Nicholas Ess Good Stuff All around with multiple layers and elements in every track. Good guitar riffs, awesome vocals, soulful bass. Hits hard and fast where it should. Some laggy bridges, but still rad overall! Make more! Cuz this is worth way more than the crap I buy on iTunes. Favorite track: Collateral Damage.

New Season 03:16
it's the new season! time for me to stumble into line is this spring, summer, fall? i just can not tell anymore when the billboard is blinding me with a new face every week, attention span slims down every day when the water hits, we crumble looking so thin in our new paper clothes if I can only see the world from my eyes, then why am i trying so hard to see it from yours? it's the new season! where will the spotlight hit next? no one's noticing the green flesh falling from their bones anticipation swells, drool drips down our chins there's moans and groans and i'm starving when the water hits, we crumble looking so thin in our new paper clothes if I can only see the world from my eyes, then why am i trying so hard to see it from yours? i'm the next trend NO HE IS/no i am/I'M IN?/no you're in! i'm the next trend NO SHE IS/no i am/I'M IN?/no you're in! i'm the next trend NO HE IS/no i am/I'M IN?/no you're in! i'm the next trend your hair is so last season and so is that ugly shirt it's safe to swallow, it's made edible, you won't feel a thing anymore you're so spring, you're so fall you're so late you're nothing at all you're so spring, you're so fall you're nothing at all! when the water hits, we crumble looking so thin in our new paper clothes if I can only see the world from my eyes, then why am i trying so hard to see it from yours? it's the new season!

we were born and raised your collateral children, and you said, "it's time to grow and mend this sinking world. time's are hard we take what we are given," and we say, "all that's given is this water to drown in" life goes on, life goes on we are bound and chained by your decisions that narrow every possibility you could ever dream now you must be the one who reckons your mistakes hear our cry and know this fight only begins life goes on life, it just goes on and on oh, little children don't you know? life goes on life goes on life, it just goes on and on oh, little children don't you know? life goes on well, you tell us what to do and where to go but every path has the same set of thorns in our own way, we learn to grow and we calm, calm down and carry on we carry on!

every time i fall asleep and close my eyes i dream that the whole world will die when happiness becomes a crime, this is the start of the greatest decline turn up the sound to max volume and dance around to our impending doom so, kiss your loved ones good night and bye run through the streets, and scream "the end" tear up the scripts you wrote to guide your life tear down the walls you built that lie when all final moments last lifetimes no confined feelings are left behind turn up the sound to max volume and dance around to our impending doom so, kiss your loved ones good night and bye run through the streets, scream "the end is nigh" it doesn't matter what we do or what we say we are meant to die anyway it doesn't matter where we go or where we stay as long as it is far away so level the throttle down as hard as you can we do not need a map or a plan these streets are your territory, so vandalize them as your own howl to the night sky "we are not alone" it doesn't matter what we do or what we say we are meant to die anyway so level the throttle down as hard as you can as long as we're far away

High Noon 04:53
i don't know how i'll look at you tomorrow you're so sublime my words are meant to tie you up they do their best, but they're never enough your voice sends me into a panic like the town bell, that signals high noon my fingers are numb, they're slipping off the trigger but i can hold my bat out and pray for a sting oh, how will i look at you tomorrow? you're so divine i'm so sick of these bullshit butterflies they've been flying all my life, do they ever get tired? i know that i do i know it's not worth getting upset it's so easy to stack up regret it's always been hard to find words automatic but these lips shoot one by one i don't know how i'll look at you tomorrow you're so sublime my words are meant to tie you up they do their best
