Release-Lyrics by Emily Zuzik
You once said that you were naked in a city where they worship what you wear.
And all your memories are fading as you watch them disappear into thin air.
Give it time (3x) boy
Give it time to leave it all behind
Give it time to let your spirits rise.
Cuz tonight, we can start the fire. We can climb up to the roof and watch it burn.
Not everybody is invited, but not everyone is my concern.
You have a hard time with the changes you say you’re seeing in this town.
But I know it’s gonna pass, believe me. We’ll be the strong ones still hangin’ round.
Give it time (3x) boy
Give it time to leave it all behind
Give it time to let your spirits rise.
Cuz tonight, we can start the fire. We can climb up to the roof and watch it burn.
Not everybody is invited, but not everyone is my concern.

Flesh and Bone/Midnight Dancing-Lyrics by Emily Zuzik
Running high, arms out wide, escape and ride the light.
Faster drive, feel so alive, city in the rearview.
Pull me closer if you dare. I don’t want anyone but you.
Midnight Dancing, sweat like the humid night air
Midnight Dancing, we could be anywhere
Midnight Dancing, and we’ll disappear.
Off we hide, feel the tide roll in
Only frightening if you let it get to you
Kind of exciting, the night is ours. Ours and ours alone. And you’re here with me.
Midnight Dancing, sweat like the humid night air
Midnight Dancing, we could be anywhere
Midnight Dancing, and we’ll disappear.
Into one heart
Into one heart
Into one heart
Flesh and bone/together on our own (I’m still searching)
Flesh and bone, I can’t find you, together on our own (I’m still searching)

So Used to Heartbreak –lyrics by Josh Ricchio
Who put you in this position?
There’s just so much we don’t know.
I’ll let you make the first incision
It just seems the way to go.
So won’t you follow closely, follow closer to me
won’t you follow closely, follow closer to me
So Used to Heartbreak
I just wanna die in your arms tonight
So Used to Heartbreak
I need an alibi just to stay alive.
So inconsequential with your heartbreak
You think you know
But I say you don’t
Cuz we know you better.
I can see your ghosts
They wanna love you the most
And now, you’ll never be deader.
So won’t you follow closely, follow closer to me
I can see you dancing with the devil to the rhythm of the night
I can see you driving under the moonlight
Don’t stop, we’re gonna drive all night
So Used to Heartbreak
I just wanna die in your arms tonight
So Used to Heartbreak
I need an alibi just to stay alive.
So inconsequential with your heartbreak
Can’t we just stay a while?
No don’t go hiding from your heart.

Let Go-lyrics by Emily Zuzik
Review the lines, read all the passage, how the words combine can lead you to happiness
I know, spirit in the skies told me so
Yeah, I know, spirit in the skies told me so
Follow the lines, follow the passages, watch it combine, lead you to happiness
I know, spirit in the skies told me so
Yeah, I know, and all I had to do was let go…

Something Sweet-lyrics by Emily Zuzik
September evening was platform gazing. Sweat running down. Waiting for the break. Nothing seems to help this. No air to breathe then… the thunder.
Let the rain fall down on you
Let the rain fall down on me
Let the rain fall down on us together
Like the heat on something sweet
Rolling off my head like tears down my cheek a moment of release.
A smile and a laugh like we’d known all along. Like we planned it. Like we were destined.
Like the train stopped moving and this moment would last forever.
Let the rain fall down on you
Let the rain fall down on me
Let the rain fall down on us together
Like the heat on something sweet
Down…
Let the rain fall down on you
Let the rain fall down on me
Let the rain fall down on us together
Like the heat on something sweet

Upside Down – Lyrics Emily Zuzik and Josh Ricchio
Don’t know when to end or where to begin when you’re upside down, all around, the same end to end.
Don’t know how to sink, can’t say when to swim the only sound can come from within.
Up in the middle of the night again, chasing regrets from the past again
Thinking ‘bout all those things and just feeling so bad
Each time I turn away was another way I was frozen
But I play it off like a warrior.
Don’t know when to end or where to begin when you’re upside down, all around, the same end to end.
Don’t know how to sink, can’t say when to swim the only sound can come from within.
These choices keep catching up with me. I don’t think you’d want to stay next to me.
I keep moving to distract myself from the reason that’s right there.
So I hope you’ll forgive me if I don’t always seem happy
I’m trying to change the story that will get me there.
Don’t know when to end or where to begin when you’re upside down, all around, the same end to end.
Don’t know how to sink, can’t say when to swim the only sound can come from within.
Celebrate if it feels all right…

1am-lyrics by Emily Zuzik
1 am, 1 am, I see you called at 1 am…
I see you called at 1 am. I knew better not to take it.
That familiar rush again. Not too sure if I’ll make it.
Feels so good going down, leaves me hanging in the morning.
I want to listen to your every sound, throw away the warning.
I see you called at 1 am. They say bad news comes at night.
But I’m done with that storyline even when I see the light.
But you always make it hard to walk away completely
I can’t take these little lies, can’t commit so freely…
Can’t commit so freely…
I see you called at 1 am…
When will you stop with your chaos?
Maybe I need to block your calls now to keep from getting so lost.
I see you called at 1 am.
Lingering conversations
Cigarettes by street light lines, mental examinations
Fleeting moments in the night, followed by silent weekdays
Nothing that will make it right, only filled with bleak days
I see you called at 1 am, this doesn’t make things easy.
I see you called at 1 am, this doesn’t make things easy.
I see you called at 1 am,
I see you called at 1 am, this doesn’t make things easy.

The Kill-lyrics by Emily Zuzik
Eyes, fire, soot and black from ask, skin burned red and hard like stone.
Heart broken and pulled back again, you don’t get how much I know.
You don’t get how much I know
You don’t get how much I know.
You’re just running, jaguar on the plains
Nothing like those tigers racing past again
Running to the Kill.
Staying on your own, hunter of the beast who you claim haunts you.
I’ll just watch it go, I’ll just watch you go by.
Watch you go by.
You’re just running, jaguar on the plains
Nothing like those tigers racing past again
Running to the Kill.
You’re just running, jaguar on the plains
Nothing like those tigers racing packs again
Running to the Kill.
You’re just running, jaguar on the plains
Nothing like those tigers racing packs again
Running to the Kill.

Nova-lyrics by Emily Zuzik
Hiding out in garish costume
Turning dials that led the way
Didn’t want to steal the center
But always took their breath away.
Someone said I should be wary
You always had more than you need
But I was chasing after glory
It never mattered if we bleed.
never mattered if we bleed
But you made the sun warm the sound
You put all the naysayers down
You broke away where all was new
You gave your soul. I gave mine too.
Genius comes in every taste
Haste makes waste
Someone else will take the praise
And he earned the glitter phase
Hand in hand you could write the book
Hoist the flag, shake the scene, made you look.
Because you always plant the seed
It never mattered if we bleed.

The Lone-lyrics by Emily Zuzik
Hills rise up ahead, the clouds erase the view,
a winding road leads on. I wonder if I’ll get to you.
It’s not a matter if we can’t. It’s not a challenge if we don’t.
I have my doubts and all this noise makes me think we won’t.
The Lone ride on to a solitary beat.
A drum fuels the fire every time we meet.
If there’s a method to all that’s mad, I’ll bet were laughing in the end.
And hopefully on the side that’s smiling at the stars again…
The Lone ride on to a solitary beat.
A drum fuels the fire every time we meet.
Feel the flame, fuel the fire.
The Lone ride on to a solitary beat.
A drum fuels the fire every time we meet.
The Lone ride on to a solitary beat.
A drum fuels the fire every time we meet.

I love this EP. It's got such a chilled feel that draws on the computer game music from my youth. I often zone out into a nostalgic daydream while listening to it.
