Coffee & Nicotine

Coffee and nicotine
Wide eyed and dramamined
Young man on the big sea
His head in horizons
His heart wanted everything
But couldn’t put down his drink
No matter what you think
He’s no less of a man
He never could keep his promise
He never made it to shore
Drowning all his sorrows at the bar down on the corner
He had his friends and family
But couldn’t keep them close
He never got his moment
Whiskey and ketamine
The ocean runs through his dreams
OId man on a bar seat
A hand on his bottle
His eyes have seen everything
Wrinkled and dull with shame
Erasing the mistakes
And the sins that he’s made
He never could keep his promise
He never made it to shore
Drowning all his sorrows at the bar down on the corner
He had his friends and family
But couldn’t keep them close
He never got his moment
He never could keep his promise
He never made it to shore
Drowning all his sorrows at the bar down on the corner
He had his friends and family
But couldn’t keep them close
He never got his moment

Find A Reason

I gotta find a reason
To leave my bed
'Cuz living without meaning
Got me on edge
I gotta find a moment
To change my life
'Cuz lately it's meant nothing
I'm unsatisfied
Everybody's chasing something
What's the function
Putting all this pressure on my self
But I can't stop
When will I stop
Fishing for pity man, you're freaking people out
Still I can't find a reason
Motivation
In my mind
And I keep trying to feel less blue
In the morning
I'll be fine
I gotta get a job, man!
To pay my rent
I got some problems
With the way I spend
Try to catch you on the weekend
I'm shooting you a text
But you went and did me dirty
Leaving me on read
Everybody's chasing something
What's the function
Putting all this pressure on myself
But I can't stop
When will I stop
Fishing for pity man you're freaking people out
Still I can't find a reason
Motivation
In my mind
And I keep trying to feel less blue
In the morning
I'll be fine
I feel like a bummer and I'm tryna get my shit together
I get lower than some limbo at a wedding no one went to
I can't stand the way I'm thinking, where am I supposed to fit in
Tomorrow it'll be alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Tomorrow it'll be alright
Alright
Alright

In the summer we were getting on
Yeah we had some fun when I brought you to the beach
Making love with every chance we got
Yeah we’d sneak around never would get caught
Didn’t know I wanted you so much
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
It’s alright
I don’t feel the need to act like other guys
I know you’re mine
It’s just this feeling
Then the winter came and now I knew
That I felt us change and you felt it too
Conversations ‘bout our future’s proof
What we meant and said would it work for two
Didn’t know the cold could be so cruel
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
It’s alright
I don’t feel the need to waste both of our time
I know it’s right
And I can take it
I can take it
The time
To feel something that makes sense in my mind
Now a friend
Out of sight
And that’s fine
It’s alright
I don’t feel the need to waste both of our time
I know it’s right and I can take it
I can take it
I can take it
I can take it
I can take it
I can take it
I can take it

Town

It’s Wednesday night I’m going out
You called to say you’re back in town
I know the place you know I’m down
Just tell me when to come around
Oh no
Here we go again
Got everything I ever wanted
I feel my fortune in the wind
And then you say I’m just a friend
I know the bouncer cut the line
This place is crazy for a dive
I grab a drink and chicken friend
I see your face it’s grinning wide
Oh no
Here we go again
Got everything I ever wanted
I feel my fortune in the wind
And then you say I’m just a friend
Can I take you home tonight
Pick it up like every other time
Now you’re pulling me aside
Telling me I’m not the first in line
Intoxicated
Was it just my state of mind
The way I played it
Faking that I’m back in love
I know you’re not
Trying to push me away
I think you’re just
Tired of playing games
I know you’re not
Trying to push me away
I think you’re just
Tired of playing games
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again

Blackout

Oh baby it’s dark out
May as well pull the curtains down
Can’t deny me that it felt so good
And now you tell me that I think we should
Take another minute to map out
All the little things that brought us here
You’re the only thing that I loved this year
And now we’re done damn it you made that clear
And I ain’t been myself in a minute
I told you that day one
Love can get hard when you’re in it
But harder when you’re gone
I’ll be better when I finally move on
I’ll move on
It’s true
I’m trying to forget
Everything we did and everything we said
It’s true
I’m giving myself a chance
To break it off
To break it off
It wasn’t fair how
I said I love you when I doubt myself
Never quite sure what the future’s holding
Put myself down every single morning
Now I gotta reason to black out
Every single way you made me better
But now I’m being better just for myself
And now I get the feeling I’m someone else
And I ain’t been myself in a minute
I told you that day one
Love can get hard when you’re in it
But harder when you’re gone
I’ll be better when I finally move on
I’ll move on
It’s true
I’m trying to forget
Everything we did and everything we said
It’s true
I’m giving myself a chance
To break it off
To break it off
I’m tired of being in my mind
Mind mind
Feels like it happens all the time
Time
I’m tired of being in my mind
Mind mind
Feels like it happens all the time

Bristol Mines Ottawa, Ontario
Burke and Isaac are undoubtedly different, from personality, to music taste, to age. Burke and Isaac were studying audio engineering together and is a product of these differences. Blending electric/acoustic guitars, layered vocals, acoustic drums and synth bass, they produce a sound that can be compared to the likes of Hollerado, The Killers, Taking Back Sunday, Built To Spill, and Kings Of Leon. ... more
