Fingers on my Side
02:27

I’m just running out
running out backwards
fingers on my side
if this is what you’re after
I’m just waiting for
a shopping cart disaster
a frozen aisle flirt
a shy sharp little smirk
I’m just looking for
a deal on dumb distractions
you point it out to me
it’s buy one get one free
I’m just checking out
which line is moving faster
the plastic peels apart
I can’t find where I parked

Folded Tongue
01:36
|

|
Don’t separate the fact and fiction
I need it in the world right now
I feel it in the form of friction
I aint ever gonna let it down
I arrive and stop for no one
I feel like a favor with a folded tongue

Big Bright Future
02:45
|

|
I’m running on empty
I’m running away
Though there’s nothing missing
Always the one to say
Who could have it all
I thought I had it all
It’s time to give it away
It’s sick we stay
It sticks
Won’t stray now
But I’m ashamed
I have to stay now
Oh god I’m right back in the blindness of my big bright future
It’s a perfect pleasure playing pretend for a night
It’s over
A scratch
I’ve been itching
It’s a smear
It’s a stain
I’m hot and I’m hissing
Nothing feels quite the same
Who could have it all
I thought I had it all
It’s time to give it away

Going Nowhere
01:21
|
|||
|
I sit and unfold both my hands
I stare at them like I got no plans
I feel completely unprepared
Nowhere to go I’m going nowhere

Head out of the Window
02:51
|
|||
|
Oh well it’s different
I’m moving miles on a mission
An overwhelming distance
But I’ll stay
No right time to fly
But there’s light in the sky
I hang my head out of the window of the car
Got it for free so I can take it all apart
Deplete the energy
I’m running with the wind
To a goddamn academy
Of pretend
I hang my head out of the window of the car
Got it for free so I can take it all apart
Wait up I’m feeling something
It’s not a lot but I’m feeling something
Wait up I’m feeling something
Coming to the end
I hang my head out of the window of the car
Got it for free so I can take it all apart

Scared of Everyone
02:45
|
|||
|
Lying down I feel the tick
I feel the time is still
Going out to be around someone who loves the thrill
I won’t get in bed with anyone
I’m so scared to death of everyone
I taste the blood in my mouth
I swish and spit it out
It’s desire
Let out the air from my tires
I learn your cues
A quiet cruise
You’re playing Worried Shoes
Company calls and company leaves again
I won’t get in bed with anyone
I’m so scared with everyone
I taste the blood in my mouth
I swish and spit it out
It’s desire
Let out the air from my tires

A fantastic album. I can see why they didn't continue under the name The Evens, as it's a different sound with the bass added. Coriky is the Evens + Joe Lally from Fugazi on bass. If you can imagine The Evens with a slightly more funky, aggressive sound like Fugazi... that's what you get! And there's no way that can ever go wrong. What a great debut album!!
