Run wild and experience what this world has in store for you Tied up with all of this nonsense what else are you going to do Following the leader saying exactly what you ought to do What is all of this following really gonna prove to you And I think this tide is changing fast Don’t wait for your life to pass And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re mislead Run wild and experience what this world has in store for you While you can still do just that without the hand coming down on you Following the leader saying exactly what you ought to do What is all of this following really gonna prove to you, to you And I think this tide is changing fast Don’t wait for your life to pass And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re mislead And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re mislead And I think this tide is changing fast Don’t wait for your life to pass And still it stands Both sides of the coin points to head Understated to say you’re mislead Keep on following that leader They wouldn’t tell you no lies

Although everybody’s telling you Never stare at the sun Still there is this little part of you Wants to just for fun Oh, I am a loaded gun Oh, I’m a loaded gun I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun Baby I’m a loaded gun No I’m not surprised by what you do You’re always the one When a problem catches up with you You’d always run Oh, I am a loaded gun Oh, I’m a loaded gun I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun Baby I’m a loaded gun Although everybody’s telling you Never stare at the sun Still there is this little part of you Wants to just for fun Oh, I am a loaded gun Oh, I’m a loaded gun I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun (A loaded gun) I’m a loaded gun Baby I’m a loaded gun You weren’t in the right But were you in the wrong? Maybe we just never got along You’re always loaded You’re like a loaded gun You’re always loaded One trigger pull from fun You’re always loaded You’re like a loaded gun You’re always loaded One trigger pull from fun

Stay here with me Surrounded by trees of silver Moonlight shimmering As the midnight fog takes over our view Takes over our view And all I see is you All I see is you Is any of this true Stay here with me Surrounded by trees of silver Quietly breathing in and out As the midnight fog takes over our view Takes over our view And all I see you All I see you Is any of this true Yeah I wanted you to stay Yeah I wanted you to stay Oh yeah Yeah I wanted you to stay Oh yeah I really want you to stay I really want you to stay

As the Earth keeps turning I can hear them say As the Earth keeps burning I’ll keep them away How I long to be Anywhere but here As the Earth keeps turning I want to disappear As the Earth keeps turning I can hear them say As the Earth keeps burning I really want you to stay And why do we have to be suffering At least that is all I ever see As the Earth keeps on turning I want to disappear As the Earth keeps turning I’ll keep them away As the Earth keeps burning I really want you to stay I really want you to stay I really want you to stay I really want you to stay I really want you to stay I really want you to stay

about

What started as an optimistic outlook for this new decade, on what was lined up to be the most ambitious year yet for the outfit, inevitably succumbed to the unpredictable nature of the future. Since the end of 2018 and beginning of 2019, I was obsessively writing music and compiling the concepts for albums together. A clear picture was made of what I wanted to achieve in the year 2020, and mark it as a pivotal milestone in both work ethic and creativity. Tour plans were in an infantile stage, but on the horizon. And a goal of a biannual album release left me excited for what new sonic territories I was heading to explore.

Unfortunately, my dreams did not coincide with the slowly unraveling torment and disaster of the new year. Life had been put on pause, as we were all forced into the unpleasant mystery of obtaining any fragment of hope. This of course lead to some real self reflection and inherent desire for reinvention. With this collection of songs, I wanted to rework some favorites of mine and let my creative mind wander. Three of these four tracks are extended jams of familiar songs, with two of them being from ‘Lonely Sand Dune’ (2018) and one off of ‘Klipsan Hideaway’ (2019). Closing with a new song I had written spontaneously by just hitting record and ad libing whatever it was that came to mind.
