Province Sessions – Demo 1

I’ve decided to post a series of five demos that were from early 2010.

These are songs that didn’t make it on to the new CD. They’re rough, and in most cases, unedited recordings of ideas that from a two-day practice that came to be known as the Province Session.

I’ll explain more about the title later. Thanks for listening. Troy

i got nothing from you all night
your sentences

weren’t what they seemed
and your stories they were
paranoid, at best
they’re only
half redeemed
every quote from me had
never happened,
words that i had never said
always underneath the guise
of listening,
sitting straight
in my bed
they wanted us out, it was
easy enough
we’d draw up a plan
that they’d regret
but terrible things
are to come of the things
we choose to forget
i got nothing from you all night
your sentences
weren’t what they seemed
and your stories they were
paranoid, at best
they’re only
half redeemed
you and the door
it’s the latest escape
from all of this regret
but terrible things
they come
but i can’t forget

i got nothing from you all night

your sentences

weren’t what they seemed

and your stories they were

paranoid, at best

they’re only

half redeemed

every quote from me had

never happened,

words that i had never said

always underneath the guise

of listening,

sitting straight

in my bed

they wanted us out, it was

easy enough

we’d draw up a plan

they’d regret

but terrible things

are to come of the things

that we choose to forget

oooohh, oohh

i got nothing from you all night

your sentences

weren’t what they seemed

and your stories they were

paranoid, at best

were only

half redeemed

you and the door

it’s the latest escape

of a constant regret

but terrible things

are to come of these things

they just haven’t

come yet
