lyrics
at every turn the machine's collecting
process and redirecting
our thoughts towards what's distracting
hiding what's really happening
we perform like a herd still
though estranged from our neighbors
we trudge our vacant distance
thoughts strung up in fishnets
out of breath and gasping
broken from the struggling
entering the dark phase
and depression is searching
for release that needs no precaution
this empty food is so accessible
the quick fix the cancerous vehicle
spent all your money on accident
with pin pads and plastic transactions
and the doctor seats you in a booth
puts a stop watch in plain view
says you're the healthiest he's seen all day
the whole time he looked away
he said there's no cure just precaution
so all of a sudden you're an arson
head full of nothing
body shatter in the rain
lungs snatch for oxygen
waste minimum wage on a lunch break
obsessed with communication
attention span lies terminal in the hospice losing patience
these are the ruins of precaution
sleeping like a brown mouse in a barn
dreaming of the owl and his arms
process and redirecting
our thoughts towards what's distracting
hiding what's really happening
we perform like a herd still
though estranged from our neighbors
we trudge our vacant distance
thoughts strung up in fishnets
out of breath and gasping
broken from the struggling
entering the dark phase
and depression is searching
for release that needs no precaution
this empty food is so accessible
the quick fix the cancerous vehicle
spent all your money on accident
with pin pads and plastic transactions
and the doctor seats you in a booth
puts a stop watch in plain view
says you're the healthiest he's seen all day
the whole time he looked away
he said there's no cure just precaution
so all of a sudden you're an arson
head full of nothing
body shatter in the rain
lungs snatch for oxygen
waste minimum wage on a lunch break
obsessed with communication
attention span lies terminal in the hospice losing patience
these are the ruins of precaution
sleeping like a brown mouse in a barn
dreaming of the owl and his arms

Based on the cover, I was expecting a different sound when I pressed play. But what came out was even better than what I thought was going to. What a great little EP.
