about

Definitely the most rock sounding song on the album. Let out some teenage angst with this one kiddos!

lyrics

WESTWARD BOUND

And that’s why I’m westward bound
Going down at the sound of this gun
Don’t hold me back no more, back no more son
I’m so goddammed tired of the way I’ve been pushed around
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s why I’m westward bound, westward bound.

Yeah, 21 days and I haven’t been found
Been lost so long that I’m feeling beat
I must admit, I’m exhausted, weary
The soles of my shoes are all worn down to the soles of my feet.

Chorus:
And that’s why I’m westward bound
Going down at the sound of this gun
Don’t hold me back no more, back no more son
I’m so goddammed tired of the way I’ve been pushed around
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s why I’m westward bound, westward bound.

And forfeit my thoughts for a better life
You’ve got my arm twisted behind my mind
You pull us apart and watch as we fade away
You pull us apart, watch as we fade away.

And so we fight in the hidden war
And so we fight for those worth fighting for
If you look from time to time
You can read the lines of my mistakes
so we fight in the hidden war.

And that’s why I’m westward bound.

[Repeat Chorus]

Snacks at Midnight Spokane, Washington

It's like indie and funk had a kid who grew up to be the cool kid in high school. We are the best band several drunk bar goers have ever seen. We take influences from bands like Hippocampus, RKS, Dayglow and Lewis DelMar to name a few..
