Back in Town 02:42
I pick up pills but nothing ever kicks in Tylenol, you tuck me in, and I've been skipping work again I've been waiting for the day when I can call up all the old boys back in town I'm getting bored I'm all alone, I'm all alone I pick up girls but nothing ever happens Where you going, how've you been, well I've been skipping calls again I've been waiting for the night when I can paint the walls with light, come back to town I'm getting bored here All alone, I'm all alone I pick up dirt but nothing ever sinks in Lick a finger, wipe my chin I've been skipping home again I've been searching for a shower hot enough to peel some skin I'm back in town I'm getting bored I'm all alone, I'm all alone

Mandy 03:20
Ride right through the night ride right through and let it take you fly right through the night fly right through and let it take you You were my only friend You were my only friend You were my only friend You were my only friend Running out of your house into the night running into the empty streets we sang we feared that we could hardly stand Coming up from the dark I hear your laugh Coming up from the underground I see your face and I can hardly stand Will you release me

Wild Indigo 03:45
From off in the valley you call me Your glowering's really aglow They tell me that you'll never flower but they don't know, they don't know But I can make you feel better, monster I can make it all good I can make you feel better, monster and you can make me, you can make me I've won you, I'll hold you like no one else can The gate's closed to those who won't see Your ache is a white flare against the night Be with me, be with me But I can make you feel better, monster I can make it all good I can make you feel better, monster and you can make me, you can make me

You were never mine, no, you were never mine Never, none of the time You were never mine, no, no, no I can stake a claim I can raise your name (but I forget that you were born to copulate) I can stake a claim You were never mine, no, you were never mine Never, none of the time You were never mine, no, no, no Little girls afraid You've got them on the trail You make them feel (a thing they can't articulate) Little girls afraid You were never mine, no, you were never mine Never, none of the time You were never mine, no, no, no You can wear your shades You can make a babe But I know that you were born to devastate You were never mine, no, you were never mine Never, none of the time You were never mine, no, no, no

Appetites appalling Under radars shade depletes Yellowed gray and weakened knees We don't make roses anymore I'm sick and torn and tender I can't remember when I last bloomed We don't make roses anymore The nice thing about everything is that nothing really matters

Molly 02:39
I feel sorry for the dog in the street I feel sorry for you marrying me I think you should use me put me in the corner put a coat on me Oh Molly do you love me Molly will you love me Molly will you love me every single time you're with them now with them now with them now I was the flower of the mountain I was the flower of the mountain I was the flower of the mountain I said Yes Yes Yes Yes

about

the first love song we ever wrote was to a flower but who are we kidding every song is a love song. between intermittent weeping and checking our sense of smell we wrote songs on a kayak flotilla, read Ulysses to each other in screen boxes, gifted each other lilacs and lemon soap, drummed in the back yard and chopped wood while spiders fell from the oak canopy.

LOOSE is a document of where we were before we are where we are now, demos, an exercise in rawness, songs in their natural environ, a sign of what's to come, a recording experiment, a great excuse to spend a weekend hanging out with Neal and Chafe.

We love you. We hope you enjoy our LOOSE.
