ausername27 This kinda explains my life to be honest. A journey of someone "close" to a narcissist. These songs are just perfect too, I can't really pick a favorite, but transcendence is definitely one I like just a little bit more. Favorite track: Transcendence (January 2nd).

Bry Another extremely fun and refreshing release from AnimalJam! Not a single track disappoints, each one brings something new to the table.

Equal parts catchy and interesting just like their previous EP, I'm super excited for whatever they release next!

I. REPUDIATION (NEW YEAR'S EVE) Lyrics by Nate Denson & Jonny Walden [VERSE 1] Hey! I just want to say This is really great The way you pick apart Every little thing You hold your golden fleece Above for I am weak Another reproach to prove that I'm wrong! [PRECHORUS] DOLEFUL AND DISCONSOLATE, MOROSE YOU LEAVE ME Forlorn... TAKE A BREATH AND THEN TRY TO ASSESS BUT I JUST CAN’T STOP Can't stop... NARCISSISTIC CHARLATAN YOU'RE SO CONVINCING Feeling... WRETCH AND ABHOR EVERY GESTURE. CURSE MY NAME AND DESECRATE THE STARS I HUNG FOR YOU! [CHORUS] Can we fall asleep tonight? And make believe we're both alright? And to you... I say goodnight! Promise me you'll leave my dreams, Cause I can't bear to be happy And to you... I say goodnight! [VERSE 2] Damn! Can't believe we said All the things we did Hurtful words you say Stab into my neck The bond we have is weak Strained and frayed for weeks I never wanted for it to come to this [PRECHORUS] TRY TO COPE WITH LOSING HOPE WHILE YOU RESENT ME Lying... FIND YOURSELF IN SOMEONE ELSE DECEPTION'S BREEDING Over and over again now... CONSCIOUS EFFORTS MADE DESPITE OUR UNDERSTANDING Breaking... MY WORD, SUCH NERVE FURTIVE MALICE, SELFISH PROWESS ERODING MY SENSE OF WORTH [CHORUS] [BRIDGE] So I choose to light the pyre Watch it burn down the room and We both choose to expire We'll burn alone, we’ll burn in hell [FINAL CHORUS] Cinch every thread so you'll never leave METICULOUSLY RIPPING AT EVERY SEAM STOIC NO LONGER JUST LET ME LEAVE Altruistic misdeeds breed catastrophe PANDERING MERELY FOR DECENCY My own reservations have leveled me FABRIC THAT REEKS OF DECEIT Why oh why can we not sleep? FRAY THESE STRINGS AND FINALLY CEASE [OUTRO] Can we fall asleep tonight? And pray for sleep before the light For I don't know what to do When I'm awake

III. DESOLATION (NEW YEAR'S DAY) Lyrics by Nate Denson & Jonny Walden [INTRO] Close the maw This void surrounding me Starry gaze into a mirror Yeah DISTRACTION IS KEY SO TAKE ME AWAY [VERSE 1] Am I closer now? Dopamine defensive This escapade I thought I must have dreamt this But now I see clear Clearly I resent this This seam... Has been pulled [PRECHORUS] There it goes Will I wake to mourn what's been? We don't know Hesitate, the memory comes back again [CHORUS] It's just the way I compromise with how I'm feeling It's just the way I try to fool myself when shit don't make sense [SHIT DON'T MAKE SENSE] Capsules complicate me as I feed into this farce And I kinda wish you'd kill me [VERSE 2] Breathe Breathe out tiny fractals That used to be my future [PRECHORUS] [CHORUS] IT'S JUST THE WAY I COMPROMISE WITH HOW I'M FEELING [BREATHE OUT BURNT TINY FRACTALS] IT'S JUST THE WAY I TRY TO FOOL MYSELF WHEN SHIT DON'T MAKE SENSE [THAT USED TO BE MY FUTURE] CAPSULES COMPLICATE ME AS I FEED INTO THIS FARCE [BREATHE OUT BURNT TINY FRACTALS] AND I KINDA WISH YOU'D KILL ME [USED TO CONSUME MY DREAMS] [BRIDGE] [VERSE 1 REVISITED] [PRECHORUS] [INTRO REVISITED]

IV. TRANSCENDENCE (JAN 2ND) Lyrics by Nate Denson, Jonny Walden, & Colby Hughes [INTRO] [STRIP THE VEIL FROM THESE BLOODSHOT EYES] [VERSE 1] They left me Comatose inside a dream But I was smiling As they lay me down to sleep [Astral Float] Memory Came rushing back to me This pain I live with Familiar atrophy [Will I go?] [PRECHORUS] I don't think that I'm the same! [Is this a dream? Why can't I wake?] But these old bones, they can't complain... [Lost in this space, without a voice] I don't think that I'm the same! [Is this a dream? Why can't I wake?] These old bones can't complain... [Lost in this space, without a voice] I nose dived [CHORUS] I'm not coming back To feel worthless Give me a reason To get out of bed Cause I don't see it And I don't feel like I'm still a person [VERSE 2] Leave me be In a place that I can't see The more I travel The less I want to leave [Vibrations] What can I say for myself? I wasn't made to be loved But I'm still stuck in this place So I will just be okay Soon I'll wake up And have to face the day [I am gone] [PRECHORUS] [CHORUS] [BRIDGE] MAYDAY! MAYDAY! YOU NEED TO WAKE UP THE CAPTAIN NO WAY! NO WAY! JUST DISMISS YOUR REACTION OXYGEN LEVELS ARE SLOWLY DEPLETING FUCK, THIS MISSION IS FLEETING APATHETICALLY SEETHING I'M STILL NOT SEEING CRITICAL DAMAGE TO THE LEFT SIDE ALL IS CLEAR, BABY LET IT RIDE SOMEONE PLEASE HEAR THIS TRANSMISSION NO SIGNALS OF URGENT CONDITION I AM JUST COMFORTABLE ENDLESSLY FLOATING THERE'S NO NEED FOR EMOTING SAY TO HELL WITH THE WHOLE THING YOU NEED TO WAKE UP I JUST WANT TO FLY! I JUST WANT TO FLY! I JUST WANT TO... [STRIP THE VEIL FROM THESE BLOOD SHOOT EYES] I JUST WANT TO DIE! [PRECHORUS] [Will I go?] I nose dived [CHORUS]

V. RESOLUTION (JAN 3RD) Lyrics by Nate Denson & Jonny Walden [VERSE 1] You don't love me anymore I ache to find a reason for our story Everything was crazy [EVERYTHING WAS CRAZY!] Every detail sordid Read between the lines and tell me why I feel like I have just been dying out STRIVE FOR UNDERSTANDING, THOUGH TRY AS I MIGHT EVERY PATH I HOPED WOULD FINE ME HOME MERELY BRED THE DAWN OF MY DEMISE ONE MORE TIRED REPRISE PERPETUAL THORN IN MY SIDE [Oh... Here I am. Shift the sand, I'll sink] I'm alright [PRECHORUS] You say I can't answer fate. But it's just a style change. The world has gone out to play. And took my voice far away. [CHORUS] I reign supreme in Hell Celebration! Celebration! To choose this path I'm on Separation! Separation! [VERSE 2] I can walk out the door And once outside I feel like I can breathe now Keep it all together [KEEP IT ALL TOGETHER!] At least till you get to the car Tell the truth my thoughts conclude that this is just a stammer in my rhyme NAUSEOUS AND DESPONDENT FLING YOURSELF DOWN THE STAIRS BLINDLY RIFLE THROUGH THE STACKS, COP SOME BOOKS ABOUT REPAIR TALK ME DOWN, BLEED IT OUT FACE THE DAY, RECTIFY THE DISMAY [Oh... Here I am. Shift the sand, I'll sink] I'm alright [BRIDGE] Crying... gasping... On a kitchen floor... Feeling so weak, coffee spilling But I'm still alive today [PRECHORUS] [CHORUS] [OUTRO] Celebration!
