We can make them fall in our direction, right? We can make them fall in line Have them marching in time The kids are bored as hell and we can see it in their eyes, they're fucking high They're drinking pop, singing songs about God knows what But it all makes sense, we can foster them, in time We can make them fall in We can make them fall in our direction, right? We can make them fall in line Have them marching in time We've seen legions of preteens Rebel for reasons they don't believe in We know they're smart We've got the drugs We've got the games We've got the things that they want And the sickest part We're gonna use them for our gain With no regard for what they say Or what they want

Did you get to take a walk outside? See the banners and the foreign signs All the people walking on their hands And I danced, I danced It's enough to make a modern man Reassess his business plan Trade in all of his stocks and bonds And live off of the land We could've ended up anywhere Plane crash while stalled mid-air Shipwrecked on the ocean floor While on a whale tour Thank god for the concierge Coffee and cushioned chairs All the books that I've never read And that we're not dead And as we made our way back home We took our time, we took it slow We weren't concerned with the western world We weren't sure that we'd return And as we made our way back home We took our time, we took it slow

Candles Out 03:30
Heard you say you're done with love now Gonna wait until your heart can take the pain Gonna take some time to think it over, let it fade away before you settle down again Darling don't waste no time, pay no mind, it will haunt you It's understood, love can hurt when it don't work, it is meant to Seen you at the store this evening Walking past the aisles like a ghost Your hair was a mess, girl you need some rest Hope you got yourself right home Darling don't waste no time, pay no mind, it will haunt you It's understood, love can hurt when it don't work, it is meant to Your past reads like a novel in a sense When you're feeling stable, an unfortunate event Put's the candles out, fills you with doubt Sends you running, spinning around Darling don't waste no time, pay no mind, it will haunt you It's understood, love can hurt when it don't work, it is meant to

Please just stop yourself from rambling I don't care about your weekend fling Or the veggies in your garden That's none of my concern Just keep yourself from speaking There's a reason I keep walking on Some people wanna talk and talk and talk Oh son Go tell it to a wall Chances are I'm lying Feigning interest in your thoughts on haute design Is there more to the story? Like a car slamming into your home in the middle of the night Otherwise... Go tell it to a wall Do you process the words I say? Notice I never ask about your day? Do you process the words I say? Or do they get lost on the way to your brain? Go tell it to a wall Go tell it to a wall Go tell it to your ma Go tell it to the postman, reverend, the emperor of Japan Go tell it to a wall

All your tiny feelings getting mixed up in your head and now it's aching All this rotten business on your brain Just keep it cool and keep it calm and I'll help to protect you from the places All the people that you know There's a light There's a ghost You're in a tunnel You're in the heart, stuck there in the middle You think too hard and look too deep into the things that they just keep on saying You're letting them get in on all your nerves Shut it out and let them win, we're not here to fight about decisions We made long, long, long, long time ago There's a light There's a ghost You're in a tunnel You're in the heart, stuck there in the middle Listening, listening to old crows Your brittle spine, misaligned and growing worse The calcium sucked dry from your bones Your skinny limbs, useless cuz they don't work This is when, this is when you go home All your tiny feelings getting mixed up in your head and now it's aching All this rotten business on your brain

The north wind Came whistling And it woke us up I put on my jacket Said, "I'll check it out" I grabbed my lantern and my hat Said, "Betty, hold tight til I come back" Outside It was wet as hell The thunderstorm Ripped our sails I reached for The railing But a sudden shift Threw me from the ship And I could not be found Listen, don't be sad I'm just missin' I ain't dead

about

"Go Tell It To A Wall sees a development in SARN’s sound. It’s very much a continuation of the previous EP, but you can feel the “weird” that was asked of John Vanderslice in certain places...The clear stand out track on the EP, however, comes in the form of Candles Out. It’s the KIT of the second EP, but with a greater compassion towards lyrics and feeling. Where in many of SARN’s tracks the lyrcis hold their own, here the harmonies and melody really do them justice. It’s a haunting track, organ pads and all, but it’s beautiful. Really beautiful...8/10."

"'Just keep yourself from speaking/There’s a reason I keep walking on' Sarn’s voice sounds so sincere and sweet, but he is not fucking around - he really has no interest in anything you have to say. I dig it."
