Have Some Shame

Realness brings you loyalty
Authenticity brings you luxury
But still my car is cold
Have you ever felt so old?
Have you ever felt this old?
I will cover the bill for all of my new clothes
But once you take a picture
I won’t need them no more
I won’t wear them anymore, no
My hair dyed all gold
and I’ll never leave my home
I must go now before I’ve said too much
Before I’m too close to touch
I must go before the rush
My heart is floating in the kitchen sink
It’s full and fat and honest I think
But oh, my bloody friend
you pantomime your pain again
But if I had your fame for a day
I’d still throw it all away
I must go now before I’ve said too much
Before I’m too close to touch
I must go before the rush
We are the same, but you feel no shame
We are the same, but you feel no shame
We are the same
I must go now before I’ve said too much
Before I’m too close to touch
I must go before the rush
We’d be twin flames if you had some shame
If you have same shame
We’d be twin flames if you had some shame
Have some shame

Blow-Up
03:08
|

Playing with the fear that grows in bugs
It brings out all of our inner thugs
Playing with your shoehorned sympathy
There’s a false dichotomy
Now we’re moving on so step on my head
Like my early morning bed
Now we’re moving on so step on my head
Anything within me will blow-up
Is this the death you’re dreaming of
Four wall years disguise your golden tears
Keeping soul in your eyes
And building tooth castles in my mind
My glass vision leaks tears again
In a no name circus tent
With a red square with a white picket fence
Now we’re moving on so step on my bed
So tell me what have you read
Now we’re moving on so step on my head
Anything within me will blow-up
Is this the death you’re dreaming of
Anything within me will blow-up
Is this the death you’re dreaming of

Did you even read it?
Could you tell me what it means?
Or would you even spell it all out for me
Isn’t it gibberish?
Isn’t it all utter tosh?
Drinking the remains of literary backwash
Say something about yourself
Say something we don’t already know
Say something new for once
So we can all go home
Say something about yourself
Say something we don’t already know
Say something new for once
So we can all go home
Oh well, you’ve made it plain to me
Oh, you’ve made it so easy to read
Filled with simple words and generalities
It’s all so profound
It’s so Velvet Underground
Say something about yourself
Say something we don’t already know
Say something new for once
So we can all go home
Say something about yourself
Say something we don’t already know
Say something new for once
So we can all go home
So we can all go home

I don’t know if I
Love or hate palm trees
It’s not like they mean anything to me
And the heat and dust
Never broke our trust
And the sweat in our eyes
Never blinded humid skies
I know you mean so much more
I know you mean so much more
I sat down and cried on the side of Highway 59
The double mirror as your disguise
I laid down and died on the side of Highway 59
The double mirror as your disguise
And if you had a life to spare
Could you afford me half?
And if I had the right to care
Would you even need it back?
The sun shines right into our eyes
Leaving your sunny life in mine
Our arms and veins intertwined
Wrapped up in our sunny behinds
Our thighs and eyes intertwined
Leaving ivory towers behind
I know you mean so much more
I know you mean so much more
I sat down and cried on the side of Highway 59
The double mirror as your disguise
I laid down and died on the side of Highway 59
The double mirror as your disguise
I sat down and cried on the side of Highway 59
Our arms and legs intertwined with the smog in our eyes
The sun shines right into our eyes leaving your sunny life in mine
Our arms and legs intertwined like the flowers on the vine

Pomp and Circumstance

Morgan, this is your moment
To shine
And hear your name sung
And get up on the stage
But you hear a shot
And you forget what’s taught
And the tune is all wrong
And here’s a bullet for your thoughts
And here’s a bullet for your thoughts
How mad youth can feel so long
Twilight youth cultivates cries
And you never got to say goodbye
Screams shake off of concrete
Police and thieves get paid across the street
And here’s a bullet for your thoughts
Drain your veins of shame
Sleep now away the pain
Morgan knows there’s no point in
Having children
When we’re all brain dead pilgrims
And here’s a bullet for your thoughts
Drain your veins of shame
Sleep away the pain
And here’s a bullet for your thoughts
How mad youth can feel so long

Last Chance for Romance

In my head is where I follow you
But in the meantime I’ve still got a job to do
In my free time is when I see you
But in the meantime I’ve still got a job to do
Around here I hear they don’t know your name
But I still pretend to know you
Though I shouldn’t want to
Sing it might be your last chance
Don’t let your feet fall off
Don’t stop the dance
Still kiss me I’m your last chance for romance
Sing it might be your final chance
Don’t let your head fall off
Don’t stop the trance
Still dance with me
I’m your last chance for romance
I have a song to sing
With my hair so pristine
If I don’t stop my feet
They won’t see defeat all over my face
My glass blue lips and last great claim
I only wanted your love and acclaim
What’s now imagined once was proved
A thousand plans and nothing to do, and nothing to do
Sing it might be your last chance
Don’t let your feet fall off
Don’t stop the dance
Still kiss me I’m your last chance for romance
In my head is where I follow you
My selfish ways still have a job to do
In my head is when I see you
My selfish ways still have something to prove
I have a song to sing
With my hair so pristine
If I don’t stop my feet
They won’t see defeat all over my face

Autocratic Gore
04:08
|
|||
|
Overwhelmed in the emptiness
With no guilt to confess
About taking the easy way out
Abandoning the devout
No more, no more
Autocratic gore
For you, for you
It's all for you
For sure, for sure
A wife and a life at least is something for me to do
Assume no one would forget you
Leave my head on Berlin steps
To recover on my debut
In former life footsteps
No more, no more
Autocratic gore
For you, for you
It's all for you
For sure, for sure
A wife and a life at least is something for me to do
I deconstruct all my empathy
To construct my apathy
To reconstruct my sympathy
To reconstruct reality
Uh-oh
We last, we last the drought of ego
Where open land grows
Green blossoms in our hands
And gives the strength, the strength to stand
Face to face with the status quo
And spit in the face of god
No more, no more
Autocratic gore
For you, for you
It's all for you
For sure, for sure
A wife and a life at least is something for me to do
No one gets, gets no land
And no one gets to heaven
It's all a sabotaged plan to keep us beheaded
The rich get richer the poor get children
No more, no more
Autocratic gore
For you, for you
It's all for you
For sure, for sure
A wife and a life at least is something for me to do
I deconstruct all my empathy
To construct my apathy
To reconstruct my sympathy
To reconstruct reality

The Crest of a Wave
04:13
|

Feel the breeze of last years breath
Cold and familiar bereft of regret
Waves washing silver into gold
Loving the side you’ve been told
I told you not to mention-
Last year I ended up in
My favorite coat on the train
To what I wanted
Most
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to call back to your country
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to crawl back to your company
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to call back, I tried to call back
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to crawl back, I tried to crawl back
I died on the
Crest of
A wave with
Nothing left
To say
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to call back to your country
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to crawl back to your company
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to call back, I tried to call back
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to crawl back, I tried to crawl back
I followed the rocks but lost track
Off the edge with everything I lack
Rain down and reign over me
I tried to crawl back to your company

Pop Star Salvation

What’s the contrast?
Does it make it any better?
Will the distinction last?
And put you in the history books forever
Making every stranger that much wetter
Does it make it any better?
The highest bid on a tear stained love letter
Work’s the blackmail of survival
Put my name adorned in black leather
Place your plastic pain
On a pedestal
Convinced your prose is full and not plain
Or skeletal
Hanging like a floating feather
Chasing fame and fading fast
Well innovation’s now or never
Changing like unpredictable weather
Waiting your turn in the rotation
Queuing up for pop star salvation
Waiting for your grand ovation
Queuing up for pop star salvation
Waiting your turn in the rotation
Queuing up for pop star salvation
Waiting for your grand ovation
Queuing up for pop star salvation
Waiting your turn in the rotation
Queuing up for pop star salvation

Hailing from Boston since their debut EP in 2021, True Faith's sound is at its very core classic post-punk and coldwave. However, their single In Vain is a picture book example of their innovative spirit, with the melancholic piano melody accompanying the driven foundation and juxtaposing Travis Benson’s brash vocals. And when the saxophone starts dancing, In Vain becomes ungodly great.

This EP (which features Meg Remy of U.S. Girls) is punchy dance-punk that operates at a low, insistent simmer.
