It's a shorter list then I'd care to admit:
the people who are proud of me who don't have to be.
Indifference might be all that's left.
Blood that should be in my forehead's on your kitchen floor instead.
Shred the documents and my fingerprints.
Write my final words in the sheet music,
and have the boys in the bandstand
give me a four-four stomp so my feet can feel
now that the eggshell scars have all but healed.
But you don't understand,
What goes on behind my back I'll never know,
but it won't help me pick up the phone
when there's a call on hold from everyone I've ever known,
waiting for the chance to say we told you so.
I'm so fucking sick of skeletons,
my closet's full of circulatory systems.
and they're covered in ants instead of covered in secrets,
I can breathe through the failures I can't live with the regrets,
Shred the documents and my fingerprints.
Line the fireplace with the manuscripts,
and have the boys in the bandstand
give me a four-four stomp so my feet can feel
now that the eggshell scars have all but healed.
Leave me someplace that I've never been,
I'll tear my passport up and start again

We've been known to have jacuzzi parties a few hours before shows with these jerks which lead to throwing up in taco bell parking lots a lot right before we play. Our favorite people. This EP is rad. Moonraker
This album is amazing. If you're a fan of early Dashboard Confessional or Matchbox 20 before they sold out, definitely check this out. Also If you like Bojack Horseman you might understand this album Moonraker
The Scandals are one of those bands that when they blow up, all of us who have known them will just say "Well yeah, duh. Of course." Rad punk rock with catchy "why-didnt-I-write-that" choruses to sing Moonraker
supported by 5 fans who also own “Back from the Dead Assholes!”
These guys are awesome! I thought nothing could top "Fail Better" but this might just have done it.
Just buy this and everything else they've done. 🙂 davepunker
Pitch-perfect math rock from Kaneohe, Hawaii charges forward on raw, ragged emotion. A treat for fans of Polvo and Pardoner. Bandcamp New & Notable Jul 27, 2018
