7 Months In Brackets, I should've Read The Fine Print
There’s static on this non existent line
It’s been silent for quite some time
Walked past your window saw the lights were on
7 months in brackets it’s all gone
Heavily sedated no feelings exterminated
I didn’t shower praying for your scent to amplify
Wishing myself back to times when I forgot to eat
Not times when I didn’t want to
And I hate it
Stuck in this town
Slowly making it my own
Slowly making it alone
Fall back in line
you’re better off this way
But I’m better off better off
Stuck in this town
Slowly making it my own
Slowly making it alone
Fall back in love
I am better off this way
There’s static on this non existent line
It’s been silent for quite some time
Walked past your window saw the lights were on
7 months in brackets it’s all gone
Heavily sedated no feelings exterminated
I didn’t shower praying for your scent to amplify
Wishing myself back to times when I forgot to eat
Not times when I didn’t want to
And I hate it

Unfortunately, Dislocating Your Heart Is Physically Impossible
I can hear the elevator
Still get that feeling in my gut
Just waiting to hear your knocking on my door
Disconnect my phone
My friends all say I dodged a bullet
But I want you to come over
Just waiting for you to shoot me in my head
Dislocate my heart
You washed me off
It’s just never over
The one that got away in brackets
My friends all say I’m better off
Still waiting to hear your knocking on my door
Disconnect my phone
I still hear the elevator
Won’t make assumptions so fuck off
Just waiting for you to shoot me in my head
Dislocate my heart
You washed me off
It’s just never over
The writing’s on the wall
But your artwork is not
The writing’s on the wall
But your paintings are gone

Let’s Try This One More Time (With Feeling)
Reclaiming parts of this town, one by one
Has someone taken my place?
Who even cares anymore
I walked 9 miles in a fucking snowstorm
Through the useless streets of this town
To prove I’m stronger
Finding my way back (Fall in line or fall out of love)
Need to work this out (Fall in love or fall out of line)
Choosing my way up (Fall in line or fall out of love)
Need to see this through (Fall in love or fall out of line)
I do it all for you to see, will you hear this song?
Na nah na nah nah na nah nah nah
Is what they sang and it used to make me feel better
I got 3 ways to fall asleep
I should clean this up
But the pills are kicking in
Finding my way back (Fall in line or fall out of love)
Need to work this out (Fall in love or fall out of line)
Choosing my way up (Fall in line or fall out of love)
Need to see this through (Fall in love or fall out of line)

I Wanna Play Mailbox Baseball, Get The Searchlights Out
Close proximity is fucking overrated
All I needed was to get completely wasted
Fell on my face I stumbled on the falling out
Scratches and bruises I need to get the fuck out
Another night like this I’ll end up in the gutter
Waking up with someone new did you hear me stutter?
No, I know, now I know, I know you know: you won’t be there
One more drink
Don’t wanna think
Throwing up, giving up, is it really worth it
Smoke it up, drink up, what the fuck was in that cup
Making friends, it depends, on your definition
Falling down, getting sick, I am such a fucking dick
Black eye, black heart, fell down the stairs tonight
Driving through the valleys on these icy fucking roads
Falling down, getting sick, I am such a fucking dick
I hope this song makes you wanna throw your arms up in the air and scream
Close proximity is fucking overrated
All I needed was to get completely wasted
Fell on my face I stumbled on the falling out
Scratches and bruises I need to get the fuck out
Another night like this I’ll end up in the gutter
Waking up with someone new did you hear me stutter?
No, I know, now I know, I know you know: you won’t be there
I hope this song makes you wanna throw your arms up in the air and scream

Good Night, Nurse
Nah nah nah nah nah
I’m doing this for me
As always easier said than done
Slowly getting back to what it was
Still
Thoughts running through my head
Stuck in reverse
How could you let this go
And give it up so easily
Easily
Let me go
Easily
Let it go
Reclaiming parts of this town
That used to be
You and me
I let you down
But you won’t let me go
I let you down
But you won’t let me go
Reclaiming parts of me
That used to be
All my own
Easily
Let me go
Easily
Let it go
Nah nah nah nah nah

Carl Mörner Ringström Stockholm, Sweden
Inner turbulence. Lashing out. Hopeful melancholy. Catharsis through music.
Even though the Stockholm based
guitarist has been very honest musically on his previous releases, CMR's new release is about as honest and transparent as it gets. Singing/screaming his heart out off of imaginary Souhern California rooftops on "On Matters Of:" adds a new and welcome dimension to the honesty.
