Name: Untitled II (Untitled III Part IV)
Duration: P00H04M46S
Description: There was supposed to be a key change to some happy major riff, but I didn't write anything else except one lick over and over. It had no real ending, and I hate cheesy fade-outs. Plus I never had the desire to go back and add it in. I like the last line as the last line of this EP. It fits, I suppose.

There was supposed to be a key change to some happy major riff, but I didn't write anything else except one lick over and over. It had no real ending, and I hate cheesy fade-outs. Plus I never had the desire to go back and add it in. I like the last line as the last line of this EP. It fits, I suppose.

lyrics

And the stars are forming around me. And I can't even get my sleep. And the lies are forming around you. And you can't even whisper the truth. And this song was written for you. Your things and my things are askew. And this sounds like the sounds of breaking. Not quite the sounds I wish we were making. Two years gone and this still haunts me. I'm afraid of your face. And to me this song isn't absolute closure, it's a picture with too much exposure. And the words you used on me were tight. And I know each one of them was right. And the status flickered so hard it was shaking the picture. I took a step back to observe this world, but all I could see was this damn girl. And you were imprinted on everything. Someone began to scream. I moved on but you still lurked around. To my knowledge you moved out of this town. I'll keep in my head what I know is true, this is the sound of me getting over you.
