lyrics

Creatures in my head they tell me desperate things
but I don't let them get the best of me all
looking for a place, been waiting anxiously
my head's been stuck in space
I swear to you it's not my fault

I don't wanna wait forever for something that'll never change
'cause we're not getting any better this life is so deranged
I watched the light drain out of our future,
it left an image burning in my head
never a time to try and find a solution
nobody asked for this...

Trying hard to breathe
i'm making everything more hard than it should be
i'm trying not to feel so dull
or leave me here to bleed
I've come to terms, i've learned that everybody leaves
I'm trying hard to keep control

I don't wanna wait forever for something that'll never change
'cause we're not getting any better this life is so deranged
I watched the light drain out of our future,
it left an image burning in my head
never a time to try and find a solution
nobody asked for this...

Push this blade into my throat
let out the words we never spoke
grind my teeth and smash my bones
until there's nothing left

by Ghostpool, Hand Out

We met Hand Out last summer when they came up to Buffalo. Their live show is unreal. We wanted to get as much of it as we could, so we toured together & planned the NYLA split. Show them some love! GHOSTPOOL

We have so much love for Carpool. "I Think Everyone's A Cop" is a work of art. They are such sweethearts too, we just feel lucky to know them and have pool parties with them all the time. <3 GHOSTPOOL
