We ask ourselves: “what’s to it?
And why the fuck do we still do it?”
We could be working steady jobs
But instead we drown in hops and malt
This state of grace we live in
Seems it’s more taking than giving
We have been caged
Declawed, desensitized and fucking tamed
Been fed the scraps, refuse, the waste
And all this so we could stay safe
But do we really need this?
The only way to stay awake
The only way to keep our faith
The only way to keep us sane
Are the tiniest mistakes
With all our claims mis-staked

The picture proof was fractured
Paper thin yet miles wide
When you said that you couldn't handle it
And I wouldn't want it either way
Connect the dots in this charade
You'll find that we could have made
A mess like nobody's business
But the ink ran dry
So I'd rather stay inside tonight
So split this town
And take your shots
It's not that I care anymore
Connect the dots in this charade
You'll find that we could have made
A mess like nobody's business
But the ink ran dry
So I'd rather stay inside tonight
Connect the dots
Forget what's lost

I'm gonna say what I mean tonight
Cut myself on glass and wounded pride
I won't start biding time
Misconceptions aside
I'm gonna say what's on my tongue
What bothered me too long
At the back of my throat
Clenched on ground-down teeth
Will you hold on
To what you held so dear and true?
A hasty call, a step misled
Are you too far gone, are you gone for good?
So far gone
It's hard to see you clearly

Rowan Oak
We came together in early 2k12, wanting to play loud, simple, honest songs. Recently we've developed a knack for quiet songs, too. Formerly known as Western Grace.
