Failures 00:51
When everyone you know has changed You're trying to make it through each day Rolling around not getting enough sleep I'm stuck in my same way

Thin Ice 03:14
You assumed you were a crowd favorite You thought that all of the talk was about you Its pins and needles hearing your voice But what choice do I have? When you talk it's just a wave of words A wave of useless words I want you to feel what I feel But you're too wrapped up to see the signs If I don't get my hopes up you can't let me down Stand down and do whatever you say This is your name I don't get a say You want it when you want it It's never on my terms I wait around for you to make a sound But all of the talks about your own selfish concerns. You're so full of your goddamn self That you don't see how arrogant you sound I want you to feel what I feel But you're too wrapped up to see the signs If I don't get my hopes up you can't let me down

Slow 03:53
Time my biggest enemy No matter what it always seems to get ahead of me Looking into the future I am scared The most scared I've been in a long time What am I going to do with my life? I haven't begun to figure it out And all my friends are leaving me in the dust I'm seeing everyone I know grow and move on with their lives And I feel like I'm stuck in the same place And most of the time I feel like I'm doing something wrong with my life I don't know Maybe I'm just slow Quit my job because I couldn't get paid Just dicked around every single goddamn day And what do i have to show for all the time i spent fucking miserable? Sleeping through the day working all night long and I'm seeing everyone I know grow and move on with their lives And I feel like I'm stuck in the same place And most of the time I feel like I'm doing something wrong with my life I don't know Maybe I'm just slow And everything that i used to know Seems so far gone now and it's left a hole I'll try my best to forget and move on Because everything can't be so miserable (What am I going to do with my life? I haven't begun to figure it out And what do i have to show for all the time i spent fucking miserable?)

Tear the skin from my bones I don't need it anymore It just makes me uncomfortable and well maybe If it wasn't there then I'd be fine Tear the skin from my face and neck well I don't need it anymore It just makes me uncomfortable and well baby If you weren't there maybe id be fine You sleep so far away Tonight When you're right in my bed In my Mind I should have known I've seen this a million times before Now you'll never talk to me again Tried too hard was too nice let all the stupid mistakes slide Now we've grown so far apart Rip this rotting piece of matter from my skull It don't work for me no more If it did then I wouldn't be in all this trouble that I'm in I could be getting something done Instead of falling in love with every pretty girl that smiles back at me And end up having to ask Who was in your bed Last night I should have known I've seen this a million times before Now you'll never talk to me again Tried too hard was too nice let all the stupid mistakes slide Now we've grown so far apart

Strung Out 02:27
I'm spreading myself too thin Between the all day shits and Late night trips I just can't take it anymore I've got to get out of here Before I lose myself To who the world wants me to be Somewhere at the bottom of the glass Lies the remnants of who I used to be Sick and tired of all this time thats feeling wasted In this dead end job where each days the same Trying not to lose myself To who the world wants me to be Somewhere at the bottom of the glass Lies the remnants of who I used to be Of who I used to be I'm just looking for some substance Some hope some change to help me make it through each day And I'm just looking for some substance Some ray of light to help me hold on to my sanity I've got to get out of here Before I lose myself To who the world wants me to be Somewhere at the bottom of the glass Lies the remnants of who I used to be Of who I used to be And I'm just looking for some substance Some hope some change to help me make it through each day

A Demon sleeps here in this house And I've been waking him up Asking for trouble Picking fights I don't need to win Stirring up past memories That don't matter much anymore I've been living behind closed doors for too long Using any distraction to fill my time I've been lost for so long Now I'm coming back around It's time to do something with myself before I end up An old man full of regret I've been telling lies to myself for so long So I can sit inside all day and night And not feel bad When I ask myself "Is this all I really need to make it through life happy?" I've been living behind closed doors for too long Using any distraction to fill my time I've been lost for so long Now I'm coming back around It's time to do something with myself before I end up An old man full of regret Is there a way To keep this Demon at bay For the rest of my life? I'll Find a way To keep this Demon at bay For the rest of my life.

First off, Thank you for taking the time to check us out!
This is it our first release, we hope you dig it as much as we do.

All songs written and performed by As We Age.
All tracking and mixing was done at The Recording Company in
Esperance, NY by Tim Lynch and assistant sound engineers
Chris Maloy and Rick Sullivan.
Mastered by Alan Douches at West West Side Music.

Thank you to Ian, Mike, and Nick P's families for letting us use their houses for practice, thanks to Nick Lessons dad and the guys at C&B Customs for letting us use the basement, a HUGE thanks to Tim for all the time he spent working with us, being patient while we figured out how we wanted to do things, feeding us, giving us somewhere to crash while we wrote and recorded, and just being an all around great guy to work with, and finally thanks again to any of you that take time to listen to this album or read the lyrics or download/pay for what we worked so hard on.
It means the world to us.
