All my friends
All my friends are cryin'
We wanna live but we're too afraid to try it
In this world it's a fight or flight perception
Apprehension
A spiritual depression
Contemplating life
The "whats" and the "whys"
Powers up above and their superficial lies
Superficial lives
Led by the people who don't know what's it like
To not have that which makes you feel alive
Makes you wanna fly
Existential dread and the death of all that's died
We can have it now, but I'm quick to let it slide
That's what all my friends and I are too afraid to try
Justifying life
The highs and the lows
Tearing open sides that we're too afraid to show
Self destructive souls
Held by the people who know just what it's like
To not have that which makes you feel alive
Makes you wanna fly
Existential dread and the death of all that's died
We can have it now, but I'm quick to let it slide
That's what all my friends and I are too afraid to try
All my friends
All my friends are cryin'
We wanna live but we're too afraid to try it
In this world it's a fight or flight perception
Apprehension
A spiritual depression

Summer eyes glisten in the sun
But they bear no color when the blinds are drawn
Auburn hair never looked so blue
That's why I'm willing to fade for you
There are colors we can never perceive
Our eyes are limited and our mind's not free
Its time to kill these raging thoughts in your head
Let go
And feel instead
Shades of your color are all I see
Black is what your love has become for me.
I flirted with destruction
Put myself through Hell
A ballet of loneliness, and I danced well
You showed me colors that I never knew
But I'd rather bleed them all than lose you too
Shades of your color are all I see
Black is what your love has become for me
Fade into senses beyond my reach
Bathe in the colors you made me bleed
These wounds don't hurt
They're all but skin that soon will fade
Just as our colors did

Don't take that drive
It's an hour away to you
But to us, its the rest of our lives
Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains
We love you, don't change
The keys to your car
Are not the same that will unlock the chains that hold you down
Scream it out, and tear away
You are not bound to what you are today
Don't change

the sunflower burial recommends:
When it comes to pure energy and punk-inspired rage, there are few artists that capture that feeling as well as Dogleg. This album is fast, hard-hitting, and unashamedly honest with its content.

From Mat's dynamic vocals, to the layered guitars bathing in reverb and tight distortion, and the catchy, and sometimes melancholy yet beautiful hooks, this is an all around incredible record.

Teens Of Denial
by Car Seat Headrest
This band has never been one to function within boundaries. From Will's greatly unique style of singing/writing, and the many influences of this record, there's no denying this album's authenticity.
