about

Friction is the latest single with upbeat punk energy making you instantly want to move along as it builds to a chorus filled with angst. It's a song about realizing no matter how hard you try, you can't change others but you can at least make the changes you need in yourself.
Each of our new singles have had cover art made by a favorite local artist and this ink and wash artwork was done by the amazingly talented Terren Weirick. Retrospective music video releasing at the same time to promote.

lyrics

Out come the liars and the thieves
Making life hard for the weak
Or weak at heart
My love it's been torn apart

I wish that I could say you wanted me
Sometimes the worst thing to do is wait and see

Got friction
Can't fix it
Musician not a magician
God damn it's not easy
But it doesn't have to be hard

You want me to close the door
But I'm already gone
I'm gone

I'd like to explain myself
But your drama is bad for my health
It makes others smile
To see me struggle but only for a while

I'm tired of waiting for others to change
I'll look into myself if I want to rearrange

Got friction can't fix it
Musician not a magician
God damn it's not easy
But it doesn't have to be hard

You want me to close the door
But I'm already gone
It can't be hard to believe
That deep down you wanted me to leave
I left

You want me to close the door
But I'm already gone
It can't be hard to believe
That deep down you wanted me to leave
