I was almost down to no bands a little bit after the first EP so I decided to turn Wayfarer into a full project. For this EP I played all the instruments as it was going to be used to assemble a band. The first batch of shows we had basically a rotating line-up with the exception of Steve and I. It was the first time I had done something like that and looking back it was a lot of fun. The first 5-6 shows the songs were played a little bit differently every time as there were usually two new members hearing it and playing it their own way.
As sloppy as this EP is, I'm still pretty proud of most of it.
Again, this song was taken from the first EP. I remember playing this song once at a house show in London with what would be the line-up for sometime to come. We were playing with a bunch of great bands and everything about our set went exactly how I had hoped and this song in particular stuck out for me. After a run of playing in bands that were frustrating and musically not what I wanted to do, this was my kick back into getting stoked on music again.
lyrics
This could be the end
We may be bleeding but we’re still breathing
And this could be the end
Where you stare at your feet, swab the blood from your knees wondering why
Everything has changed
It’s the world that’s in bloom and there’s nothing kid, nothing left, for you to latch onto
Time to get tough it was long overdue
I’m done waiting
For the world to come to
This could be the end
Of our old hearts so heavy and bitter
And this could be the end
Where our eyes feel a little bit lighter
You can’t grow up in vein
Watch the snow falling into the palm of your hand
Wondering why you’ve never seen
All the intricacies and content you can finally sing
