The world ain't your playground !

This is a protest song. It speaks for itself. Someone. Those who stand around him. And those in my own country who bend the knee. That's all I need to say.

You need me. You just don't

Sometimes it's someone you loved. Sometimes it's family. Sometimes it's someone asking for your vote. Different relationships. Same contradiction. We want people when we need something from them, then somehow forget what they meant when we don't. Maybe that's personal. Maybe that's political. Maybe that's just the world we've built. You need me. You just don't value me.

Old Enough to Know Better

And this isn't really a "I'm heartbroken and everything is terrible" kind of love song. She's not fifteen anymore. She's old enough to know better, and she genuinely wants to be happy for someone she cares about. The problem is, apparently she didn't grow up quite as much as she thought. So she sits there wondering what you're even supposed to watch on Netflix at a time like this, gives up on that, picks up her guitar and lets her fingers go wherever they want. Somehow, it comes out punk. A slightly self-deprecating love song about being old enough to handle your feelings — and discovering that you're still not particularly good at it.

So that's all you are.

This song came from a small frustration in my own life. Just one of those moments when you suddenly realize someone isn't who you thought they were.

Nice Guy, not the One

A pop-punk love song from the perspective of a childhood friend. And somehow, he's always the guy who hears: "You're a great guy, but..."

Some stories aren’t about falling in love. They’re about realizing you’ve been standing next to it for years.

Under the Awning

Just a small talk song about an out-of-season rainstorm, wet sidewalks, passing cars, and the strange calm that shows up after the rain finally starts letting go.

I Live in Now

This song started after hearing a bunch of drunk guys at a bar talking about how “Led Zeppelin was the peak of music” and how everything after the ‘70s went downhill. Without older generations of music, none of today’s music would exist.

In Between

A song about the spaces people fall into when life stops feeling right. Not about careless cheating, not about dramatic confession — but about warmth found at the wrong time, and the quiet damage that follows.

A little Interlude

Donald John Trump said: “Despite a little interlude with Iran, that lovely country, lovely place, we’re doing better than ever before.” If you want your name remembered in history, do nothing more.

on March 28

This song is dedicated to the No Kings rallies on March 28. We were inspired by the message shared by the No Kings movement: Their call speaks about fear, rising costs, civil rights, and the belief that power belongs to the people — not to those who try to rule like kings.

Half Of It Was Jealousy

Some feelings never become love,but they still leave a small mark. This song is about hearing unexpected news,answering a little colder than intended,and realizing later that maybe half of it was jealousy.
