Hello? Can you hear me over the noise? My God, you're so beautiful. Are you God? I think you're God. They always sing songs. They always say, we're never going to die, but I think they're wrong. You know, I think we are going to die? We're going to die. But, not tonight. We're not going to die tonight. We're not going to die tonight.

All of the coastguards dumbfounded as we run on water, carbon and memories, yes we are the stuff dreams are made on. Come now love, dry your eyes. We've got our whole lives to get it right. Do you believe in the divine providence of our kind? Whether you walk, whether you run, we'll get there in our time where stars with legs walk on. All of the air force confounded as we swim from cloud to cloud, bullets, bombs, and power, all rage, and cold showers: the stuff dreams are crushed on. Come now love, dry your eyes, we've got our whole lives to get it wrong and wrong and wrong and wrong and wrong and wrong and right! Do you believe in the divine providence of our kind? Whether you walk, whether you run, we'll get there in our time. Every God is worshiped so well. All our bad intentions show the road out of hell. Stars with legs walk on and on and on and on and on and on and on. Every Goddess worshiped so well. All our bad intentions show the road out of hell. And stars with legs walk on.

Villain(s) 05:37
Compromise all of the laws and lies. I can see through you. You’re only losing time now. Stuck in the heart space, fallen from your own grace, Believe your own legends when there is no face to save. I know you. You know me. We are who we’ve always been. Marching towards dusk now, the Villain(s) harbors nothing but her doubts. She’d love to claim your life. She says "offer your soul tonight. Don’t bring a your gut to a heart fight baby. Give me what I want or its bound to get shady. Let’s play a game where you all go crazy alone in the dark while they call you lazy. Let the darkness-" Don’t let the dark take you over. Don’t let the darkness, Don’t let the dark take you over. Come back to when we were all friends and not at war for something more. Creation only costs your pride, but resignation is wholly divine. We are all wholly divine. Millions of sun gods subtly taking form. You can't control them but what would you want to for? Rest now, you don’t have to own the track. Breathe out, please take your time coming back. Take out the vision, promote your derision. With the little incisions, we’re off for collision. Don’t lose your heart with a heartless conviction, and if you won’t listen then I guess you're the Villain(s). You won’t get what you need when/if you hold too tightly. There won’t be any dark if we all burn brightly. Let the light take you over.

There are ghosts for days coming up from the graves, and the barn sings an old fashioned sing-along with them. The children are laughing, and dancing, and bleating, "Hold on!" Hold on. "Hold on!" And the lights in your eyes, they only scream their goodbyes. You don't have to say it out loud. It don't matter now anyhow when the children are laughing, and dancing, and bleating, "Hold on!" Hold on. "Hold on!"

We won't be together for one thousand years of weather, but that still will change nothing for me. The planets will fall apart, expanding like stars, but nothing means nothing so far as I can see. And we won't be together, but that doesn't matter because that doesn't mean that love don't last forever. Love don't, last forever. Love, don't last forever. That love don't last forever. Through every past, and every lost fortune, every regret, and every confusion, every empire that falls upon me, for every light that goes out of thee, through every iceberg and rock formation lost in a sea of desolation, through every mistake and victory, love will be you. Love will be me, and we won't be together, but that doesn't mean, that love don't last forever. Love don't last forever. Love, don't last forever. Love don't, last forever. Love will be you. Love will be me.

Wind 01:27
When the wind blows on and on that's where I'll find you, love. When the wind blows on and on That's where I'll find you. Woah. And I've got nothing left to give to you my friend tonight.

about

After a change in direction, John Landrie sought to explore expanding the idea of what could be classified as rock, pop, and punk which led him through a battle with a non-threatening tumor, a close encounter with roadkill, life in sales, the corporate world, and a brief stint on his roommate's brother's farm getting deeply lost in a desolate cornfield. What he found is that a villain is nothing more than a hero without a righteous cause, and he too wants to end the villainy as it were. Thus, he decided to put out one more EP before starting a new musical journey. Any money received for this EP will go to Not Today Productions for a studio space to record and produce musicians in Nebraska. He invites you to enjoy and let the light take you over.
