I fell into a hole filled with snakes and bones and cellular phones and I waited, but no one came and I decided to stay Make it my home and I've been here for days What have you been up to? What have you been doing? Food is scarce and I don't care about taste Bugs and worms and dead leaves on my plate I see the sun shine in I hear the birds singing my name, they said What have you been up to? What have you been doing? I've just been here sitting down, kicking dirt around In the distance I hear a noise Swear to hell it sounds like your voice I fell into a hole filled with snakes and bones and cellular phones and I waited, but no one came and I decided to stay Make it my home and I've been here for days

Yeah we talked for an hour and a half about the girl in the skin tight pants and that's that and that's what, that's what I like to do Spend all my time just thinkin of facts that are useless to me but are useful to you and that's that, that's what I like to do And my head has melted like the glue All the glue that kept me stuck to you Took a nap on the railroad track, but then I thought "This is dumb, these rocks hurt my back" and that's that, that's what I like to do Build a fort in the old oak tree, covered with leaves so no one could see me, that's that, that's what I like to do And my head has melted like the glue All the glue that kept me stuck to you And my head has And my heart has And my arms and my legs and I have I have melted like the glue

When you settle down please think of me I'll be at your door waiting patiently The times we had they were all so fun I was a boy and you were the one You never got to hear what I wanted to say The day your father moved your family away I chased the car and I shouted for you Until it turned and drove out of view I sent you letters, everyday for a month We made a promise, we'd keep in touch Never heard a word, never heard a word So I just assumed you were doing good When you settle down please think of me I'll be at your door waiting patiently The times we had they were all so fun I was a boy and you were the one Things were kinda hard for a year or two I'd walk past your house on my way to school Look at the grass then up to the porch Imagining that you'd open the door I sent you letters, everyday for a month We made a promise, we'd keep in touch Never heard a word, never heard a word So I just assumed you were doing good I nearly laughed when I heard that you were back I told my friends I'd marry you And when we met, you introduced me to your kids, your man, and you said "It's good to see that you remember me, after all these years that I've been gone" That's when I said "Oh, how could I forget, you were the neighbor down the block"

You say you keep your heart in your hands Well then keep it there and I can only hurt you when you spread your fingers thin Gotta maintain a little control over what you think you know Gotta maintain a little control Any love that's worth its weight in gold is worth the wait Even though my cover's been blown and I've worn my welcome thin I can tell your feelings for me, well, they haven't really changed Gotta maintain a little control over what you think you know Gotta maintain a little control Any love that's worth its weight in gold is worth the wait It's been hard enough keeping it under the ceiling I don't care that much about what they're saying It's been long enough These walls are caving in and if this house stays up It'll be worth the waiting Gotta maintain a little control over what you think you know Gotta maintain a little control Any love that's worth its weight in gold is worth the wait

Met a girl who made me want to throw in all my hopes in to the sea Close my eyes and wish that when they open she'd be standing right next to me Cuz I've been down this road before and I always get lost in the foreign feeling Cuz I've been standing on the shore just waiting for the waves to form and take me, take me Run to town to tell my friends I'm anxious my defenses have abandoned me Just this once please let it fuckin happen Let me be charming, act naturally Cuz I've been down this road before and I always get lost in the foreign feeling Cuz I've been standing on the shore just waiting for the waves to form and take me Take me away from here

I can't lie again, I confess, I've been drinking I'm in love with it cuz I'm a mess and it makes me feel less sad than I really am I've fallen flat on my face and I've been eating gravel and glass but my hands are bandaged neatly, so, I'll carry on Who am I to think that habits fade if the past predicts the future like they say Who am I to think that I could live without a little poison in my head The sun on my skin let's me know the world's still spinning If I could spin with it, I could live a billion years this way and it'd make no sense Who am I to think that habits fade if the past predicts the future like they say Who am I to think that I could live without a little poison in my head

about

"Sacramento's SARN has an ace debut EP..."
- diymag.com

"The EP is a poignant introduction to SARN's music universe. It’s a refreshing reflection on the song writing trade to see that lyrics are the foundation of his music. This happens less than you think. But perhaps this allows SARN to break free from the scrutiny many artists place their finished songs under, and instead allows the essence and message of the music to thrive. Imperfections are fine and part of the deal, and that’s good. But don’t get me wrong, when you listen to the production, careful consideration has gone into its execution, it's just not over-thought."
