about

This one features some backing vox from Ryan Liptak!
He wrote the lyrics and he's a beautiful human being as well as
a member of my band Happy Tooth & Dug
and the sound engineer that mixed this record!
This one's about missing old friends and the "good times"
but also about how if you spend your whole life
looking back you won't see what's ahead.
Also getting so fucked up you don't know
if you had fun or not
because you can't remember most of it.

lyrics

I miss the good times.
Back when everything would rhyme.
We used to see who'd get the loosest.
Now there's all these excuses.
Yeah I miss the good times.
I miss my old friends.
There's memories I can't find.
I wish that I could hold them.

I miss the good times.
I miss the good times.
Not sure if they were good times.
I miss the good times.
I miss the good times.

(Ryan Liptak)

Don't fade, don't fade.
I'm looking at the feeling.
It won't stay, old days
always had the brightest stars.
Don't fade, don't fade.
I'm looking at the feeling.
It won't stay, old days
don't have to feel as far.

Cause all we are is puppets.
Stomach upset in public.
And I wanna say somethin
but don't like makin assumptions.
There's all this discussion
but no ones sayin nothin.
You must be mad at me,
actually it's gravity casually
weighing me down.
A fast asleep casualty.

(Chorus)

Don't know where I'm headed.
So I just head straight.
The feeling'll come back around.
All I gotta do is just wait.

"Both Happy Tooth and BDotJeff spoke to the idea that music can be therapeutic, and writing and recording is now less about reaching a larger audience than steadying the turmoil within. “You do start to question your own motivations, like, why am I doing this?” Happy Tooth said. “And I’ve realized that I love the art, and I have to make it because deep down it makes me feel better.” - MatterNews ... more
