(two, three, two three four five!)
just take one
lets make this fun
dont waste your day
trying to run away
its not none
you shant be shunned
say, if i may
try again today
remind me of the times
when it felt we had so many words to rhyme
but in reality, we only had one
we used it so, so much but it still was fun
just take one
just take one
its all youll need
just take one
just take one
just take one
its all you will ever need
just take one
<solo>
la la la...

hey look its that time of the year
time to not go live off on my fear
but to have myself a good time
try new words to go rhyme
make myself alright
hey old man hows been your life
cause ive heard stuff hasnt been alright
but ill try and be there
go make an attempt to care
make sure youre alright
cause people will say
that its only today
just live each day like its your last
but that wouldnt be so fun
stress would go overrun and
stick to you and your past
id rather just make it a good day
id hope itd at least be a good day
<solo>
la la la...
</solo>
look its that time of the week
when i try to be at my peak
max out your effort
but try not to get hurt
just please stay alright
my old friend its been a while
glad that i could go and see you smile
im happy that youre still here
not trying to disappear
glad that youre alright
cause people will say
that its only today
just live each day like its your last
but that wouldnt be so fun
stress would go overrun and
stick to you and your past
id rather just make it a good day
id hope that we all have some good days
id rather we just go the right way
i hope that we all have some good days

oh, oh, oh...
take us off
your mental blacklist
cause weve fixed our wrongs
what part of it have you missed?
so take us off
we will persist
cause it was in the past
were better than this
you can say that were full of lies
go refuse to realize
that we have changed
just as you
you can say that nothings changed
your insults are out of range
cause we have learned to see it through
so take us off
of our past sins
let us change
let us win, instead of having us start again
put us in
a better place than you
we will fix
whatever you will do
ooh, ooh...
<solo>
</solo>
so take us off
of our past sins
let us change
let us win, instead of having us start again

what a great time for you to pop in today!
we were just havin some small talk, like...
"hows the weather, how are you?
your favorite color, im guessing blue?
how are your pets, they doin well?
i sure hope so, cause im doin swell!"
cause i would love to talk with you
but i never ever think of the things to say
just a minute ago, i had this play out in my head
i swear i had things to say that were not already said!
what a great time for you to pop in today!
we were just trying to stay conversational
i know it seems like every time you see me its in this way
ill try to say some talk thats more rich and full, like...
"are you okay? i saw hesitation
dont be this way, think of our relations
i know shit sucks, for everyone in every place
but with our luck, we can fix our situation."
cause i still love to talk with you
even if i never think of the things to say
ill keep on singin my anxiety anthem
til i can give you a check, to see if youre okay

about
It's only fitting to do these songs justice for the five-year anniversary. <3
This is a remake of my first big release on the ol' Quirby64 name - this was really a huge thing for me, though the songs aren't the best now, full offense to myself. There's no better way to celebrate how much me and my friends have grown than with a remake EP! I hope you're all doing well, have a great day!
