We are sitting here With the masters of our league They're living with the stage fright Closed up in boxes And it's been called upon us To fight for what we hide You've really had me going there for a while In the deepest forest She'll come to me and say What do we have here? On this ordinary day It's just an ordinary day Oh, you've really had me going there for a while Thinking I knew who you knew It's just that degree of separation that keeps me from where I wanna go

Similarities 03:24
All my life I've been a customer To your heart Making ends meet Bottled up Anger in my heart Never reaches you Single Out Similarities Oh there's nothing wrong No, there's nothing wrong Hum a tune In a salty mood? Listen to a groove Listen to a groove Fall into a groove
3.
I'll be home soon Despite what was written And I'll stop your worries in an instant Survive what was reckoned These are wasted lives Nothing good You've been fighting in a war aint worth your trouble And your future's spoken to I've been sleeping in the ocean I've been dreaming of your tea I emerge to find your waves disrupted The sea all high tide I breathe your life a new perspective To mend your weak condition All these brutal tears Gone for good The picture in my mind has gained it's color That once had seemed un-hued.

Westmoreland 04:24
I will find the road that calls to us In your very essence you know that the hardest part is done All arise in awe of all that loves When your taste seems bitter, we'll meet to rejuvenate the sweet Inside, out of sight Is the center Why must we go so far with running jokes? Like a dried up standup routine It's unclear to me, you know
5.
Scarlet The smoothest thing about you lies Deep inside your pocket watch Feel it while it fades away Amber Mountains by a starry road You're just about to lose control Feel it while it fades away but It feels like there is nothing left to do but Indulge, indulge More and more and more and more We all know what's coming next I read your lips all painted red I'll paint you red I'll paint you red Suppose in your confidence All jokes aside, we multiplied And painted red We'll paint you red Simple obligations keep up occupied Simple obligations, you don't ask why
6.
She's waiting for an answer While buzzards go wild But after she dwells on the moment for longer Her need for solution subsides Regards to what you've asked me I'll never reply So no more commotion Just keep your devotion Trust in my reasons, oh try Settle down You're thinking too much Settle down Cease to magnify I'm thinking of a reason To crawl back inside It's been too long a wait to get you Banking on my pride Settle Down You're asking too much Settle down Your words will leave me crying Ever try

Best Friends 02:47
How many best friends do you have? Do they make you real happy, do the make you real glad? You take em' to the grocery store to pick up some snacks But you save em' all for later when it's time to relax! If I had one hundred dollars I would Give half to you You're my favorite friend in the whole wide world! How many secrets do you know? Do you keep em' in your pocket, but never ever show? I heard a funny story that I think you should hear But I don't think I can tell ya' till the coast is clear If I had one hundred dollars I would Give half to you You're my favorite friend in the whole wide world! (things got a little heavy there) You know I won't do no harm So buddy don't be alarmed! You know we gotta stick together zoo-boo wap-ba do boww, ooh whoa So how many best friends do you have? Well, it's not too important, but I really have to ask When we're hanging out together I gotta learn what you know But when it's time to leave you know I never wanna go I bet that we'll be hanging out til' the end of the day And I can't wait till tomorrow when it's time to go and play (hooray!) If I had one hundred dollars I would Give half to you You are my best friend in the whole wide world!

about

Thank you for your patience!

Best Friends is dedicated to all of our friends and family who made this record possible. We were fortunate to record and produce this record at very minimal cost, with an enormous amount time allotted for creative freedom, both mentally and in raw hours.

As a thanks for putting up with our constant delaying of this particular release, this record is available to download immediately for free on Bandcamp. However, any purchase over 8 dollars will pre-order a physical copy of the record, with an anticipated release in September.

We sincerely hope you enjoy our debut release. Expect more to come in the upcoming months!!

-Ladyhips
