You could document the writing, arranging, and recording of Amphetamine Smiles, but there’s no way to explain how it came together. It’s the product of some kind of magic. Listen/Buy “Amphetamine Smiles” from our upcoming album “152” here: “152“, our new album offers a lot more hope and light than we first realized when we were in the thick of it, putting it all together. We’ve been fortunate enough, through our music, to grow up with a lot of people going through the same things at the same time, and probably feeling the same way. Our hope is that you’re able to find a little bit of yourself in this new collection of songs, because you’re not alone, and neither are we. “152” out on October 27th.

Lyrics: (“Amphetamine Smiles” written by Shaun Cooper, Adam Lazzara, John Nolan, Mark O’Connell) Standing on the corner you were waiting for me It must’ve been past midnight I started thinking to myself it’s been a bad couple years Soon everything will be alright The moon shines down on amphetamine smiles We’ve finally got some time to kill You ask if I can make the best of these bad decisions I can and I will We talked until the sun came up It meant so much we can’t remember what You better save yourself before you try and save somebody else Now this is all you have A moment that we won’t ever get back (You won’t remember) Better save yourself before you try and save somebody else Half drunk Messiah with a smile on her face She told me not to take them pills I said girl you have no faith in medicine Love you like a brother Love you like no other I’m going to love you like no other can I am going to love you because no other can #takingbacksunday #152 #amphetaminesmiles “152” Track List: Smiles 2.
