about

Flavor Packets is a peek into the downfall of our society. Inspired by the two opposing sides of current politics. Ripping the antennae off of your opponent, animal head offerings to the godlike leaders of each side. “I won’t waste in these palace walls” sings the chorus as a possible hope that there’s some way out of the burning garbage we live in. A Godzilla stomping guitar line tromps over a cricket like synth and lets out deep breaths on the chorus that tries to keep perspective with the oooo’s and aaah’s from the vocal melodies hooks.

lyrics

Animal heads they offer as comfortable as they do
As awful as cut antennae, I belong to the rest just as you
Handful of pills you swallow, Summer of your new blooms
As many as I can carry, out of breath just as you always preferred

I won’t waste in these palace walls, I couldn’t hear your curse your calls
Earth collapsed in these bathroom brawls, pockets of hair the weekends are lost

Factory meals you promised, faster than you approve
Quarterly sales and profits, cut them loose chemical fumes
A pain that arrives in your stomach, uncomfortable as you move
Cautious of veils you expect, no one’s wrong no one’s left to excuse

I won’t waste in these palace walls, I couldn’t hear your curse your calls
Earth collapsed in these bathroom brawls, pockets of hair the weekends are lost
