#VERSE
There were castles in the sky
Till we both just realized
There're only clouds
Yeah
In the sea of broken dreams
There are washed-out memories
Beyond the sounds
Yeah
#CHORUS
So we fight another war
Love had so much more in store
We will reach the farthest shore
No doubt about it
And despite the hourglass
We built a love that was meant to last
And we won't live in the past
No doubt about it
We're just caught in the crossfire
We're just caught in the crossfire
#VERSE
Like the ghost in the well
We're casting visions and spells
Cause most things fail
We just need the space to heal
To let go of the steering wheel
Cause time will tell
#CHORUS
So we fight another war
Love had so much more in store
We will reach the farthest shore
No doubt about it
And despite the hourglass
We built a love that was meant to last
And we won't live in the past
No doubt about it
We're just caught in the crossfire
We're just caught in the crossfire
#CHORUS
So we fight another war
Love had so much more in store

Don’t mess with me darling
I’ve had really rough
Don’t mess with me darling
Cause I can call your bluff
And they say I’m the wild one
But you’re the one who has to be free
This bottle of whisky is just the cure to your disease
But I think I’ve fallin again
Ever since I let you back in
You crawled back under my skin Oh love was here to stay
Till you took it away
Till you took it away
Till you took it away
Till you took it away
You left on that southbound train Left on that southbound train
Don’t mess with me darling
I’m tired of losing sleep
Don’t mess with me darling
There’s a secret I can keep
They say I’m the wild one
But you’re the one who has to be free This instability is the only certainty
But I think I’ve fallin again
Ever since I let you back in
You crawled back under my skin Oh love was here to stay
Till you took it away
Till you took it away
Till you took it away
Till you took it away
You left on that southbound train Left on that southbound train

They say
That you are just a dreamer
That you
Are really in love with love
I hope someday it comes to find you
So I can give you up
So I can give you up
I know
You have expectations
We leak like the cracks in our cups
I hope someday we come to realize
That I can give you up
that I can give you up
I guess
It's part of the equation
Because we’ve both had it really ruff
I hope someday we choose a different road
So I can give you up
So I can give you up
Remembering
Remembering
Remembering

So I can give you up
So I can give you up

I know that I have never met you
Even though we are flesh and blood
Every day I have thought about you
Like the angels that are watchin from up above
So don’t lose faith
So don’t lose faith
Honey don’t lose faith
Someday we’ll face to face
The world is so much darker than we realized
Evil hides beneath every stone
And somewhere through the distance and the twilight
Let my voice guide you home
So don’t lose faith
So don’t lose faith
Honey don’t lose faith
Someday we’ll face to face
It’s hard to think that life can be this hard
And now and then it breaks a father’s heart
And even through this life if we remain apart
I’ll be crying out in the dark
Don’t lose faith
So don’t lose faith
Honey don’t lose faith
Someday we’ll face to face

We’re the kids of the cold war Crawling out of a reservoir
Of love
We’re the kids of the cold war
We’re overlooked by we’re hardcore With life
And we dare to defy And we dare to defy And we dare to defy As we cross the line
And we dare to defy And we dare to defy And we dare to defy As we cross the line
We’re the kids of the cold war
We always knew that there was more To life
We’re the kids of the cold war
We found something to live for
In life
And we dare to defy And we dare to defy And we dare to defy As we cross the line
And we dare to defy And we dare to defy And we dare to defy As we cross the line

01:19.82
To find that hell is on the inside
Verse
01:37.49
Darkness fills all your days
01:44.78
Through menacing disarray
01:52.34
The demons come to step the stage

But you're the hand that locks the cage
02:07.52
You're the one who locks the cage

How many waves
To wash away the pain?
How many days
Till we can turn the page?
How many ways
To get out of this maze?
How many waves
Till we can dull the pain?
You drive me stir crazy
For stringing me along
I used to call you baby
But those nights are long gone
And these memories they string
And get the best of me
And these memories
They sting
And get the best of me
She gets the best of me
Best part of me
How many clues
All point back to you?
How much bad news

How many clues
Bring me back to you?
You drive me stir crazy
For stringing me along
I used to call you baby
But those nights are long gone
And these memories they string
And get the best of me
And these memories
They sting

You drive me stir crazy for stringing me along
I used to call you baby but those nights are long gone And these memories they string and get the best of me And these memories they string and get the best of me

Did you think that I would compromise
You take anything and more
You cut my throat and guage out my eyes
You take anything and more
That I’m transfixed by our photographs
You take anything and more
I’d look ahead but keep going back
You take anything and more
You’re a beautiful nightmare
Nightmare
A beautiful nightmare
Nightmare
You burn my legs with your cigarettes
You take anything and more
You make me regret feeling regret
You take anything and more
You hold me down till I cannot breath
You take anything and more
And make me give the apology
You take anything and more
You’re a beautiful nightmare
Nightmare
A beautiful nightmare
Nightmare
And I don’t want to wake up to face this reality
And I don’t want to wake to reclaim my identity
You gaslight me till my head explodes
You take anything and more
And make me think there’s nowhere else to go
You take anything and more
You’re a beautiful nightmare
Nightmare
A beautiful nightmare
Nightmare

I don’t know why
You won’t say why
You came back in my life
Is it just some wicked game
To make me feel the pain
And drive us both inside
Do you like to watch me suffer
Does it make you feel alive
That your with another lover
As you’re taking me for a ride
For a ride
There’s no
Second chances
On this merry-go-round
There’s no

How you don’t understand
How you are hurting me again
You’re kindness is cruel
As you play me for a fool
And use me like a tool
Do you have any compassion
Is it buried deep me inside
Are you here for the reaction
As you’re taking me for a ride
For a ride

We’ve been here before
That’s why we
Keep pulling away

Killing hearts for a living

So let’s

I’ve been talking in my sleep
About pain I can’t repeat
Because the memories string me along.
Overhead about your sex life
Saw the photos of your new life
I’m accustomed to feeling numb.
And I try to push it forward
And ignore that I am awkward
Cause I’m chasing a dream that’s gone
Avoid all the triggers
And instead of pointing fingers
I know waiting for you’s so wrong.
But do you remember the night I met you.
So baby
Let’s go run
Until you save my life
We’ll stay talking till the morning light
And then I’ll drive you home.
So baby
We won’t stop for any red light.
I’ll hold you tight till the daylight
And then I’ll drive you home.
And then I’ll drive you home.
Home.
And you know that I’m addicted
Cause your love is that effective.
And its grip on me’s so strong.
I tried to go to rehab
But I couldn’t be accepted
They could see I was still withdrawn.
I pretend that I am sober
By pretending it’s not over
And this online status is wrong
I am barely breathing
As I’m staring at the ceiling
It’s a struggle to carry on.
But do you remember the night I met you.
So baby
Let’s go run
Until you save my life
We’ll stay talking till the morning light
And then I’ll drive you home.
So baby
We won’t stop for any red light.
I’ll hold you tight till the daylight
And then I’ll drive you home.
And then I’ll drive you home.
Home.
So baby
Let’s go run
Until you save my life
We’ll stay talking till the morning light
And then I’ll drive you home.
So baby
We won’t stop for any red light.
I’ll hold you tight till the daylight
And then I’ll drive you home.
And then I’ll drive you home.

I can’t sleep
The devil’s in my dreams
She’s chasing after me
And all the space between.
No I can’t breathe.
Been holding my breath.
She’s taking everything from me
Until there’s nothing left.
She brings me down to my knees.
Because her memories won’t leave.
I can’t think.
She’s cast another spell.
It’s taken hold of me.
Like the hounds of hell.
I can’t see.
The sex has made me blind.
It’s coming down on me.
Like’ she’s the antiChrist.
She brings me down to my knees.
Because her memories won’t leave.
She brings me down to my knees.
Because her memories won’t leave.

Inhalant Press Release:
Mixing emotive vocals with hypnotic rhythmic melodies, Hollywood-based producer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Waves_On_Waves and collaborators present “Inhalant,” a new album with acoustic tracks that are crafted out of authentic romanticism with healing propensities. Beyond the gentle croon of the vocals and modern pop polish, Waves_On_Waves reestablishes the piano as a rock & roll instrument, commanding the keys with both intimacy and aggression. After releasing volumes of synthwave and electronic dance collaborations, Waves_On_Waves will pause to realign, following instincts to return focus on haunting piano-based compositions with his ace production team. “If a song sounds great stripped to its bare essence, it’s guaranteed to sound stellar once fully produced.” Standing on their own, the confessional piano ballads, orchestrated meditations, and stripped-down poetics embedded in the tracks on “Inhalant” will infiltrate your aesthetic core with healing propensities and envelop you as if applying ointment to a scar.
