lyrics

Eat words because you feel you must;
what was once called trust
would be better called tragedy.
Blind eye to the pain inside
still sucks the pain away.

Hate life as a constant fight.
The challenge might just tear you down.
The downside is the only side.
Let's think the truth away.

And when the colors fade…

Broken seam on a foolish dream.
A conscious stream drags you to see:
an empty heart is smashed apart
by oppressive air of greed.

Breathe deep in a trouble sleep;
a breath can keep you fastened down.
Hold fast to ties that hate to bind;
don't let your mind run free.

And when the slate is clean,
echoes, all that's heard;
reflections, all that's seen.

That life's more than it seems,
to me, that seems to be self-evident.
That life is more than pain—
embrace the grey.
That life's a constant change,
time for time, an even trade,
that life is more than hate—
embrace the grey
and everything goes away.

And when the colors fade,
everything goes grey.

about

whatever... Cleveland, Ohio

whatever... was a Cleveland band in the 1990s. We opened for lots of great acts (e.g., Jawbox, Bosstones, Samiam) and even had a following of our own. Really, if you went to a Cleveland punk show in the mid-'90s, chances are pretty good you saw us. This is the stuff we were playing early on.

You can also hit either of the below links to buy the band's final album, Youngsters, on Amazon or iTunes. ... more
