It is the first release to appear on the band's own Rearviewmirror Records Label.

lyrics

Don’t Ask Don’t Get

Heartbreak 101
Show me the ropes
Put my greatest regrets
Under the microscope

Pushing on summer
Crush on each other
We were just kids
And you said “One day I’ll read your palm…”
But you never did

Oh, you’ve fallen in love with somebody else
And I think I know him…
It was never enough, trying to cover it up
You were already gone

In our golden summer nights
Did I imagine?
In our faultless perfect days
Did we pretend?

I was too far behind you
But I had to find you
It’s now or it’s never
But when I found you, you were with him
And I lost you forever

Oh, you’ve fallen in love with somebody else
And I think I know him…
It was never enough, trying to cover it up
You were already gone
I’ve spent my life sinking
I’ve spent my life thinking
All of these thoughts away
But they’re here to stay
Have you learned your lesson yet?
You don’t ask don’t get

Lost in longing
Hooked on wanting
Pulled from somewhere, I don’t know
I won’t be there
You don’t need me
Soul leaves body
So enamoured

Stop telling me to stay
Stay

[Chorus]

Oh, you’ve fallen in love with somebody else
And I think I know him…
It was never enough, trying to cover it up
You were already gone
I’ve spent my life sinking
I’ve spent my life drinking
All of these thoughts away
But you’re here to stay
Have you learned your lesson yet?
You don’t ask don’t get
Never forget
You don’t ask don’t get
