OUT ON THE FREEWAY
AWAY FROM THE TRACK
ANOTHER TENTH PLACE
NEVER GONNA BE IN THE BLACK
EVERYONE'S DANCING
GOLD AND CHAMPAGNE
DRANK A FEW TALL BOYS
TO WASH AWAY MY SHAME
CAN'T BUY YOU THINGS
CAN'T BUY YOUR LOVE
LOST ALL MY SPONSORS
DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M DRIVING FOR
SEE THE WAY YOU LOOK AT ME
WITH PITY AND CONFUSION
TRIED TO BE YOUR EVERYTHING
ALWAYS END UP LOSING
THOUGHT SOMEDAY MY TIME WOULD COME
SACRIFICED AND PRAYED
UP AHEAD THE FLAG GOES DOWN WHILE I MELT AWAY
OUT ON THE FREEWAY
AWAY FROM IT ALL
GREEN LIGHTS ARE FADING
GATHERING DARK

THE MORNING COMES
TV STILL ON
WANNA WATCH THE CARTOON STARFISH PREACH
FLOATING AROUND
TRY TO TOUCH BACK DOWN
BUT I'M MOVING FURTHER OUT OF REACH
AND NOW TONIGHT YOU COME TO HEAR
THESE SPLINTERED STORIES OF ALL THE YEARS OF BAD CHOICES
IT'S BECOMING CLEAR
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE THE CROWD OF FACES
THE RINGING IN YOUR EARS
TIME WAS HOLDING OUT
LAYING ON A BUSTED COUCH
SEARCHING FOR A PHRASE TO SEND THE LIGHTS BACK DOWN
WHEN THEY TURN AWAY, WHEN THEY DISENGAGE
ALL ALONE WHEN YOU GET BACK HOME
DRAW THE CURTAINS UP AGAINST THE HEAT
ON YOUR DISCONNECTED PHONE
THERE'S NO DIAL TONE
NO ONE'S CALLING, NO ONE'S COMING NEAR
SHE WAS CRYSTALIZED
SO INDISCREET
WE WERE UP ALL NIGHT
KEYED UP WITHOUT FEAR
ALL BIG IDEAS WITH NOWHERE TO GO
SO MANY PLANS
NO CENTER HOLD
LOOKING BACK ON ALL THAT NOW
WONDER HOW WE GOT OUT
WE WERE JUST THE LUCKY ONES
SCRAPE AND SCRATCH AND HEAL BACK UP
OFF THE FLOOR
COMING BACK FOR MORE
COULD YOU TAKE IT NOW WITH YOUR SHAKING HANDS
COULD YOU TELL ME NOW THAT I CAN UNDERSTAND
IT WAS ALL A GAME I NEVER LEARNED TO PLAY
|

|
YOU WAKE UP WITH A SIGH
AFTER SLEEPING ON YOUR SECRET
SHRINKING BACK TO BACK ALL NIGHT
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING THERE BETWEEN YOU
WHAT MAKES YOU SO HARD FOR ME TO FIND
WHEN YOU'RE RIGHT BY MY SIDE
I LOOK FOR YOU EVERY DAY
ALWAYS SOMETHING IN THE WAY
BEFORE YOU REACH FOR WHAT YOU NEED
BEHIND THE LINE OF FRAGILE OBJECTS
BETTER BE PREPARED TO CATCH THEM
OR RUN WHEN THEY FALL
WHAT MAKES YOU SO HARD FOR ME TO FIND
WHEN YOU'RE RIGHT BY MY SIDE
I LOOK FOR YOU EVERY DAY
ALWAYS SOMETHING IN THE WAY
MEET IN THE DOORWAY, FACE TO FACE
STEP BACK AND SAY NOTHING
YOU ROLL YOUR EYES TO FIND THE WALL
ALWAYS IN THE WAY
WHAT MAKES YOU SO HARD FOR ME TO FIND
WHEN YOU'RE RIGHT BY MY SIDE
I LOOK FOR YOU EVERY DAY
ALWAYS SOMETHING IN THE WAY
WHY ARE YOU SO HARD TO FIND
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING IN THE WAY

CRUMPLED UP INTO A BALL
CAMPING OUT IN A TOILET STALL
DROWNING IN A PUDDLE OF REGRET
CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT I SAID
IF THIS IS HOW IT'S ALWAYS GONNA BE
YOU MIGHT BE BETTER OFF ALONE
SAD OLD CLOWN STUMBLING AROUND
YOU SHOULD'VE STAYED AT HOME
NO MATTER WHAT KIND OF SHAPE I'M IN
SOMEHOW I FALL BACK UP AGAIN
TIL MY SHORT TERM MEMORY FADES
AND I GO CRAWLING AWAY LIKE A BABY
IF THIS IS HOW IT'S GONNA BE
MIGHT BE BETTER OFF ALONE
SAD OLD CLOWN STUMBLING AROUND
SHOULD'VE STAYED AT HOME
YOU SHOULD'VE STAYED AT HOME
YOU SHOULD'VE STAYED AT HOME
IF THIS IS HOW IT'S ALWAYS GONNA BE
YOU MIGHT BE BETTER OFF ALONE
SAD OLD CLOWN STUMBLING AROUND
YOU SHOULD'VE STAYED AT HOME
YOU SHOULD'VE STAYED AT HOME
YOU SHOULD'VE STAYED AT HOME

Shut Down

EVERY TIME YOU CRAWL OUT OF THAT PIT
IS ALL SEEMS TOO EXTREME FOR YOU
YOU SEARCH FOR SIGNS OF LIFE
ONLY TO FIND YOU'RE OUT OF RANGE
ALL THE FRIENDS WHO USED TO CALL
GAVE UP LONG AGO, YOU KNOW
YOU PUSHED THEM ALL AWAY
YOU PUSHED THEM ALL AWAY
WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN
WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN
WHY DON'T YOU EVER LISTEN TO THE RECORDS ON THE SHELF
COLLECTING DUST WITH THE TROPHIES FROM THE GAMES YOU USED TO PLAY
STARING AT THE PHONE AND SCROLLING ENDLESSLY
I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU HOPE TO SEE
WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO SEE
WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN
WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN
DON'T COME TO ME WITH YOUR EXCUSES
YOU'RE GONNA BE DEAD BEFORE YOU DIE
YOU'RE GONNA FALL EMPTY AND USELESS
UNDER THE SKY DEAD BEFORE YOU DIE
EVERYTIME YOU CRAWL OUT OF YOUR PIT
IT ALL SEEMS SO OBSCENE
IN YOUR SEARCH FOR SIGNS OF LIFE YOU FIND
NOW YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN
THE FRIENDS YOU USED TO CALL
WHERE DID THEY GO?
YOU PUSHED THEM ALL AWAY
YOU PUSHED THEM ALL AWAY
WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN
WHEN YOU SHUT DOWN
DON'T COME TO ME WITH YOUR EXCUSES
YOU'RE GONNA BE DEAD BEFORE YOU DIE
YOU'RE GONNA FALL EMPTY AND USELESS
UNDER THE SKY DEAD BEFORE YOU DIE
DEAD BEFORE YOU DIE
DEAD BEFORE YOU DIE

CAN'T WAIT FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO HAPPEN
DON'T WANT TO BE HERE ANYMORE
YOU CARVED YOUR NAME WITH A SCOUT KNIFE
ON THE BENCH AT THE BUS STOP
DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'LL GO
BUT YOUR STILL TOO AFRAID TO TRY
ANYWHERE BUT HERE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
OVER THE VALLEY VIEW
THERE'S NOTHING THERE FOR YOU TO FIND
UP ON THE RIDGE ALONE AT MIDNIGHT
YOU CAN SEE THE CITY LIGHTS
YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'LL GO
AND YOU'RE STILL TOO AFRAID TO TRY
ANYWHERE BUT HERE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
I CAN'T WAIT FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO HAPPEN
I CAN'T WAIT FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO HAPPEN
YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU'LL GO
AND YOU'RE STILL TOO AFRAID TO TRY
ANYWHERE BUT HERE IN THE BLINK OF AN EYE
I CAN'T WAIT FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO HAPPEN
I CAN'T WAIT FOR SOMETHING GOOD TO HAPPEN

HALF A LIFETIME AGO
IN MY FOREVER DREAM
THE FAR AWAY PLACES I USED TO KNOW
STILL EXIST IN THE MORNING LIGHT
IT'S ONLY TIME
AND THERE'S A PLAN
STANDING BY
UNTIL THE END
FOUR THOUSAND FEET BELOW
AND I'M FADING TO GREY
I LEAVE MY BODY THERE FOR YOU
NO LONGER RESISTING THE TIDE
AND AS I FLOAT AWAY I WONDER WHY
NOW I'M NOT AFRAID TO SAY GOODBYE
AND AS I FLOAT AWAY I WONDER WHY
NOW I'M NOT AFRAID TO SAY GOODBYE

THE POWER LINES ARE DOWN
WE'RE DISCONNECTED
CITY HAS BECOME AN INLAND SEA
THESE NATURAL DISASTERS
HAVE LEFT YOU STRANDED HERE WITH ME
IT'S TOO LATE TO LEAVE NOW
THE ROADS HAVE WASHED AWAY
IT'S TOO LATE TO LEAVE NOW
WE'VE WAITED TOO LONG
FIRESTORMS AND ATMOSPHERIC RIVERS
FLOOD WATERS CARRY SEWAGE AND DEBRIS
A GARBAGE DUMP RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR DOORSTEP
HAVE LEFT YOU STRANDED HERE WITH ME
IT'S TOO LATE TO LEAVE NOW
WE WERE SO UNPREPARED
IT'S TOO LATE TO LEAVE NOW
WE'VE WAITED TOO LONG
YOU'RE STRANDED HERE WITH ME
STRANDED HERE WITH ME
NOW YOU'RE STRANDED HERE WITH ME

WAVING IN THE FROZEN WIND
WITH THE FLAGS THAT LINE THE STREETS
PAST WARNING SIGNS OF RAT POISON
SNOW BENEATH OUR FEET
THROUGH THE PARK UNDER THE BRIDGE
OVER THE BARBED WIRE FENCES
INTO A TREE TO HANG ON WITH THE LEAVES
ALONE DEFENSELESS
WALKING ALONG THE WATERFRONT FOR YOU
IS IT ALRIGHT WITHOUT YOU?
WE WALK ALONG THE WATERFRONT FOR YOU
IS IT ALRIGHT WITHOUT YOU
SAILING OVER BUILDINGS MORE GRAND IN FORMER TIMES
REMEMBERING THE TOWERS THAT ONCE LIVED THERE IN THE SKY
WEAVING THROUGH THE TWISTY BLADES
PAPER THIN I FLOAT AWAY
BACK HOME TO THE SKELETON
WE DRINK TO WARMER DAYS
HOW LONG NOW HAVE YOU BEEN GONE?
SEEMS LIKE YOU JUST WALKED IN (HERE WE GO, WE GO)
I CAN STILL SEE YOU WAVING BACK
THROUGH THE WINDOW
WALKING ALONG THE WATERFRONT FOR YOU
IS IT ALRIGHT WITHOUT YOU?
WALKING ALONG THE WATERFRONT FOR YOU
IS IT ALRIGHT WITHOUT YOU?
IS IT ALRIGHT WITHOUT YOU?

HEAR THE BEATING OF THE DRUM
IT'S HOW THE WESTERN WORLD WAS WON
SICK EYES WATCHING EVERY POISON GAG
BLOTTING OUT THE LIGHT SOURCE OF YOUR MORNING DRAG
YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WHEN THEY ALL SING ALONG
HEY YOU UP THERE
WHY ARE YOU DRAWING OUT YOUR HIGHWIRE
STUMBLING THROUGH A DARKENED HOME
NEVER WONDERED NEVER KNOWN
LAUGHING THROUGH THE MIRROR AT YOUR ENDLESS CON
WILL THEY RIP YOUR NAME DOWN BEFORE HELL AND GONE
THE MOMENT WHEN THE STORY CHANGED AND EVERYTHING WENT WRONG
YOU CAN'T QUIT NOW (I'M NOT SO STRONG)
YOU'VE COME TOO FAR (IT'S TOO MUCH)
YOU'RE GONNA LEAVE THEM ALL DRIFTING OUT OF TOUCH
HEAR THE BEATING OF THE DRUM
IT'S HOW THE WESTERN WORLD WAS WON
AND NOW YOU FREE FALL FOREVER FROM YOUR HIGHWIRE
AND NOW YOU FREE FALL FOREVER FROM YOUR HIGHWIRE
FOREVER FREEFALL FROM YOUR HIGHWIRE
FOREVER FREEFALL FROM YOUR HIGHWIRE

TRY TO WRESTLE A SMILE ONTO YOUR FACE
IF YOU WANNA MAKE IT THROUGH THE NIGHT
BETTER LOWER YOUR EXPECTATIONS
MAKING IT UP AS YOU GO
MAKING A LOT OF EXCUSES
WELL, AT LEAST YOU'RE MAKING SOMETHING
I WANNA BE SOMETHING I STILL WANNA BE
BUT I NEED SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
I WANNA BE SOMETHING I STILL WANNA BE
JUST NEED SOMETHING WORTH BELIEVING
WANNA GET IT OVER WITH
WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE
MIGHT BE TOO LATE FOR YOU TO CHANGE
AND YOU KNOW THE LONGER YOU WAIT
THE CHANCES ARE GETTING SLIM,
YOU'LL EVER BE HAPPY IN THE END
I WANNA BE SOMETHING I STILL WANNA BE
BUT I NEED SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
I WANNA BE SOMETHING I STILL WANNA BE
JUST NEED SOMETHING WORTH BELIEVING
I NEED SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN
I NEED
I NEED SOMETHING
I NEED
I NEED SOMETHING

KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE STOWAWAY
SHE CAN'T AFFORD IT BUT SHE'S DREAMING ABOUT ANOTHER PLACE
BEEN HEARING FOOTSTEPS IN THE HALLWAY
YOU THINK YOU'VE FOUND HER
THEN SHE'S GONE WITHOUT A TRACE
SHE BELIEVE, DISAPPEAR
JUST LIKE THAT AND NOT COME BACK
NEVER TRACE ANOTHER TEAR
CROSS HER HARDENED HEART
OFF TO SEE ANOTHER WORLD
MAYBE FIND A BRAND NEW LOVE
MAYBE FIND SOMEONE TO HELP HER THROUGH ETERNAL DARKNESS
YOU KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE STOWAWAY
SHE'S AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE
I JUST KNOW SHE HAS TO BE
SOMEONE'S DRAWING PICTURES IN THE HALLWAY
I LEAVE A LIGHT ON
BUT THE SHADOW IS ALL I SEE
SHE BELIEVE, DISAPPEAR
JUST LIKE THAT AND NOT COME BACK
NEVER TRACE ANOTHER TEAR
CROSS HER HARDENED HEART
OFF TO SEE ANOTHER WORLD
MAYBE FIND A BRAND NEW LOVE
MAYBE FIND SOMEONE TO HELP HER THROUGH ETERNAL DARKNESS
SHE BELIEVE, DISAPPEAR
JUST LIKE THAT AND NOT COME BACK
NEVER TRACE ANOTHER TEAR
CROSS HER HARDENED HEART
OFF TO SEE ANOTHER WORLD
MAYBE FIND A BRAND NEW LOVE
MAYBE FIND SOMEONE TO HELP HER THROUGH ETERNAL DARKNESS
KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE STOWAWAY
LEAVE A LIGHT ON FOR THE STOWAWAY
KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE STOWAWAY
LEAVE A LIGHT ON FOR THE STOWAWAY

Ten Stories High
by The Bouncing Souls
supported by 38 fans who also own “Stowaway”
That album felt like coming home after a long time away but still being proud of everything I'd seen while I was gone. One minute and twenty seven seconds into "Kenver" feels like the culmination of everything I've loved about this band since I was a kid. It feels like the best parts of freedom I've felt on the best nights of my life.

Brave Faces Everyone
by Spanish Love Songs
supported by 35 fans who also own “Stowaway”
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world. But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up.

Sludge, Shoegaze, Atmospheric, Heavy Metal, Alt-metal, you name it. This album has it all, and it is perfect. It came out during a rough time period of my life and others lives too. It's been the soundtrack for all of my pain. Thank you Hum

Another perfect release from contemporary emo powerhouse Run for Cover records.

Their name is misleading: Nebraska group Uh Oh deliver delightfully raucous, guitar-driven rock & roll with rootsy hooks for days.

Коли ми були разом

Great, gutsy rock & roll from Kyiv, where radiant guitars surround triumphant vocal melodies.

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!!
