Turn another page Write myself into a sleep again Words begin to fade Blue turns into grey I drift into my head I get lost out there In my own dreaming Flowing overtones when I start thinking Of you going nowhere Color back again My mind flooded with old thoughts of you You've been gone for years You suddenly appear So tell me where you've been You were la la la So much potential But you've become a different person Where's your answer Cuz now you're going nowhere

I’ve had too much in my head, Wondering what I should do next Won’t try to be who – I could be more like myself Even though I’m very strange Won’t try to be who – Who? La da da Not, I’m not Sometimes I’m a bug who keeps beat I’m an animal who screams Won't try to be who – I’m not I only want to be me But sometimes it’s hard to see Won’t try to be who Who? La da da I’m not

Do do do do do 0 o Help little kids step out of the front door Watch them grow up nice and smart, done their chores You want some time to clear your mind for sure You want some time to be who you once were Feel Alright You can do it, you’re strong people Do do do do do 0 o I know it’s tough to put your life on hold And never know where tomorrow will go You’re working late to pay off student loans You’re working late to pay for broken bones Feel Alright You can do it, you’re strong people Do do do do do 0 o Keep in tune, make some moves Do do do do do 0 o

I've been thinking I am worse off wishing And then I told you so Speak then regret, that's the best chance I'll get And I guess I take chances with you I should have just left instead Took a walk back to my door But at the edge of your bed You hang your head And throw your flowers at me, again Throw your flowers at me Filters turn off, I don't know where to speak That's stuff I never learned I'd rather just hang my head On your shoulder, solid bone And maybe my words won't drip slowly Off my tongue and maybe I won't mean it this time Maybe I won't mean it this time You're covered in blankets And you won't stop crying Would you tell me to get out I could be true I could be free if You were no one Listen to me I could be true I could be free if You were no one Listen to me!

everyday's a complicated waste of time comin up with reasons not 2 go outside "well, i've tried!" and though i know i'm good enough i'll never feel quite good enough i know, i know, enough's enough i know, i know i... i'm sorry i know, i know, enough's enough i know, i know i... i'm sorry every now and then i'm told 2 be myself every one around they seem 2 be themselves but i lie and though i know i'm here and now i'll never feel quite here and now i know, i know, enough's enough i know, i know i... i'm sorry i know, i know, enough's enough i know, i know i... i'm sorry i know, i know, enough's enough i know, i know i should shutup i know, i know, enough's enough i know, i know... i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry

In the script that you've got in your hands Do I come out alive? With a flick and a nod of your head Will my body survive? Like a life remote Does a life connote A man and a mind or both My remote control And our days are not separate affairs Is it me in these eyes? If I'm lost will you maybe pretend To control from inside? Like a life remote Does a life connote A man and a mind or both My remote control In the script that you've got in your hands Do I come out alive?

about

Gamma Bros Vol. II is a collection of songs written by three friends whose lives intersected seven years ago.

John Gudenzi and Will Sturgeon met each other in James Watson's freshman dorm room. The bros played college parties together, wrote music together, recorded in the same basements, and released homemade works over the next several years. Lo, riding the wave of time, they have washed upon different shores.

Longing for the collaboration that distance doesn't afford, the bros have reunited for the release of Gamma Bros Vol. II. The record features songs from upcoming solo releases by John, Will, and James.

As the bros assemble their own projects, they've met again here, at a new junction.
