This acoustic demo version of Hacksaw was recorded during a night of boredom by Todd and Thomas with Garageband and a Macbook Pro. The full band version will appear on our full-length LP coming soon, but for now enjoy it as a bonus track!
lyrics
What’s the cure
for futility,
the human condition,
the nonstop need to need?
And why can’t I
define satisfied?
Why’s it always the pursuit of more
that navigates my life?
We all aspire
to the brilliant stars,
But this world is the ball on the chain
weighing down our hearts.
I want to take my foot off with a hack saw.
I’m so tired of drifting afloat
on this brittle raft made of scrap wood
that we call “Hope.”
‘Cause we can't survive
on pacifying, Prozac-laced salt water
when we thirst for fine wine, so…
My body is my cross to bear.
It can't attain desire's reach.
My only chance to catch the stars
is the hack saw.
