Accelerator 02:29
stop telling me things are going to be so much better when you're easing my foot off the accelerator stop telling me things you know i'll never remember made decisions in haste on a snowy december day stop telling me things are going to be so much brighter what i wanted to say is that i never did mind it

I'm Sorry 04:03
i'm sorry, i can't stay feeling linger never fade i never meant for it to end this way since i met you, i'm not the same long nights in the rain heartbreak, total pain i saw your face just yesterday now i'm on my way... thoughts of you still linger around i can't believe it and i hate this town i close my eyes and clutch the ground why does it always end this way? feelings linger and never fade since i met you, i'm not the same feelings linger and never fade away

about

The second EP released by Resident Genius, these three songs truly showcase an expanded musical palette. This was a blast to record. If memory serves, there were very few arguments. This may be the only release that wasn't plagued with some kind of upheaval.

A very young Tim Reynolds (Hospital Job, Horrible Things) adds trumpet to the title track.

Recording Engineer Joe Tury, who recorded nearly all of the band's output, added guitar all over this EP. Any guitar that sounds haflway decent is no doubt Joe. A true musician and gentleman.
