about

this was the last song written for this new batch of music, and quickest track to start sounding good upon recording

i love how the band sounds on this one, alex's fills throughout, and we had alot of fun tracking the intro and all of those splattery parts

i wrote the song in about 20 minutes before going to bed one night and then the lyrics at a much later date, reflecting on things which are better illustrated in the accompanying music video, "unlimited opportunities/somewhere in dreamland"

lyrics

fill a role,
let up all
take the beat
and we're all sent back with a sterile heart

but we were laying traps
synchronized new paths
we chipped away our teeth, now we're all red/clean

start up small
embrace the grate
imperfect love
its as close as you come

we were laying traps
syncronizing paths
chipped away our teethnow we're all red/clean

never thought we'd see thistime honored efficiency end
only up in flames
but we’re all too tired to start a thing

funny what you'll accept, as if there is nothing left
we laughed at all costs
