about

Another album that was conceptualized but never saw the light of day was The Pineapple Army's Are You?/Are You. It would have been a double album of newly written songs that weren't on The Month Project. A lot of songs we're demoed but a recording session for the album never materialized so the songs were ultimately allocated to various other projects: Candlestick Army and my solo venture.

This song was VERY different in it's early conception. It was a riff I've repurposed multiple times for multiple songs. It was eventually rewritten into a way better song 10 years later.

lyrics

Two tickets on a passage to paradise
Pack no belongings cause they'll just weigh us down
Hard candy: butterscotch and peppermint
Six, colored vials and well-crafted decadence

Train tracks over bridges and broken inns
The crazy neighbors with their addled perspectives
They'll share their message if I open my mouth
And let them kiss me on the tongue

I can't believe I went and did it again
Now I'm sleeping alone in my bed and that's just fine
I told the landlord that I'd pay him but I lied
And now I have to leave the country again
And I don't mind

We will write commercial jingles for the right price and we do NOT play at weddings, only funerals. ... more
