I've been dragging my feet across finish lines And the pain gets more sharp every time I step over my past mistakes Soon these sprains will turn into fucking breaks If my corner is full than why do I feel empty Like someone came and beat out the best of me Still I lace up and fight so they don't know I'm on the verge of a Holden Caufield episode I wanna run away I wish that you could see Everything that's going on inside of me Without it pouring out all over the floor Being left to get mopped up By a sponge that just can't hold enough Of anything, anything any more I left it all on the kitchen floor

Glue 04:01
Is the end really for the best That's something I don't know The only thing that I'm certain of is That I've never felt like this before I'm trying, but I can't explain this pain And no matter how hard I try Happiness can't be sustained Like an hourglass as time passed We fell to the bottom Like all the leaves on all the trees We died at the end of Autumn What can you do when love can't even glue All of the pieces together My calluses bleed as I try to keep you in my life But I can't hold on forever I finally found a place For my heart to call a home But you just can't keep paying rent For the fear of ending up alone So my stay was only temporary But I'll cherish every single moment That you ever spent with me There was nothing wrong, nothing wrong but time My heart came up short in a war with my mind There was nothing wrong, nothing wrong but time I'll miss the days where I could call you mine

So Low, Solo 03:27
They say that the other side is greener But I don't see any grass at all All I see is rocky pavement To scrape my knees when I fall down After tripping over my own feet On the sidewalk cracks Caused by the lifting roots of the trees I don't blame time like I used I know things can't stay the same But I don't feel anything From anyone Anymore and any time soon I'll run anywhere That I can get to on these fumes But everything And everyone leaves me empty every time I swear Everywhere I go I'm not satisfied I never learned to color in-between the lines of this old book Because my hands were way too shaky And the medicine I took Put me through the daily motions without realizing That the smile on my face was merely disguising How broken and torn I was inside At the time I just didn't know why I'm so low and solo

It's ironic that I had so many great people help me put together an EP about being alone. I'd like to thank Gavin Stacey for co-producing the project with me and continuing to be a part of what I do musically. Wouldn't have been able to do it without him. Elliot, Jong, Mike, and Dom came in on short notice and played awesome parts. Last but not least, I'd like to thank Josh for doing an awesome job on the mixes.

With Love,
Andrew
