I might shoot myself just to say I killed a man and I might say I'd do so many things that I'll never ever ever plan and I'll never carry through since we just say the words because they're there, so even when we're serious it's difficult to care so we'll grow our hair over our eyes like some kind of protein wall bitch about shit like and mom and dad and our new classes in the fall and we will be so grateful for the dinners that we waste and we will be so spiteful of those who house our heads and we will be so purepred spit on those who aren't and we will pray each night give me more, give me more i is we we are i the books are burned the eyes are dry from staring at our screens and arguing with walls a nation of fatherless baby boys and girls who've worn out their mothers sucked out the will from the wells of trying the welcome is gone and we will be so fine with this stagnancy we've caused we will be so dead in the eyes with all of our drugs we will be so awful shit on everyone even ourselves and we will bitch each night give me more

I know a place up in the air It's not very far, I've been there before I know a place, cool and warm cooling my blood, warming my heart So come on down and walk with me, and tell me I'm your man I only want to know a couple of things about you Where were you when I was in so much trouble with myself And do you still believe in me like I believe I've been thinking good good things about you cool and warm, good good things about you If you've been thinking good good things about me So cool and warm when you put your arms around me All on my own, I know where to go Living the lie, in your eyes I know a place, cool and warm Cooling my blood, warming my soul So come on down and walk with me, and tell me I'm your man Let's see if I can get it right with you this time around I'm not afraid of losing you my little girl But do you still believe in me like I believe

i'm made of piss and vinegar cause i piss myself when times get tough and the bitterness compliments the shit that falls from my mouth preaching from a stage on a foundation of discarded pages filled with words I don't believe please don't leave the only truth i know and rattled in my bones, is my love for you I thought you knew, I still think you do, at least that's what I hope was it just not enough? or was it far too much? why do you insist on my leaving you alone? these things... I guess I'll never know, I'll never know

You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last. But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast. Yonder stands your orphan with his gun, Crying like a fire in the sun. Look out the saints are comin' through And it's all over now, Baby Blue. The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense. Take what you have gathered from coincidence. The empty-handed painter from your streets Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets. This sky, too, is folding under you And it's all over now, Baby Blue. All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home. All your reindeer armies, are all going home. The lover who just walked out your door Has taken all his blankets from the floor. The carpet, too, is moving under you And it's all over now, Baby Blue. Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you. Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you. The vagabond who's rapping at your door Is standing in the clothes that you once wore. Strike another match, go start anew And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

about

We just had some songs sitting in our respective musical cupboards and we figured a nice tidy little split EP would be a better place to display them in.
Enjoy.



dedicated to lonely banana splits everywhere
there's plenty of scoops in the freezer
someday you will find your sundae

"Radio Wire Empire. Sort of like Passion Pit meets a band that can write more than one good song." - EatThisCity.com

"What do you get when folk music gets drunk, and inadvertently confuses Shoegazey Ambient Electronica for it's normal fuck buddy, rock music, booty calls SAE at two in the morning, forgets to wear a condom, and gets SAE pregnant?
You get Radio Wire Empire." - Tramps Upstairs
