1.	Daydream 02:42	lyrics	buy track
I don't wanna daydream tonight Waiting for the world to ignite Watching as the warnings replay Ready for a life led astray I don't wanna daydream tonight Waiting for the world to ignite Watching as the warnings replay Ready for a life led astray Follow me and you will see the danger of the tide Corners burn but all return to the same side Feather wing falls from above and sinks below the sea Guard the past as if the last Were all there'd ever be I don't wanna daydream tonight Waiting for the world to ignite Watching as the warnings replay Ready for a life led astray I don't wanna daydream tonight Waiting for the world to ignite Watching as the warnings replay Ready for a life led astray Through the glass a broken pass, pulling at the seams Threads that fray revoke the day Pacing through the themes Falling wind you can’t rescind, like summer through the trees Giving in to all you lost A curtain in the breeze I don't wanna daydream tonight Waiting for the world to ignite Watching as the warnings replay Ready for a life led astray I don't wanna daydream tonight Waiting for the world to ignite Watching as the warnings replay Ready for a life led astray
2.	Mantra 03:13	lyrics	buy track
I’ve been spending my time Dwelling in the memories In hopes to find the energy I need for something more Chasing the dream of incredible things But all I can see is what was before Reflections surrounding It feels like you’re drowning You are more than all you think You try to survive, but that’s not life Doubt is such a funny thing The voices in your head all sing Take a chance, don’t take a breath Don’t delay now All you have is nothing left You can’t stay down Go find your way Take a leap and leave behind all you hate Don’t let the fear control your life You can change And go run away I’ve been spending my time Letting go of all my worst designs Notions preconceived They’re alive yet you grieve The walls that you built constrict, confine Reflections surrounding Your doubts start compounding into that distant memory You’re here and alive, and that’s alright Break out of monotony Letting go of wait and see Take a chance, don’t take a breath Don’t delay now All you have is nothing left You can’t stay down Go find your way Take a leap and leave behind all you hate Don’t let the fear control your life You can change And go run away I’ve been spending my time Stuck inside a memory In hopes to find the energy I need for something more
3.	Strawberry Flavor 03:00	lyrics	buy track
Strawberry strawberry flavor I feel it on my teeth Ignore the altercations Building inside of me Let it out Down down It goes Till it shows Feel the dance, dance floor Toss back one more Orange cherry, orange cherry flavor Mixing this with that I feel the past and present The future I’ll toss it back Let it out Down down It goes Till it shows Feel the dance, dance floor Toss back one more Strawberry strawberry flavor Strawberry strawberry flavor Strawberry strawberry flavor Strawberry strawberry flavor Let it out Down down It goes Till it shows Feel the dance, dance floor Toss back one more Let it out Let it out Let it out Let it out Let it out Let it out Let it out Let it out
4.	Drop You a Line 02:31	lyrics	buy track
I can’t escape you, even in my dreams I feel intoxicated Every night captivated I guess I still adore you after all these years I thought I could forget you Together is what I choose Would you call if I dropped you a line? Said you could be mine A push to feel something new Think back to all we’ve been through Would you call if I dropped you a line? Said we’d be just fine It’s time we give it a shot ‘Us’ can’t be an afterthought Your eyes familiar, handsome like the sea Some things obvious changes But your gaze holds no strangeness I can feel the aching Can you feel it too? Our fingertips they touch once My spine shakes from the shock Would you call if I dropped you a line? Said you could be mine A push to feel something new Think back to all we’ve been through Would you call if I dropped you a line? Said we’d be just fine It’s time we give it a shot 'Us' can’t be an afterthought
5.	Unravel 02:55	lyrics	buy track
Lines on my face Feeling out of place in here Confidence misplaced Falling out of pace with you As we fall to the other side Feeling my heart spike remotely And it feels like it's gonna die While you see right through me I feel you beyond here The parts of you, you lost How I miss when you were incomplete Slow dance with your shadow A memory familiar but for now You are just out of reach Unravel together To glance your second chance And see you dream while I'm falling asleep Assemble our pieces But leave the space between for you and me To become memory Trace your name in the water Swimming from last summer Feel myself floating On your double exposure I nearly drown underwater I thought we'd go farther I nearly drown underwater I thought we'd go farther I feel you beyond here The parts of you, you lost How I miss when you were incomplete Slow dance with your shadow A memory familiar but for now You are just out of reach Unravel together To glance your second chance And see you dream while I'm falling asleep Assemble our pieces But leave the space between for you and me To become memory Drown underwater Thought we'd go Drown underwater
6.	Circles 03:00	lyrics	buy track
Hourglass and afterglow Change is evergreen But memories that linger never grow Overlay familiar tones Chasing the sound, but never make my own It’s true what they say about following A glance that you’ll never understand Never have I been, where I have been Cause it’s true what they say about wallowing On plans that you wrote on to your hand Lost inside repeating falling sand I’m running circles Everything that I had before I close the door I close the door I’m running circles Everything that I had before I close the door I close the door A cynical asymmetry Mimic yesterday A broken promise; new routine Watch it fade away Cause it’s true what they say about wallowing On plans that you wrote onto your hand Lost inside repeating falling sand I’m running circles Everything that I had before I close the door I close the door I’m running circles Everything that I had before I close the door I close the door
7.	Island Time 03:26	lyrics	buy track
I cried looking at a man Singing in his car Tapping his steering wheel My headspace is so far from his Living a life unconscious My life’s spent fantasizing Bout leaving and living on island time But that won’t fix anything No that won’t fix anything Da da da da da Da da da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da da Da da da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da I passed two younger girls On the side of the road Cleaning up a stranger’s mess They care more about the land of the free But those politicians control their bodies My life’s spent fantasizing Bout leaving and living on island time But that won’t fix anything No that won’t fix anything Da da da da da Da da da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da da Da da da da da Da da da da da da da Da da da da da Da da da
8.	Slow Fear 03:20	lyrics	buy track
Wait for three months to the day Soon to be And live the words you’ve come to say Finally And now, right as the time grows near Rapidly I find the weight of all I fear Suddenly Slow fear is catching up to me Nightmares become all that I see Even though I’ll get more than I need I fear Wake to tear down, out of mind Take away The weight of all I leave behind And what’s left me Have faith in all you choose to bring To the sea You'll find a new life when you're free Wait and see Slow fear is catching up to me Nightmares become all that I see Even though I’ll get all that I need I fear Slow fear is catching up to me Nightmares become all that I see Even though I’ll get more than I need I fear
9.	Dead Here Now 03:22	lyrics	buy track
I escaped here once again Distracted, I missed the rain Foggy, the smile of my child I may not see it in a while I'm dead here now Numb to the sound I'm dead here now I can't be found I'm dead here now Numb to the sound I'm dead here now I can't be found Engulfed by a memory I missed the brake lights ahead of me Seems I was already gone Dead I've been from my birth on I'm dead here now Numb to the sound I'm dead here now I can't be found I'm dead here now Numb to the sound I'm dead here now I can't be found I'm dead here now Numb to the sound I'm dead here now I can't be found I'm dead here now Numb to the sound I'm dead here now I can't be found
10.	On and On 03:02	lyrics	buy track
What a lot of wasted time No one’s been on my mind The past five years or so The past five years or so Deeper creases everyday Nostalgic runaway For memories that fade For memories that fade I could have been anything But it’s all collapsed My brain it aches On and on and on and on Give me a brand new sky Or at least brand new eyes Sleepwalk on and on and on On and on and on What a shock it’s been When I wake in bed The walls still grey with dirt The walls still grey with dirt The mirror unfogs And you disappear I guess I dreamt you up I guess I dreamt you up I could have been anything But it’s all collapsed My brain it aches On and on and on and on Give me a brand new sky Or at least brand new eyes Sleepwalk on and on and on On and on and on
11.	Worthless (Explicit) 04:13	lyrics	buy track
I want to feel less guilty about Sun soaked dreamy days When I wish life away On silly little things Thought I don’t really need Other things like daydreams But a decade later I still feel eighteen I kept telling myself Someday you’ll leave But that’s not working out for me No not for me I feel so fucking worthless But I swear to God I’ll make something worth it I feel so fucking worthless But I swear to God I’ll make something worth it I kept telling myself Someday you’ll leave But that’s not working out for me No not for me I feel so fucking worthless But I swear to God I’ll make something worth it I feel so fucking worthless But I swear to God I’ll make something worth it

about

Fritz & Simone

Fritz & Simone are the pseudonyms of two friends who met while working on a film set in Dayton, Ohio. They approach songwriting from a multi-sensory perspective that pulls from their film background, and extends to how they design their visuals. This year they released their second album which was produced while working in a hardware store and animal shelter. ... more
