Review of The Days Ahead EP by Alex Miller, Decoy Music:

The first time I heard The Scene Aesthetic, I could bet I had the same experience as almost every one of their other longtime fans. “Beauty in the Breakdown” was such an innocently catchy, perfect track. The voices of Andrew de Torres and Eric Bowley melted together perfectly, like when you finally find that smoothie where your two favorite fruits finally make sense. They share two of the clearest and crispest voices and are continuously the highlight of the band.

Lyrics:

We’ve seen the worst times and the best
You pick me up when there’s nothing left
Let you call me at 3am when there’s no one else to listen
You laugh at all my stupid jokes
You come to me when you’re feeling hurt
I know I can count on you and you know you can count on me

Everybody’s got somewhere to go
Seems like everybody’s got a plan
Everybody’s got someone to hold
And a house with a lot of friends
Everybody’s got someone to love
And everybody’s got their place
Oh, I’m just glad that I have you
And I know that’s never gonna change

We can talk for days and never stop
Drive around singing funny love songs
You can tell me all the things that I never want to tell myself
You always to know know just what to say
to bring a shine to any ordinary day
Always seem to walk in when everyone is walking out

Drive for hours passing every state line
A million shows and a million different people
Dancing now like no one is around
Cause we don’t really give a damn
You know the song to my heart and you sing it
Back to me when I’ve forgotten all the words
You know me better than I’ve ever known myself
Somehow we just work

Lyrics:

There’s something different in your smile today
Captures me so helplessly, hope it never fades
and when the sun shines on your skin
the heart in me starts caving in
there’s something different in your smile today

There’s something about the way you touch my hand
Breaks me down and makes me want to be a better man
Every time you say my name I lose myself entirely
There’s new about you every day
That makes me love you

A little bit more
A little bit better
A little more yours every day that we’re together
A little bit crazy
A little bit stupid
My heart was the target and
I was shot my cupid

The second I wake up I think of you
Paint a picture in my mind of what I want to do
Grab my keys and take my car
And drive until we see the stars
Every day and night I spend with you

When we get all old and grey
Our kids are gone
Our hearing fades
Still I’ll never lose this spark
I’ll always find a way

Lyrics:

The first time we met it felt like fireworks
The perks of the Midwest now’ve suddenly changed
The whole world passes by on a string I am tied
You’re holding the can on the opposite side
Now lets open the door
Take a breath of fresh air
That summer was kind to us both
Now its time to be strong

You came to me opened your heart as we said hello
A year has passed and now you’re gone, I begged you not to go
You said to me there’s nothing here for me to hold on to
So darling let me be the one that holds on to you

No matter how many times I say you’re beautiful
You’ll act as if I’m telling a lie
All the phone calls we’ve made left us frail its a shame
Like two papers hearts riding on a paper train
Red-eye flights, summer drives, shooting stars in the sky
Is it enough to suffice, if you can’t even trust me?

You came to me opened your heart as we said hello
A year has passed and now you’re gone, I begged you not to go
You said to me there’s nothing here for me to hold on to
So darling let me be the one that holds on to you

Where has our love gone now that we’re apart
Is it lying dormant or is it just hiding in the darkest depths of our hearts
There is nothing that I need to prove
I’ve done, all that I can, to get through to you

Lyrics:

We’ve been waiting on a sure sign
Counting down the hours
Life is passing by one day at a time
If we could look away
And see the light on the other side
It takes feeling so small to stop and realize
With a little bit of patience
A little bit of time
We’re the Makers of our days and we’ll decide

If we could walk away
We’d be living up north
On the shores each Sunday
Find our place
We’d be there
If we could leave this state
Build a cabin way up high in the tallest mountains
Find some peace
Make do on our own
When we’ve finally found home

You’ve been feeling like an anchor so alone
At the bottom of the ocean, everybody’s long since sailed back home
I’ve been waiting for a chance to come your way
Lead us somewhere safe with the path that I have made

There’s no distance that I wouldn’t cross
To make you feel a little less alone
There is nothing that I wouldn’t do
To prove to you that I can make us whole

We could live forever building castles out of sand
Holding onto something that may never last
I’d rather live forever knowing that at least we took this chance
So let the tide roll in and take away these plans

Lyrics:

Can we pretend
That there’s an ocean open wide, uncharted, deep and so alive
And with our love
We could set sail leaving all our problems far behind
Would you believe me if I said everything’s fine
Would you climb in my ship and sail away with me tonight

Hold me close
Hold me close
Darling tell me
Do you miss me like I miss you?
Let’s float away
Float away
Don’t be scared to take my hand
Cause every risk you take with me is one that you won’t take alone

Will this transcend,
Everything that we’ve ever learned or thought we knew?
The right or wrong
So unaware, we’ve held the answers all along
But this old ship ain’t sinking yet
Captain’s calling all hands on deck
So pull that heavy anchor up
I’ve got our compass firm in hand
We’ll use the stars to chart our course and take us far away from here

Do you trust me in the same way I trust you
Would you leave if you had the chance to
Set off to be free cause you know we had to
Don’t let these troubled tides flood your peace of mind
The storm will calm if you hold on tightly
Raise your sail cause it’s our time

Lyrics:

I got your letter it’s been sitting on my dresser
It’s so good to finally hear from you
I always laugh when I think about the past
Troublemakers with nothing to lose
I never thought my life would be like this
I keep a running count of all the things I’ve grown to miss
I’m sorry about your struggles while you’re far from home
Just remember: it gets better, you are not alone

Never gonna say what you mean
If you can’t look me in the eyes
Everything is gonna be alright
Just don’t look back
Keep your head up in the sky
Your heart is in good hands
Everything is gonna be just fine

I just got home, another day, another problem
And I’m glad to finally hear from you
Seems like the days turn into months when I’m away
And now I’m wondering what I’m gonna do
I never thought my life would be like this
Every day seems like a record that just skips and skips
Your letter’s proven to be worth it’s weight in gold
I’ll just remember: it gets better and I’m not alone

Never gonna say what I mean
If I can’t look you in the eyes
Everything is gonna be alright
I won’t look back
Keep my head up in the sky
My heart is in good hands
Everything is gonna be just fine

Here I am falling apart
Don’t know what else I can do
So here’s a letter I wrote
Hope to hear back from you soon

Lyrics:

Got the words all in my mouth but I can’t seem to let them out
Regardless of all I want to say
Have my photos here at hand with every memory in tact
Holding tight so that they can’t escape
Just tell me that you’re proud and you’ll always be around
Despite of anything that comes between us
I need to hear you say that when I leave this state
That our love will overcome all of our demons

I need some reassurance
Motivation to pursue this
I’m walking out now
Please don’t forget me

I’m not holding up, it’s breaking me down
To know that I’m leaving and I won’t be around
I’m missing your voice, your beautiful smile
But I feel better knowing that I’ll be with you in the days ahead

I’ve been knocking on the sky and I’ve been listening for the sound
Another day, another chapter, another chance to get it right
Yeah, I’ve been hoping for a sign, something true and so alive
To resonate the answers that I’m needing

Here’s to the best years that I’ve never known
I’ll know you’ll be there every step of the way
I’ve never been this scared before
But when I think about the love I’ve felt with you
Every doubt just fades away
