Michelle The whole album wails but The Only Car in particular is very danceable. This is the kind of music where you realize you're tapping your feet and hands unconsciously. Feels good, man. Favorite track: The Only Car.

Ashley Rellora "Ghost Ferrari" is relaxing, evocative, and beautiful. One of those songs that make me stop and ponder. Favorite track: Ghost Ferrari.

The Only Car 03:01
One more night, one more fight I should stay, but I don't Return to set things right, but she won't, she won't, no, no, no Raise my arms and pray aloud: "Make clear all that evil shrouds.." She asks me if I might get scared, what a joke! We live on rubber wheels waiting for changing lights Crimson, one breath I steal then it's back to the fight, oh, oh, no One day we will drive so far we will be the only car A silly way to feel, but it keeps my head screwed on tight Conscious in bed at last still wanting, still fatigued Thoughts, visions, reveries pass things a sad heart decreed, oh, oh, oh I lean over, meet her gaze Dreamt we both of better days When nothing moves too fast and we've got all we need, yeah, yeah, yeah_

Leave the light off, leave the light off It's fine the way it is in here fine the way it is, my dear Leave the light off, leave the light off One less dime we have to pay nightmares find us either way Sleep_ Where are my spirits? Bring me my wine Can't print what I must now forget may tell you in time, my pet Leave the light off, I said it's fine let whiskey put us both to bed tryin to forget all I've said Sleep_ When I wake up I start to think Slow at first, my memory burns then all at once, it all returns You can run on when you drink but there's no dimension you can hide in hunting is what dreams take pride in Sleep_ Leave the light off I'm alright But how far to the nearest star? Could I make it there tonight? Sleep..

Hate Like Me 03:15
I'm worried I'm just next in line another tale of tragedy A horror story you relay so women stay away from me I'll probably hurt you, can't you tell? Conceited, and so purely vain I'm only sane enough to know if you should leave, I must remain And though I'm sure you say we all do things we hate you couldn't hate like me at Satan's gate, like me Sure you say we all do things we hate but you don't hate like me, you couldn't hate like me We could forego the childish play and you could stay alone and free I would condone, I'd not betray or, come what may, no matter to me But do you not feel doubt creep in? A taste that follows what feels right When boldness gathers us within our skin is gold in candlelight And though I'm sure you say we all do things we hate you couldn't hate like me, at such a rate like me Sure you say we all do things we hate but you don't hate like me, you couldn't hate like me If you're opposed to pain, then run I've got a gun called love you see And any fool can fire a round but now the fool you've found is me My heavy heart's on your account the waves of pity pull me down I'll never reconcile this fate these silly songs shall still abound And though I'm sure you say we all do things we hate you couldn't hate like me it never sates, you see Sure you say we all do things we hate but you don't hate like me You couldn't hate like me at all
