tonight i'm reaching out to you in stereo sound
this sky is bleeding memories that will rip the sun down
you left me in july
but when this record plays it's like you're with me
i've been giving all i have and putting someone else first
and opening my heart only to make me feel worse
five years now you've been gone
so i tell these things to songs just like you're with me
you're so far away
these conversations seem to have a time and a place
just for a moment, glad and sorry, i almost see your face
a song that makes you real
a song that makes me feel like you are with me
and there are songs that bring you back
guess when you're leaving in july the goodbyes come too fast
although the moment never lasts, songs bring you back
you're so far away
i keep our melodies as memories in my bones
you seem to almost appear when i hear them alone
i want to scream each note out loud until they reach you in the clouds just like you're with me

Truly amazing record. Whiskey-soaked vocals, tight melodies and fantastic lyrics roll together in a wash of punk energy. More akin to an amped up JAWBREAKER or a revved up BEACH SLANG than pop-punk, there isn't a weak track on it. Excellent. Pick of the week for sure... Michael F.
