Chaos 03:30
Dismissive is fed up with extremes She says that chaos is not her scene She'd rather hide out underground Then hear what detractors are putting down Putting down Putting down Doubt thinks it’s crazy to take Love’s call Without any guarantee at all Fear pushes buttons to spur him on Being disruptive until Love's gone Until Love's gone Until Love's gone Trust has just hit town and said he has our back Honest is gaining ground and launching her attack Launching her attack We got it made on the inside to make our way Let the posers fight it out in the fray What Popular offers we can’t use If we stick together we can’t lose We can’t lose We can’t lose

Enlighten Me 03:26
Recognizing Sympathy She is sitting next to me Concealing her identity Waiting for Calamity To frighten me Undermining Empathy Doubt tries taking hold of me Concealing his identity Reveals his secrets desperately To threaten me Love will find it best to try Avoiding Hate’s pathetic lies And narrowly escape this place and time In the future Love’s just fine Answers questions singing rhymes You're recognized despite all your disguise Shattering inequity Truth becomes a deputy Concealing their identity Vows to light the way for me To enlighten me

Are you tired of living on the brink Doubt will always let us sink Unplug the TV rest yr eyes To all distractions wave goodbye When Love cracks the code When love cracks the code By the time Love cracks the code We'll be headed home Detractors lead us with a wink While haters have a special stink They're both too weak to even try When we succeed they’ll just spew lies When Love cracks the code When love cracks the code By the time Love cracks the code We'll be headed home There's no time to stop and think You might miss it if you blink The look in teenage Jesus’ eye Is yr reflection’s heavy sigh

Love hits town to make you question Everything you need Giving doubt a transfusion Love’s concocting potions So she permeates my dreams It’s a total infusion Love changed all direction signs Now they’re pointing to believe Erasing confusion Love keeps a low profile So the skeptics make her scene By dropping allusions Both barrels hit between your eyes Then love will profess to be surprised

Nitwit Scene 04:13
People are running around it’s just like a circus They waste all their time but that’s OK It won’t matter at all because she’s perfect She's making that whole nitwit scene fade away Fade away fade away Fade away fade away People don't understand love they think they deserve it They're not happy at all unless they complain It won’t matter at all because she’s perfect And she's making that whole nitwit scene fade away Fade away fade away Surprise surprise if they’d wake up they’d find The world looks right through Love’s eyes Surprise surprise if they’d wake up they’d find The world looks right through Love’s eyes Through Love’s eyes Through Love’s eyes Through Love’s eyes

Sad But True 03:28
Celebrity flew in She's Normal's new best friend Gone viral overnight Who am I to say what’s right Who am I to say what’s right The workers struck for fame Lennin's on sale again When Hate becomes devout I’ll end up having to bow out I’ll end up having to bow out And it’s sad but true That I can’t follow you And I don’t know what to say Guess I'll remain no one today, today Everything's the same People never change Fear is on display They'll send donations while they pray Send in donations while they pray Can Reason just hang on When Faith is packed and gone Running from the fray Will Hope and Love still leave today Will Hope and Love still leave today

Vanity 05:04
She’s made a god of fashion and glossy magazines She’s stuck between its pages and sewn into it’s seams She is staying home today But her friends are just in town She’ll be inside preening While they all run around Why she’s such a loner? These days, no one seems to know She rather be secluded than be seen in last year’s clothes She’s vanity and that’s exactly what she’s called Where style ends and she begins You can’t tell them apart at all She’s made a god of fashion and glossy magazines She’s stuck between its pages and sewn into it’s seams Like the Spring collection Her lovers come and go They’re so quick to fall for her Then give up much to slow Yes, she will recoil When your desire draws you nearer You will find you can’t compete With her true love the mirror She’s vanity and that’s exactly what she’s called Where style ends and she begins You can’t tell them apart at all

about

the Sawtelles Connecticut

Married duo the Sawtelles are a balance of four elements, guitar in alternate tunings, various drum kit configurations, and two voices. Sparse but intricately arranged pop that is as lush as it is threadbare makes what is played just as important as what isn’t. ... more
