"Through the Pines" Spaced face, No taste Staring out, caring not And no glimpse of Grace But hey No thoughts, no breaks Another night not feeling right And your filled with hate But hey (Chorus) And you ought You ought to know When you feel alone I'm right there by your side And by your side I mean right behind You through the pines Stalking every step in the night

Popping pills Life's not real Popping pills Pop punk kills And emo feels And popping pills Popping pills No more feel Popping pills Pop pop kill Life stands still And popping pills Popping pills Floor tom fills Popping pills Writing wills And paying bills And popping pills

Let me explain this difficult girl Talked about the moon and the earth I was blinded fell in love with her We talked about God and its still going on And we talked with our delicate words And we'd run around in circles and laugh Shoulda been careful she talked to the woods Asked the trees what they thought of me About six years later I'd come home from work And the lights were all out in our house A candle flickered from some room beyond And there was chanting to some god Some god named Amaan And then I saw it I saw it appear it burst right out into flesh A dark character was standing over her A sworn drawn in his clawed hands So I'm gonna tell you a story. This one time I walked into my house and immediately slipped on a giant pile of flowers. See my girlfriend she was really romantic, always trying to get me to try out some new thing she read in some magazine. So like any other day that I walk into a situation like this I'm a nice guy and play along but see this time was different. She always lit candles but the kind of candles that you would see in the holiday section of Kohl's not the long tapers like in a fancy restaurant, but this time there were tapers all over the floor. She had melted the wax right into the ground. I wasn't thrilled of the idea of having to clean it up but hey who cares when it comes to this. I followed the trail of rose petals into our bathroom where I found the bath already drawn. She had used some kind of bath bomb that turned the color dark red, like a deep vermillion. I guess I'm a little OCD cause all I could think of was it staining the tub then all of a sudden my girlfriend jumped out of the tub, bare ass naked. But the sticky, warm red clinging to her body. She opened her mouth AND THEN I APPEARED!

You broke my heart In this lonely place I'm the only one in the human race And its true with you Theres nothing we can do. Nothings without a doubt Just a thing to think about Just think about it think about it One more time Till nothings without a doubt Just stop and think out Think about it Think about it Close your eyes And think without a doubt Something to think about

about

This album is an ode to a surf rock band that lived a life to short, performing only one show before its premature death. Griffin Driskell played bass and sang in the original band by the same name as the album, Hex Girlfriend, along with fellow musicians Camilo Herrera Matiz (Guitar/Vocals), Roddy Davis (Guitar), and Corey Gonsalves (Drums). Driskell co-wrote the original music in Spring 2015, but after the death of Hex Girlfriend, the music was lost. A year later, Driskell resurrected and reanimated the tunes from the grave, reworked and rewrote the songs from the ground up, giving them new life in the light of witchcraft and living in suburbia. All songs, except "Suburban Youth" the originally planned single, received nearly complete makeovers. Hex Girlfriend EP was released on the anniversary of the first, last, and only show of Hex Girlfriend.
