Take your rifle and shoot me two thousand times A bullet less and I will never die Never die Remember the words your mother said Aim with your heart and shoot for the head Oh the claws are sharp But I am not afraid Don't care anymore And if I'm to find a love it has to be a truly brave love Cause the bear is symbolism I'm killing the bear He's killing the bear
2.
You're a user go ahead and generate your lies You're like a kid from the lord of the flies Once I was an honest man now i know I'm gonna' burn Oh yeah We can't fight it But I need you I need you
3.
Oh, we're not the same The fire ignited us but never united us Mutation we never mutated We stayed the same and we were powerless Lets pretend I'm someone else Were not ourselves Lets pretend I'm someone else Oh, she's slipping away She's doing the dishes but some things never wash out Oh, what can i say? It so complicated and everything's broken I wish I could fix it I think i know how Lets pretend I'm someone else We're not ourselves Lets pretend I'm someone else

Castles 02:19
Tell me I can infiltrate her mind Cause I want to have her Yeah, she's too dangerous Tell me that the love she had was blind Cause I want to show her Her architecture is more than a gesture I can open the gates with no hassle She's like a castle. Her architecture is making me fester And I have to admit she can dazzle She's like a castle, yeah Oh, she's hard to control (You can't control it) The castle will devour us
5.
Arrow Boys 03:32
Momma' said if they come to town Kill them with arrows Stop Or the government will cut you down Government says it gonna' cut us down Kill them with arrows I want to fight for the land and never let it go I want to captivate the man so he can let's us go They brought gun fire to the forest But this area is ours The kids must be annihilated We try to terminate and terminate and terminate em' But they keep coming back with arrows and boys Oh, the arrows and bows, bows

about

"Although their upcoming Love and Hunting release still won't see them exploring full-length territory just yet, it nonetheless marks a big leap forward for the former drums- and piano-based duo. Aside from being the most polished tracks they've put out to date, the addition of guitarist Kyle Irion has beefed up the already frenzied clanking of the band's theatrical-rooted piano-heavy sound." - Corey Graves, CentralTrack.com

Recorded in about a month at the house of Pageantry's Roy Robertson, "Love and Hunting" is our first stab at a more deliberate, full sound. None of the energy from our earlier works has been removed, only focused. "Love and Hunting" is like Jean Grey after she learned to control Phoenix. Do you guys remember that? If you don't remember that, pretend you only imagined these last few lines. "Love and Hunting" is about love, especially love worth fighting for. It's about the self-sacrifice that love often requires. It's also about bows and arrows.
