Verse 1: I don't have very lofty aspirations Not trying to be the voice of my generation Not looking for notoriety The quiet life's alright by me Just a modest man trying to improve my station I think I can get there if I work hard And I'm fortunate to have a bit of a head start A cheap old house would be enough I just need to keep it up My pace is good but the journey is still far Chorus: I just want a cheap old house That I bought with songs I wrote myself It could be up north, or it could be down south I could be on my own or with someone else I just want a cheap old house And to renovate, I might need some help So I can tell myself, when I'm full of doubt That my songs bought this house Verse 2: I'm not trying to pad some stranger's wallet I'd rather acquire assets, or whatever you call it I don't really care about money Don't know much about the economy Don't wanna pay rent, I'd rather pay monthly instalments Chorus: I just want a cheap old house That I bought with songs I wrote myself It could be up north, or it could be down south I could be on my own or with someone else I just want a cheap old house And to renovate, I might need some help So I can tell myself, when I'm full of doubt That my songs bought this house Bridge: And I don't think I'm expecting too much Having something to work towards is enough And maybe one day I'll save up enough to pay Five, ten, or maybe twenty down Chorus: I just want a cheap old house (Five, ten, or maybe twenty down) That I bought with songs I wrote myself It could be up north, or it could be down south (Five, ten, or maybe twenty down) I could be on my own or with someone else I just want a cheap old house (Etc.) And to renovate, I might need some help So I can tell myself, when I'm full of doubt That my songs bought this house

I Don't Know 04:04
Verse: I may not know how to plot a course To the career of my dreams But when I think about the songs I write I think they're enough for me Refrain: But I don't know Verse: What will come next, or how to get there Have I already peaked? I'll never know, how much time I have left But that makes me feel free Refrain: But I don't know Bridge: Three simple words It's okay to feel unsure If you act like you know Will you grow? I don't know Bridge: Three simple words It's okay to feel unsure Verse: All that I know is that there's no room left in My heart to hate anyone All that I know is that my days are numbered So I'll enjoy every one Modified Refrain: It's all I know

Options 05:12
Verse I won't do it 'cause I can't justify it I won't do it if I can't justify it I wouldn't do it if I couldn't justify it I always need to justify my actions I'm getting better at justifying my actions I'm always able to justify my actions now Pre-Chorus Give me a chance! Give me a chance! To show you how morally bankrupt I am! Give me a stance! Give me a stance! See how I got where I am? Chorus I just see options on the table I don't see morals Just paths to success More money, influence, and power Call it ambitious I'm gonna impress. You. All Verse 2 I swear I only have the purest intentions Trust me I started with the purest intentions I know that I only have selfish intentions now Pre-Chorus (extended) Give me a chance! Give me a chance! I'll prove my value to you and your plan! Give me a stance! Give me a stance! Tell me if you want me to jump ship again! Give me a chance! Give me a chance! To show you how morally bankrupt I am! Give me a stance! Give me a stance! See how I got where I am? Chorus I just see options on the table I don't see morals Just paths to success More money, influence, and power Call it ambitious I'm gonna impress. You Post-Chorus If you've ever wondered how I'm able to sleep at night I've told myself it's justified inside my mind If you ever wonder how I sleep at night Every single action has been justified Possible Solo Chorus I just see options on the table I don't see morals Just paths to success More money, influence, and power Call it ambitious I'm gonna impress. You Post-Chorus If you've ever wondered how I'm able to sleep at night I've told myself it's justified inside my mind If you ever wonder how I sleep at night Every single action has been justified

Absolute Jam 04:40
Verse: Are you sitting ill at ease? Felt like this a couple weeks? Are you looking for a release? Sing la da da ta da Are you in frustration's snare? Feel like pulling out your hair? I know we have all been there So la da da ta da Hook: La da ta da La da ta da La da da ta da Verse 2: We all may be in a jam But at least we're in a jam So right now we don't need a plan Just la da da ta da Hook: La da ta da La da ta da La da da ta da Bridge: This song has No meaning You could call it Almost absolute music Hook: La da ta da La da ta da La da da ta da

about

My goal with this EP was to make the performances as raw as possible, and to capture the energy of a live show, but with studio-quality production. The EP was recorded live off the floor, without a click track, and without any rehearsals. I sent the band some questionable demos roughly a month before the recording session, but that was it. We figured out what to play on the day of the session, recorded about six takes of each song, then picked the best take of each song to be mixed. No overdubs, no cutting between takes, no quantizing, and no pitch-correction/autotune. All of that said, it turned out sounding and looking better than I imagined!
