You don't have anyone to tell you that you're wrong
all these people play along
they'll convince you you're so strong
You don't have anyone to help keep you in check
no one standing on your neck
no one here to make you sweat
You don't have anyone to help keep you in line
they'll all tell you that it's fine
as they worship at your shrine
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing in time,
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing in time,
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing.
There's nothing anyone can say to change your mind,
yeah, no matter what we find
you'll still stick to your design
You're so convinced that you have nothing left to learn
there's no sense in taking turns
there's no need to be concerned
Now there's no way to find out what you're gonna choose
You still have so much to prove
we still have so much to lose
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing in time,
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing in time,
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing in time,
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing in time,
It's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing, it's echoing

Patron Saint of switch blade fights
Feast day full of riots
No one’s gonna hold you down
Or try to keep you quiet
Speak in tongues without a sound
We’re not here to fuck around
Pulpit’s damned but so’s the crowd
Burn it to the fucking ground
They expect your apathy
Give them your compliance
Full of piss and vinegar
they’ll choke on your defiance
Speak in tongues without a sound
We’re not here to fuck around
Pulpit’s damned but so’s the crowd
Burn it to the fucking ground
Sacrifice autonomy
They’ll pay you for your silence
Not straight enough to fit the mold
I’m queer enough for violence
Speak in tongues without a sound
We’re not here to fuck around
Pulpit’s damned but so’s the crowd
Burn it to the fucking ground

What's a Title Anyway

Sorry to bother you, I just found out I can't be left alone
Sorry to bother you, I thought that I could do this on my own
Sorry the burden is yours, I hope that I'm not too much to bear
Tired not to need you but darling we both know that life isn't fair
Take me home, I don't want anyone else here to know
That all I feel is now collapsing inside of me, burning me endlessly
I'll be fine, in time
Ignore my needs, my crimes
If you've got a moment to spare, turns out there's so much I need to say
Told me you're here for me now, I'll just try not to push you away
How long can you wait for me, I don't know how I can let someone in
believe that you want me when all I can do is crawl out of my skin
Take me home, leave me to figure this out on my own
all I feel is now collapsing inside of me, burning me endlessly
I'll be fine, in time
Ignore my needs my crimes
Would it be okay
if I asked you to stay
I promise I'm trying to figure it out, I'm stuck in a spiral of fear and self doubt
and I
I might need your help
I might need your help
I might need your help
I just need your help

It's a Sad One, Folks

There’s only so many time you can die
The rest of your life you’re just
Trying to survive trying to take in those highs
Tell myself I’m alright
Even when I know it’s a lie
At least it was before you came along
Now I have found a place where I belong
I’m scared of losing focus
I’m scared of losing you
And so I’ll save this moment
If it’s the last thing I do
And I won’t look away this time
If I could have eternity
I’d spend it right here right now
Just you and me - you’re all I need
Feeling young and free -
I know I can’t promise that we’ll stay this way
We are just kids and we could lose it all one day
I’m scared of losing focus
I’m scared of losing you
And so I’ll save this moment
If it’s the last thing I do
And I won’t look away this time

Sad Boy Union Portland, Oregon
Influenced by their emo hearts and the punk music that came before them, Sad Boy Union formed to combat anger and sadness and bring people together. A true garage band, they debuted in Portland in January 2023. Since then they’ve played at bars around the city and rocked the Shady Pines Festival. They love 90s music, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and convincing friends to call in sick from work. ... more
