Dig out the problem at the root This red infection is the proof All of the harm its' done to you kill off this long infected tooooooth In my darkest hour Maybe i will sell some weed To keep myself afloat And buy all of the things i need A working kitchen sink and fridge To match the old decor Every mindless hour just adds to My sadness more Carve out the problem at the root No one will even know its' you Carve out this long infected tooth Carve out the problem at the roooooot There's a hole left in my head It's bleeding Can't smoke or drink at all Now I'm fiending In my darkest hour Maybe i will sell some weed To keep myself afloat And buy all of the things i need A working kitchen sink and fridge To match the old decor Every mindless hour just adds to My sadness more Carve out the problem at the root No one would even know it's you

Are we alone? are you feeling right can you hold on a bit more softly? Are we alone in the universe? I hope they hear me singing awfully! I hear you sayin, "What are you doing with your life?" I'm stuck complaining of how other people live their I am done trying to explain! You can take a picture or a detailed look inside of my brain I am done trying to conform don't take any pictures, I don't see the use or what they're for Are we alone in the universe? I hope they hear me singin' off key are we alone, are you feelin right? Can you hold on a bit more softly? I hear you sayin, "What are you doing with your life?" I'm stuck complaining of how other people live their am done trying to explain! You can take a picture or a detailed look inside of my brain I am done trying to perform for a bunch of backwood hicks who don't know what they're listening for Fucked up running off a high I got everything I wanted last night

Loudest man in the bar Shoutin' bout the football scores Overpowerin' roars outside Fucked up, runnin off a high I told myself I wasn't goin' out tonight The fear of missing out sure bites And now, everyone is here And i can't shake the feelin' that i'm gonna be dead soon And now, every word i hear Makes me wanna tell the people i love "I'm gonna head out soon!" he says "Oh I can't believe after this I gotta leave!" Though he tries to put up a fight, he gotta get home to the wife LOUDEST MAN IN THE BAR STOP SHOUTIN' BOUT THE FOOTBALL SCORES YOU'RE OVERPOWERIN' ROARS OUTSIDE [awkward silence]

about

Throughout the last 3 years I have been the busiest and most fulfilled i've ever been. while also being the most sad and shut in i've ever become.

Travelling, playing music with friends, collaborating and doing compilations. These are the things that got me through this year and I thank every single person who listens to these songs. I got to play many of these live months before their recording. 3 failed attempts to record these songs as well. I just couldn't get it right until now.

Thank you John for your amazing work on My Darkest Hour and for being the best guitarist ever. Without you these songs would be so bad.

Thank you Addison, Steve, Alaina, Dalton and Gabe.
Perren, Broadleaf in Kentwood and everyone in Grand Rapids for the great hangouts, Dove for your couch and booking me!!! Seb, Jackson and Nathan of The George in Florida, William, Dom. for the best friendships ever, you keep me in check.

Thanks to Jacob Fowler and Beautiful Rat Records for everything!
Thanks to Ska Punk International!
