Jeff Bridges 03:24
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

Fail/Safe 03:33
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

To You 03:04
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

about

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.
