Masquerade 03:36
Show me what is in your head and heart What you think, who you love Show me how I can become a part of What you think, who you love When in crowds I scan each face for some familiar feature Sometimes I'm so sure But it's just a stranger masquerading in your tshirt Borrowing your hair style I know when we have to end our calls Subtle changes in your tone I can't count the times that we've shared yawns Up at night on the phone When in crowds I scan each face for some familiar feature Sometimes I'm so sure But it's just a stranger masquerading in your tshirt Borrowing your hair style

Artemis, goddess of Grecian myth Bested Cupid at shooting his arrows She never missed her mark Struck in each heart a spark Of otherworldly, unending devotion But she didn't know whose heart went with whose The whole world's in love, and no one knows with whom And we don't always know how to choose Who to run away with and start anew Just like dishes and spoons You're waxing, you're waning You're smiling and then you're complaining Oh, I never know which side of you I'll see But when you laugh your smile lights up the sky I can't believe a word you say You tell me what I wanna believe And we don't always know how to choose Who to run away with and start anew Just like dishes and spoons When is the next time I'll see you You disappear just like the moon It's just one small step off of one giant cliff Here are three small words just to show you what I'm worth And we don't always know how to choose Who to run away with and start anew Just like dishes and spoons

Give your plants good reason To brave the winter season From your window sill Cause you can't just put me on a shelf And expect me to fend for myself I need you, I need food, I need light, I need love I need you But I know we'll keep each other clean Turn around and scrub the places we can't reach on our own A ship of human kindness Set adrift in a sea of violence You can change the world Or at least that's what I wanna believe After watching all this shit on TV Every day it's the same All the loss and the pain gets me down But I know we'll keep each other clean Turn around and scrub the places we can't reach on our own After our last fight I stayed up half the night You know how to hurt me But I still think you're worth fighting for Here's my middle finger, there's the door But don't go for too long or I'll write you a song Cause I love you But I know we'll keep each other clean Turn around and scrub the places we can't reach on our own

When you fall asleep Who is it that you see in your dreams Stay awake, remain here with me But I won't beg or cry I'll steal away from you Into the night, I'll fly Goodnight, goodnight I can see it's too late Is she someone that we both know well Try to keep the facts straight As we promenade the kiss and tell We'll just keep on dancing Up until the song when she cuts in We all switch out partners Just as a new song starts to begin Do I fit the part The idealistic girl who hands her heart to you No questions asked, just show me where to move And tell me why you cast her in my role She's learning all my lines Just right, just right I can see it's too late Is she someone that we both know well Try to keep the facts straight As we promenade the kiss and tell We'll just keep on dancing Up until the song when she cuts in We all switch out partners Just as a new song starts to begin

Mapmaker 05:42
When I awoke I was stranded On the shores where we landed Try as though I might, no hope was in sight Cast away and washed out on the short line Shot up desperate flares into the night air Punching holes of light into the sky but We are so much more than the sum of our parts So break my legs, my arms, and my heart I won't pretend to know what you've been through It's just been so hard to get to where we are I can see that he hurt you Bandages wrapped so tight you Just need to say what you're thinking Our plans changed when the boat sunk Marked the days on a tree trunk Why'd you have to go and leave me all alone Who will wake you up come Monday morning Who will talk you through the crazy things you do Who will hold your hand until it's over We are so much more than the sum of our parts So break my legs, my arms, and my heart I won't pretend to know what you've been through It's just been so hard to get to where we are I can see that he hurt you Bandages wrapped so tight you Just need to say what you're thinking Recreate the sky on the ceiling of your room Oh starry, starry night Spell it out for me to read In constellations clear and bright They burn for us tonight To show the way to go from here If a tree can fit into a tiny seed Then why can't you put some faith in me In everything, in everything We'll stretch our arms out towards the sun Embracing life and love and warmth In everyone, in everyone We'll act on impulse, throw out our plans Forget your parents, they'll understand That we are young, we're still so young Mapmaker, mapmaker, please sketch me a map To lead me and guide me back to where you'll find me I trust you'll know The way to go From here

about

The long lost recordings of Prom Date's first trip into the studio ca. 2007-2008. After a summer full of pool house practice sessions that inevitably turned into pizza party performances, we had something to say!
