Comes in shrink-wrapped jewel case and includes a 6-panel insert with complete lyrics and original artwork by Joseph Gonzales.
Please email theband@thereadyaimfire.com if you would like your copy signed, in which case it would not be shrink-wrapped (unless you don't plan on opening it, in which case you should make sure to mention that so I can sign the shrink-wrap, but that's weird).
Also includes immediate download of 13-track album in your choice of 320k mp3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire.
I was fucked up in the back of a speeding car, lit up by the reds and blues that still haven't caught up to you. I was falling apart onstage, singing, "Don't worry about me, don't worry about me." "Oh, don't worry, I won't." The streets were just echoes of beauty like your taillights in the morning, but I just let it go, yeah, I'm a coward, I always do. "This better be the last time, alright? Our eyes won't align at all hours of the night. Are you alone? Are you alone? Yeah, neither am I." So it's mouthfuls of whatever alcohol I can find. I'm still waiting to be saved, I've been waiting all my life. I've been waiting all my life, and I swore I was fine but I lied, yeah, I lied, yeah, I lied. So goddamn, I can't forget your taste. Yeah, I can't get anywhere around this state without you there. But it still won't change a thing. No, this changes nothing. We'll both still let the phone ring til it sings, til it screams. So goddamn, I can't get around this place without seeing your face, without you there, without you.
