I know this sucks, my friends  I’m on the way home again I’m lost without your scent I dunno when we’ll meet again I know this sucks, my friends I’m on the way home again I’m lost without your scent I dunno when we’ll meet again That’s all Ive seen Dancing on silent screens Heart’s always on your sleeve I sing as you repeat “So long to those nights dancing”   I know this sucks, my friends I'm on the way home again   Another night At home again The soft blue light Numbs the loneliness Here we go again   I know this sucks, my friends I’m on the way home again I’m lost without your scent I dunno when we’ll meet again I know this sucks, my friends I’m on the way home again I’m lost without your scent I dunno when we’ll meet again That’s all I've seen Dancing on silent screens Heart’s always on your sleeve I sing as you repeat “So long to those nights dancing”   I know this sucks, my friends I'm on my way home again     Another night At home again The soft blue light Numbs the loneliness Here we go again
2.	The Signal 03:51	lyrics	buy track
While you hold on All the leaves fall off   (I need) That signal I need the right song (now)   (I see) There’s no tomorrow now To sing to us tonight   Just say you tried
3.	Now To Become One 03:48	lyrics	buy track
If you really have to know No the answer has not changed It’s not what you had hoped For me to choose   So hard to understate The disappointment on your face Should I resign to my fate Before it starts to drive me insane Now   Let’s take our lives back now   Let’s all become what we dreamed we were   Is it yes or no? It’s not the world you’re carrying Should I resign to my fate Before it starts to drive me insane Now   Let’s take our lives back now   Let’s all become what we dreamed we were   Can’t soothe Can’t resolve Can’t soothe Can’t resolve Let’s take our lives back now
4.	Your Nightmare 03:36	lyrics	buy track
Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Nothing makes sense in Your nightmare No one can save you No one will save me I see you’re still awake I can’t sleep no more You better take Me back home   Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Nothing makes sense in Your nightmare No one can save you No one will save me   No one will save me    Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Nothing makes sense in Your nightmare No one can save you No one will save me   Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Everyone seems to Now you wanna care Nothing makes sense in Your nightmare No one can save you No one will save me

about

A barrier is a circumstance or obstacle that keeps people or things apart or prevents communication or progress. A barrier is also used to protect those inside of it from the forces at play beyond the barrier’s borders. This was a concept that Matt Weiner aka TWINS could not get out of his head as he wrote and recorded these songs during the first 4 weeks of the pandemic and self-isolation - easily the greatest barrier that the world has collectively dealt with in his lifetime. In his own words Matt says, "I was determined to keep a shred of sanity intact by losing myself thoroughly in the process of making these songs and taking advantage of the unprecedented amount of free time I found myself with to try and take my craft to new heights. The songs on this EP deal with every thing from dependency on screen time, to people who never had to question their behavior until they could no longer ignore it, to seizing this unique moment of crushed paradigms to build a new world from the ashes that allows everyone to live their lives the way they’d always envisioned for themselves."
