about

This was the last song we recorded with Ed Ackerson before he died. He was sort of the biggest champion of our little art project. It only felt right tout it out on Christmas Eve. Uncertain what we're going to do moving forward, but we still have songs to record and stories to tell. We hope you enjoy our ode to Fathers and Daughters, regardless of whether or not you are living in a post apocalyptic zombie filled nightmare factory or not.

lyrics

Thrown into this tapestry
Bad ideas gone worse and getting old
Nursing constant battle wounds

But I won't give up my daughter
You can drag me to the slaughter
Every outcome ends the same
You won't get away with this

Carving out what's left of me
Take the rest and keep up if you can
If nothing matters anyway...

Then I won't give up my daughter
You can drown me under water
Every outcome ends the same
You won't get away with this

No I won't give up my daughter
You can drag me to the slaughter
Every outcome ends the same
You won't get away with this
She's the last and only daughter
In a country with no fathers
Every outcome ends the same
She's drifting away from me

Drifting through my life
I don't feel anything
Get out while you can
If you know what's good for you

Had a nameless new desire to carry on
While I cut my teeth on tigers on the run

If they track you down
Let 'em know what time it is
Take all that you can
You don't owe them anything

Had to train my body not to let it show
'Cause the damage proved impossible to slow
Now I'm wasting air on fictions of the past
Walking through the strangest dream I've ever had
So you'd better run before it all comes crashing down
