Recorded at the Fort Hazel house while its residents were away for a weekend. This song was one that I played at nearly every show for a year. It was not a crowd pleaser, but I really like the way that it moves with Jake's drumming.
lyrics
The Rebuilt
You'd find a bitter pill among all alliances, honest.
Bridge, train, bitch and begin. You've banked on the barricades and built new.
You're own eclectics stand among the rebuilt, but you are neither.
You are neither.
It's time now to be gone, for us for now, then the telephone rings.
