it won’t turn down this pike
We’re too high but tonight won’t last forever
I think that it’ll be alright
Every day we get is just a new beginning
We’re lucky just to be alive
Think I got a fever, ninety proof that I am wrong
[you’re still alive but you’re not on your own]
Waiting for the come down, ready for the new dawn
[you’re still alive but you’re not on your own]
For now, I’m a boy about town, forty’s in hands and I’m down
We’re too high but tonight won’t last forever
I think that it’ll be alright
Every day we get is just a new beginning
We’re lucky just to be alive
Lucky just to be alive
Lucky just to feel alive
Every day we get is just a new beginning, doing our best to try
Every chance we get we’re scratching at the surface
We’re burning just to be
Burning just to be
Just to be
We’re too high but tonight won’t last forever
I know in the morning we can piece it back together
Every day we get is just a new beginning
I know in the morning we can get back to thinking
We’re too high but tonight won’t last forever
I know in the morning we can piece it back together
In this moment there’s no time
Because I’m lucky just to feel alive

Jealousy
04:42

I don’t think that I get jealous, but I know that I show it
When I see you with him, I can barely believe it
And it feels like I’m dying, but it beats the hell out of living
It’s not for a lack of trying, doing the best with what I’m given
I don’t think that I’m that bad
But jealousy’s my harmony and I’m living alone with it
I don’t think that I get jealous
I feel like I’m own
Feel like I’m all alone
Think I’ve got a fever for freaks, I might have known
I been holding back for weeks, but got to know
Do you think that I, am stepping out of line
When I am looking at my phone with you always on my mind
I feel like that’s alright, but who am I to decide
When I’ve already lost my mind
I don’t think that I get jealous, but I know that I show it
When I see you with him, I can barely believe it
And it feels like I’m dying, but it beats the hell out of living
It’s not for a lack of trying, doing the best with what I’m given
I don’t think that I’m that bad
But jealousy’s my harmony and I’m living alone with it
I don’t think that I get jealous
I don’t want to feel
I don’t want to feel like I’m missing out
There is so much that I try
There is so much that I try to do but I fail
I don’t think that I’m that bad
But jealousy’s my harmony and I’m living alone with it
I don’t think that I get jealous, but I know that I show it
When I see you with him, I can barely believe it
And it feels like I’m dying, but it beats the hell out of living
It’s not for a lack of trying, doing the best with what I’m given
I don’t think that I’m that bad
But jealousy’s my harmony and I’m living alone with it

Holiday Friends Astoria, Oregon
Hailing from Astoria, Oregon Holiday Friends’ brand of pop is joyful and bright, marked by up-tempo hooks and shining
melodies, by the dark growl of bass and tom, and by bright trills of synth and guitar rolling over tongue-in-cheek lyrics.
Learning gradually how to exist in an increasingly cynical landscape, they are sustained by play and the quick, precious joy that’s found between the notes
