Toe the line between sand and sea
The bitter ice, the bitter ice
Morning hours, wilting flowers
From frost bite, from frost bite
I waited an hour, I guess she forgot me
I paid at the counter, left my tip in a sunken defeat
I spotted a bar, Why not give misery some company?
I reach for the door, when this ol' haunt seemed to say to me,
"Turn around..."
Twas the date, December 28th
Round midnight, round midnight
Not a whisper, not a trace of human life
There I stayed all night
Waiting for Cathy to come, for someone to notice me
My body is numb, from toeing the line between sand and sea
I breathe in the snow, laid into soft-focus
But that was hours ago
'Oh, how the first light descends wearily upon Morse Beach'

I found you when I returned home
Parched and sick to your bones
Don’t lie and say you’ve been up or out of
Your bed today
Why would I give you your keys
When you can barely say please
Don’t lie and say you won’t come back
So hopelessly sleepy
Our charming conversation grows
Increasingly distant and vague
You think you’re in first-rate form
You don’t become sentimental and warm
Don’t lie and say you haven’t been with
Your very best friend

Change

Change is something that they said was good when I was growing up
Change is what falls in between the seats of the car
Change is for some greater design- nah, fuck it that shit just happens
Change out of your shoes and your coat cause nobody's home
Funny, the seasons change but to them it's just normality
Autumn she always comes and goes
With all this change in life I wanted you to be my one normality but Autumn she always comes and goes
Change is what I did to myself so I could simply feel love
Change was going to fix everything that I thought was wrong
Change was going to make them all feel sorry about then before
Change was going to take me about a year or so
Funny, the seasons change but to them it's just normality
Autumn she always comes and goes
With all this change in life I wanted you to be my one normality but Autumn she always comes and goes, goes
So I changed, but I didn't see all the good I thought would, headstrong, come my way
So I changed, but still inside me I knew that something was wrong
So one day, I met my mirror and I said, "Hey boy, I think we need some help."
So now I skate along the border of a human being and a human becoming
It's so funny, the seasons change but to them it's just normality
Autumn can pack her shit and go
I change my mind, this time I just need truth to be my one normality
Cause Autumn will always come and go by
Starting off warm to then abandoning you cold
As the morning sun fades the Earth from green to gold
Change is something that they say is good but I'm still growing up
Change is what falls in between the seats of the car

Day Off Chicago, Illinois
Day Off is a Chicago-based indie rock band formed by Andrew Milliken (Keyboard), Grant Brown (Guitar/Vox) and Kieran McCabe
(Drums/Vox) in the summer of 2017.
Using their only day off from work at a summer stock theater, these lads created a musical coalition (as well as a comedic origin short film) in order to take the Chicago music scene by storm and have fun doing it.
