Blue moon, you come too fast...
2.
Peace, it only makes you bored, without all of your wars, you’ll wonder what to do Love, it only makes you old, and who wants to grow old, so love is not for you But Fly, you were always meant to fly, like a sunrise through the sky, like a tear across your eye Bones, they only hold you back, yes, literally hold your back (up), so you don’t need that Skin, it’s just the stuff you’re in, shed it like your sins, and wear your muscles proud Hope, a fancy word for wait, it’s already too late, you gotta go today, Faith is something you believe, sometimes your wings, is all the faith you need Chorus Soul, it might be just a hole, when you die that’s where you’ll go, the truth is we don’t know So fly, it’s your last chance to try, with a needle in your eye, promise me you’ll fly

I know the way to make you mad I take you there and take you back It’s natural in a world with just two Found the way to make you laugh Take you to that heart attack We’ll break our arms the way we fall into Me and you got nothing left to do but love it through With screams and laughs we swim and drown The house it falls apart around The world it spins but always stays with you Beers and toys and dollar bills We ride the wave of tears and spills All the truth comes out when we’re through Me and you we got nothing left to do but love it through A promise is a curse sometimes A curse can break the spell that binds The heart that splits the earth into two But earthquakes are a way of showing All the ways we are still growing From strangers into lovers me and you

What a beautiful face...

about

While busy working on a studio album of new Americana/Folk songs, The Falderals had some extra bits and pieces we wanted to push out from our home studio, songs we've been messing around with for years but couldn't find room for on our last album, Radio, or our forthcoming. So we made this little EP in order to get the songs out of our system. "Blue Moon" is our attempt at a folk blues tune. "Nickel and Dime" is a song that's grown with Andy, from high school, to his time with Gatewood, and The Falderals still perform it regularly. "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" is our favorite cover song, which we finally dared to record. And we've also included "Fly Song" and "Love it Through," songs we had a blast recording, but were perhaps a bit too experimental for our upcoming studio album. Enjoy.
