The Switch 02:36
I guess it seemed like a sure thing But I'm certainly not certain, of anything You had me, I would have done almost anything that you said It wasn't my favourite Sunday Despite everything, I owe you more than you know I just wish it had ended up another way Forget me, And repeat Momentarily It’s time, there’s never enough Some things, are better left, unsaid
2.
We learn, from our mistakes Take shelter, from the burning sun Time won't heal you It hurts to let go but you know That you're bleeding out, Listening to everyone, Who's got something to say And it makes no difference, if you're gonna be this way I know we're all grown up, and we should know better than to lead ourselves on The lights are on but nobodies home You couldn't tell me that I'm wrong And I, wanna be - free from this
3.
Wallflowers 02:44
You and me, oh we’re just two seeds The sky fell in on us And I don’t know how to breathe, without you But i’m learning, one fuck-up at a time Nothing feels right The earth is still moving, underneath my feet It’s hard to see, you be, so much happier than me I don’t, want to know where my true north is Another month, another year won’t make a difference Give me a sign, stay out of my mind. This is so fucked up I know that I could follow you, and heaven knows I wanted to Yes or no, it’s a simple question Letting go, means letting go
4.
They're frail words
 A declaration, to no one
 I'm not ready yet, to face you
 None of this, could ever be enough
 To erase you, from my mind I think we should, just let the grass grow
 over our bones 
And it's colder now than it ever was before The new season swept in and I, I watched you bloom I'm safer in my skin, to not know where you’ve been And like flowers die, without light I’m sick of you, always being my endless night We should stay buried, tonight
5.
The Orchid 03:08
I’m sure I’m so unsure Sorry, have my apologies for whatever happens next And I wish it were, as simple as Boarding Oceanic, flight 815 But I’m, stuck here Pushing a button, trapped in a dream And I, don’t want - to be afraid anymore Like I, can’t - go back If I can escape my ghosts, break out of these handcuffs Get up out of that chair, then I - won’t break your heart Five seconds, to be afraid Maybe not this time, maybe in another life We just keep turning, the wheel I know that I, have to go back Yeah I do
6.
New Reasons 02:30
Well I’ve never been, much of a betting man But I’ll lay it all down, that you’ll lose interest And we’re drawn, like moths To every single new noise, and every colour change There’s no reason, only endless stars to blame Our patience wanes, every time we hear a new name Moving on, getting older It takes so much more to feel the same And I find myself, saying that I’m sorry, more and more You know that I’ll let you down tonight again If I’m not sure now, then I’m not sure that I ever will be Some things are made to change you, Some things are made to break you
7.
I can't help, but wonder If your reflection matches mine Let's just pretend, that we have the time To figure it out, to understand Exactly what it is that Makes us, always want what we can't have Always be so god damn, selfish We want more, we always want more I don't, expect much from you I know exactly what I got myself into But I, couldn't have prepared For the feeling of, the tables being turned I'm still wondering what makes us, Look through anything that falls beyond us It's all a means to a God-damned end You want more, you always want more I can't be this
8.
We set our sights on forever I couldn’t wait to work things out But courage fades, and patience tires Eventually the burdens that we carry, become regrets Mistaking, dependency for love Reacting, when all the damage was - already done I’m boiling over, and this is my head on - a silver platter I know I waited, for far too long Could I have imagined? Ever being happy in your presence Did I miscalculate the comfort, that I thought went with that Forever is never permanent
9.
Desperately, hoping for the end Self assured, we keep on living it Openly, keeping secrets close Failing to, check out of it And I feel, like i’m slipping away I’ll make no exceptions, for today When you meet my ghost, tell him that it’s okay It’s okay I’m not asking for much, just that the winter ends and the summer never comes Just have another drink tonight, I hope that I will sleep just fine But i’m still, heartbroken for you Broken for you

about

A debut full length collection of nine angst-driven, introspective songs. Further experimenting with their particular blend of indie rock styles, Wallflower dives further into a mix of simple melodic ideas meeting occasionally math rock-influenced guitar work.

With the exception of drums, which were recorded with Chris Blancato at his personal studio, the majority of the record was recorded DIY in a tiny Newtown bedroom. The mixing and mastering portion of the record was left to U.S.A-based producer Jack Shirley, previously of Comadre & Everybody Row, at his Oakland, California studio.
