[Verse 1: Mat Welsh]
I really don't know how to put into words, um
Being able to this and being able to make music and
This is the end of album number five and
15 years have passed since we decided this what we wanted to do
No matter how... I can't set on this kind of... this kind of future since we were kids
I don't know how to explain
That getting here and still being able to do it, is uh, is incredible
It's an ability I feel really honoured to do all the time, I love makin' music
And I love bein' in a band and bein' ablе to do this and
That's only possible because wе have people
Who enjoy what we do and I hope that
As long as we continue makin' music
And enjoy puttin' our thoughts and feelings and our
Emotions into music, we hope to provide somethin'
Or just do somethin', or you feel somethin'
That you let go of somethin'. Yknow music, like, it can do
Every kind of emotion, to remind you of somethin' from 20 years ago, it can make you feel excited and like givin' the most incredible moment
Um, yeah, well thanks to, thanks doesn't cut it
But we're here because you guys have been enabled that to be
Yeah thank you, and keep listenin'
[Verse 2: Lawrence 'Loz' Taylor]
This is a testament to who we are and how we feel, right now
To capture our thought and feeling, an outlet for our emotions
A release of the negative, and a harvesting of the positive
We hope this wraps around you
And does for you what it does for us
Open your ears and your mind
By in solace, you're being at one with yourself
And remember you are all you need
[Verse 3: Aaran Mckenzie]
Ehm, I didn't really didn't prepare anything to say right now
I just... hit the record button and hopefully this just comes out
In the most truthful and organic way possible
We are livin' our childhood dreams
I don't think many people can say that
The only reason, why we are on this journey
Is because of you guys and
You know it is, it is more, it's more than just travelling the world
And playing on stage and doing things for our own pleasure
We hope to instill a sense of belief that you can do these things
You can do anything you want if you just put your mind to it
But, we have such a short, precious amount of time on this Earth
And it is way too short to not be doing what you love doing
[Verse 4: Adam Savage]
I guess the main message I wanna send out and leave behind is gratitude
I hope you guys know just actually
How much you mean to us all like
This isn't just our band, it's all of yours as well
I know you know that, but it just needs to be said
I hope our music will live on after we're gone
It's bigger than this band, it always has been
Takin' up all our lifetime to create this band
And I just hope it finds someone who needs it and lives on through it
I hope you just how fuckin' crazy it is to be like
Livin' in the dream, we all grew up believing would come true
And all that matters to me because of you
I hope everyone in my life knows how much they mean to me
It's easy to go on through life without sayin' shit every day and
Not let the people know who are close to you just know
How grateful you are that they're by your side
I hope you know you are we
[Verse 5: Sean Long]
Just thank you so much, um, for listenin' to this album
And just thank you for givin' your attention to this band
You give us life, you give me life, you give me meaning
I feel like as soon as I speak, I make things simpler
Or just more simple than I intended
Like I have somethin' I wanna articulate and express
But just as soon as I try to say it
And get it out, it just turns to... dust
I mean so much more than I can say, its a really strange feeling
So... our thank you is to you
For understanding us
I think that is really special
You put me in a room and you ask me
What any of this shit means
I don't know what it means
But all know what it means
We all know damn fuckin' well
But we don't know how to explain it
And it's that part that means the most
I don't think anyone's really got the answers managed just...
Everyone's on their own little journey
Tryin' to figure shit out and
That's one thing I can put my finger on
The part of the iceberg we don't see
This unexplainable ocean of... I don't know, it's crazy and it's just crazy
So, um, it's not even finished
I'm tryin' to finish the album right now and I'm recordin'
Tryin' to finish it right now, it's not finished
It'll probably never get finished
But, anyway, it's everything it's...
