    This t-shirt is in memory of our dear bird friend, Twitchy. Here is his story:

    Clearing suffering from blindness in one eye, Twitchy's blurry vision led him to take a turn right into Dylan's window. He heard the noise and went out to investigate, only to find a bird that was just standing there by our tree. He was completely stunned and just stood there twitching (hence the name), even Dylan's dog, Belle, thought he was dead. But then his head started moving! He was moving his wings again so Dylan decided to pick him up and give him a lift. Sadly, he wasn't ready and fell to the ground leaving Belle to pounce on him. He got away in time, however, he ended up hitting Dylan's neighbor's window and plummeting to his inevitable death.

    "All Your Friends" Lyrics

    Maybe I'm lazy
    Maybe I'm bored
    But you look better
    Than before
    We met
    And I keep getting criticized
    For wanting to make more
    Than just amends
    Push them off your back
    Tell me all your stories
    And all those bitter ends
    Take time and listen up
    Before you start
    Making all the bends

    Don't leave just yet
    'Cause it's not over
    'TIL THE BITTER END
    And I'm not trying to be more
    Than all your friends

    Maybe I was tired
    Checking up on you
    In a dream
    Your dry eyes
    Those bad times
    Confronted me

    Now I see
    What I'm supposed to know
    Even though
    You passed me by
    About a month or so ago
    You couldn't take all your dreams
    Shut down by realities
    And I'm still ready to go

    Go!

    Don't leave just yet
    'Cause it's not over
    'TIL THE BITTER END
    And I'm not trying to be more
    Than all your friends

Fighting for more to space Working out subtle ways Broader moving forward Don't forget the ones you say Got you here for a brighter today Lies run out someday Find another way Exploring a different space You are, we are Infinite Infinite Lighting the dark of day Calling for electric embrace To feel things I've never felt before Blood surging through my veins The heart on my shoulder leads the way Lies run out someday Find another way Exploring a different space You are, we are Infinite Infinite Infinite Infinite

I've been down For way too long now Burning bridges To feel stronger. I have learned From selfish ways Comebacks, regrets Fair shares of bad days Breaking loose ties Working for the sunrise Opening my mind Shutting doors behind Won't look back Can't look back For fear of losing ground I've been down For way too long now Crossing bridges Getting stronger Breaking loose ties Working for the sunrise Opening my mind Shutting doors behind Won't look back Can't look back For fear of losing ground

I wish you could see the lights tonight I wish you could see the lights tonight But I've shut out every part of meaning  I've pushed myself away But I've shut out every part of meaning  I've pushed myself away Go on (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) It's so hard to justify Go on (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) So hard to justify You wish I could feel the breeze tonight  You wish I could feel the breeze tonight But youve shut down any sense of feeling Now you know Youve pushed yourself away Go on (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) It's so hard to justify Go on (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) So hard to justify If we stay here now  Will your tears wash out Will they run down clear When you justify If we stay here now Will our pain slow down Will it turn to black  When we close our eyes If we stay here now  Will your tears wash out Will they run down clear When you justify If we stay here now Will our pain slow down Will it turn to black  When we close our eyes Go on (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) It's so hard to justify Go on (oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) So hard to justify

about

You're probably wondering why we chose a bird as our cover art for our first EP. Or you're not, but I'll tell the story anyway. That bird's name was Twitchy and he had quite possibly the saddest a life a bird could ever have. Clearing suffering from blindness in one eye, his blurry vision led him to take a turn right into Dylan's window. He heard the noise and went out to investigate, only to find a bird that was just standing there by our tree. He was completely stunned and just stood there twitching (hence the name), even Dylan's dog, Belle, thought he was dead. But then his head started moving! He was moving his wings again so Dylan decided to pick him up and give him a lift. Sadly, he wasn't ready and fell to the ground leaving Belle to pounce on him. He got away in time, however, he ended up hitting Dylan's neighbor's window and plummeting to his inevitable death. That is the story of the saddest bird to ever live.

R.I.P Twitchy

This is our very first EP, which includes some of the first songs we've ever written! We really hope you enjoy, download, and share!
