Re•Issue EP Jul19
The EP Jul 19 is Re•Issue's first recording.
Co-produced by Ben Anderton and Re•Issue
All tracks arranged by Re•Issue
Basic tracks recorded at Marks Music on 09/12/19. Drums, guitar and bass all recorded simultaneously in the Marks studio. Three takes for each song. We used the best of the three. This method helps to provide a more live and EDGEy feel - which is what Re•Issue is all about.

Track 1 - Something New (Willaman)
lyrics
verse I
Burn my nights
Up like Swisher Sweets
Tossed my red cups up like they was
Valentines to the street
And the girls
Oh the girls
chorus
But this feels like something new
Yeah it do
This feels like something new
verse II
Porch lights
Douse that cigarette
Like the lies I told ya
Just to get
With the girls
Oh the girls
Track 2 - Panic! (Willaman)
lyrics
verse I
The Trembling hand
The defunct mind
Stumbles on a mystery
Douse the light
Fire up your mind
Standing right in front of me
My restless blade
Your twitching eye
Searching for a mystery
The slick black fear
The flailing Mind
Standing right in front of you
Won't you take, won't you take it up high
An' I'll take, and I'll take it down low
Burn it right in front of you
Won't you take it, won't you take it up high
I'll take it, take it down low
Burning up inside of you
verse II
Flash start the fade
Fade start the fall
Jaw to the stone and teeth to the air
The rictus grin
The broke down scheme
Of chasing down a mystery
Won't you take, won't you take me up high
Don't you send me, send me down low
Burning up in front of you
Track 3 - The Club (Barron)
lyrics
verse I
I don't believe the news today
cause I don't know what is true
Words and stories come our way
but no truth for me and you
Social media twists and turns
guide us to their plot
I'm confident that this is not
for what our fathers' fought
The leaders are in bed with any
who will help finance their way
Afraid to stand up and do what's right
cause they all want their pay
I guess I'm just dreamin' and starry eyed
hoping for a hero
Stand up for right and down with wrong
and do it without ego
chorus
You're in the Club, or you're not
If you've got money, you'll be sought
They're greedy rich, self content
They could care less about us peasants
If you're in the middle class
you know it's all a loss
The Club expects you to kiss their ass
and PAY for all their costs
verse II
We're a nation of sheep easily led
have been since day one
The earth is flat and you're persecuted
until they're proven wrong
The inquisition is different today
but believe me it's still here
There's no room for opposing views
they'll scalp you and leave you there
There's anger hate and mistrust
fueled by many sources
Media and politics run by greed
just to fill their courses
Now I for one am not buyin' it
their lies and selfish truths
To me it's all just bullshit
like a martini without vermouth
bridge
Do you believe in right or wrong
or is it just a convenient truth
Do you believe their's equality for all
if you do then show me the proof
The Club is always right never wrong
they change their views to suit their needs
But consistent with one thing that's for sure
because we know who their gonna bleed
Pay their costs
Pay their costs
Pay their costs
Pay their costs
Pay their costs NOW
(guitar)
verse III
Age to age person to person
we're told we're gettin' worse
But we're workin' hard and savin' up
so the Club can steal our purse
Now I'm not saying there's just one way
most of care what's up
But the way they taint it and try to divide us
and serve us from their cup
WE NEED TO BE STRONG AND NEED TO BE FAIR
WE NEED TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT
WE NEED TO RESIST THE HATE AND THE BIAS
BE SURE AND GIVE THEM FLIGHT
STAND UP STAND UP AND BE HEARD
YOUR VOICE IT COUNTS STAND TALL
BE STRONG, BE COURAGEOUS, AND BE HEARD
LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL
You're in the Club, or you're not
If you've got money, you'll be sought
They're greedy rich, self content
They could care less about us peasants
If you're in the middle class
you know it's all a loss
The Club expects you to kiss their ass
and PAY for all their costs
PAY FOR ALL THEIR COSTS
PAY FOR ALL THEIR COSTS
PAY FOR ALL THEIR COSTS...

Track 4 - Drift Away (Willaman)
lyrics
verse I
Do you mean that
The way it sounds
The weight of your words
All falling down
Is this it? huh
That's how it seems, but
If there's no dreamer
Then there's no dream
No dream
There's something beautiful
To the fear
That there's something more then
Not just being here
chorus
But right now
It's you and I
And there is no how
And there is no why
But tomorrow
Who's to say
We won't just drift away
verse II
There's alchemy
In your belief
That turns magic
Into concrete
There's something beautiful
In you tears
When there's something more
Than not just being here
Track 5 - Not Much Time (Barron)
lyrics
Not much time
Not much time
Not much time
verse I
She's runnin' tight
she's runnin' tonight
Got things on her mind to see
lookin' to fight
She's been though hell
not lookin' well
She' a fighter and survivor, yeh
you can tell
chorus
There's not much time
You know it's true
There's not much time
She'll see it through...
verse II
He's facing the time
Know's he crossed the line
He's runnin' from the truth
he's been unkind
He's half ashamed
that she's been pained
He's hurtin' and a jerkin'
time to face the fray
Well he's hurtin' and a jerkin'
time to face the fray
chorus
There's not much time
You know it's true
There's not much time
He'll see it through...
(guitar)
verse III
There's not much time
You know it's true
There's not much time
They'll see it through
There's not much time
You know it's true
There's not much time
They'll see it through...
He's duty bound
to see her now
Knows he's got a lot to lose
when and how
They're talkin' today
somehow...someway
Doesn't have a plan
but knows what to say
Well it's a sign
they're back in time
Worked through issues and pain
feelin' fine
Well it's ok
doin' fine today
Walkin' hand in hand
what can I say
Not much time got lovin' to do
Not much time...(got lovin' to do) oooo
Not much time...(they'll see it through) oooo
Not much time...ooooo.......
Track 6 - This Place Is A Wreck (Willaman)
lyrics
verse I
Dishes all broke
Her scent all gone
Kicked off casual
But came on so strong
chorus
Oh, this place is a wreck
Undecided, the broken hearted
Current dragging them here, right here
Oh, this place is a wreck
Unrequited, no strength to fight it
Current dragging them here
verse II
Stumble off the street
Came to rest in my lawn
Chill of November
Risin' blue as the dawn
Fell through a life
That just would not start
Languished in doldrums
Till it fell apart
