Keep on feeding me line I’m just getting used to the concept of time Give me back a couple years I wasn’t even done with those yet and now I’m here But of course lets not be ridiculous now They say a grown man doesn’t complain But god dammit how I’d love to have a drink Like we used to when we didn’t have half our brains god dammit how I’d love to have a drink Like we used to when we didn’t have half our brains I wanna go deep into the pine trees With a bottle of something fine and my guitar And I want all my old friends to find me So we can dance the night away Under those bright New England stars Wouldn’t you love to take a plane Back through memory lane just for a few If I could run back in time I’d be an olympic sprinter Chasing after you Come on we gotta go back into the woods Get ourselves up to no damn good and make a lot of noise Lets build a fire the size of the tallest building in Dubai Because boys will always be boys Wouldn’t you love to take a plane Back through memory lane just for a few If I could run back in time I’d be an olympic sprinter Chasing after you I’ve been falling farther and farther away From everything I’ve known and loved I’ve become the astronaut that stepped outside for the view And found myself drifting off Wouldn’t you love to take a plane Back through memory lane just for a few If I could run back in time I’d be an olympic sprinter Chasing after you Keep on feeding me line I’m just getting used to the concept of time Give me back a couple years I wasn’t even done with those yet and now I’m here

Like a Boy 02:55
When she steps into a room Even the janitor drops his broom Oh she’s got features like you wouldn’t believe I’d build a bridge across the sea Just to watch her cross the street Smile and wave to me And if she turns her back and leaves And I can see her heart recede I feel as useless as a winter coat On a San Diego beach Oh she’s got character for days And if she stares at you too long You just might start to bleed Darling don’t take away My only source of joy I can’t apologize for how many times I’ve acted like a boy But I’ve been learning a bit From every incident And I swear someday I’m gonna be damn near perfect for you So if you see her passing by And make it past just saying “Hi” know you’re more fortunate than 99% of other guys Oh you’ve got luck on your side Just don’t go wasting her time Stand up tall, say what you mean If you need some pointers Don’t come to me There’s no doubt that I’ll come out With something totally obscene Oh I’m real good like that you see I’ll give her every single reason to flee Darling don’t take away My only source of joy I can’t apologize for how many times I’ve acted like a boy But I’ve been learning a bit From every incident And I swear someday I’m gonna be damn near perfect for you

I’ve been hanging around This town for so long My feet are stuck to the ground I’ve been screaming out Behind these walls and I’m not making a sound I need out I’m about to lose Control of my brain It feels so damn good I’m about to lose Control of my brain It feels so damn good I’ve been falling down And this time I can’t find The strength to pick up myself I’ve been having my doubts About wether or not My train is coming through town I’m about to lose Control of my brain It feels so damn good I’m about to lose Control of my brain It feels so damn good Now will you leave me When you find out My ship is sinking now I think my clock must be slow No matter how hard I try I’m always late to the show There’s no one here that I know And every time I try to talk I end up in a choke I’m about to tell someone off I can feel it heating up in my chest Someone’s about to get the best of me You ain’t gonna like me like this I insist you resist the urge Encouraging my will to submit I’m about to lose Control of my brain It feels so damn good I’m about to lose Control of my brain It feels so damn good Now will you leave me When you find out My ship is sinking now

Oh my woman’s got a dark dress on She’s afraid of the night Even more scared of the dawn She prays it won’t take long to find the other side Thunder’s been coming from her own front lawn She’s seen too many rights Get turned into wrongs She prays it won’t take long to find the other side And I don’t mean to be a bother miss but can I have a little more time? I’ve barely had but a taste of your face and I know you’re only waiting in line to fly Oh, you’re making me stray from the program Ain’t no one holding my hand now If only I could create myself a world Where this could all work out Nails on a chalkboard A chainsaw on rocks Sandpaper to a razor-blade Is the soundtrack to her thoughts A million little accidents Car crashes and ambulances Pulverize the inside of her mind And I don’t mean to be a bother miss but can I have a little more time? I’ve barely had but a taste of your face and I know you’re only waiting in line to fly Oh, you’re making me stray from the program Ain’t no one holding my hand now If only I could create myself a world Where this would all work out Oh my woman’s got a dark dress on And I don’t mean to be a bother miss, and I know you’re only waiting in line to fly

Someone’s going into the fire tonight Someone’s going into the fire tonight Help me out of this one my love Help me out of this one my love If I could be on my way I swear I wouldn’t beg, Fight, borrow or steal I’ll go back from where I came We could arrange some sort of bargain or deal I can see me slipping off of this cliff tonight I can see me slipping off of this cliff tonight Help me out of this one my love Help me out of this one my love Captain going down with the ship tonight Captain going down with the ship tonight Help me out of this one my love Help me out of this one my love If I could be on my way I swear I wouldn’t beg, Fight, borrow or steal I’ll go back from where I came We could arrange some sort of bargain or deal My will ain’t strong as it used to be The nighttime’s taken ahold of me And everybody ‘round me’s watching just to see exactly how bad I can hurt myself This buildings going down to the ground tonight This buildings going down to the ground tonight Help me out of this one my love Help me out of this one my love Plane’s going straight to the bottom of the lake Plane’s going straight to the bottom of the lake Help me out of this one my love Help me out of this one my love If I could be on my way I swear I wouldn’t beg, Fight, borrow or steal I’ll go back from where I came We could arrange some sort of bargain or deal Bloods falling from my fist and there’s a shattered salt shaker on the table again A quick flick of the wrist A shit decision could’ve cost me my closest friend And in the morning when I wake surprised and grateful that I’m not dead I go and do it again My will ain’t strong as it used to be The nighttime’s taken ahold of me And everybody ‘round me’s watching just to see Just to see exactly how bad I can hurt myself I’m going into the fire tonight I’m going into the fire tonight Can’t help me out of this one No can’t me out of this I wish I could’ve listened but its too late now I’m going head first Into a night on the town

It’s been looking not so good for a while now Been taking all my nights with a glass of the good stuff Oh my god When did this ride come to an end? I’ve been on a balance beam On a day to day basis Skin’s got no color All my fruits gone tasteless Oh my love When did we stop being good friends? Can’t we go back to that moment in time You looked at me last With your loving eyes and I said you looked beautiful You said you were glad you’re mine Glad you’re mine Now its been a chore Not to be downright bored with my work, Hell staying up has been difficult enough People talk, I don’t listen Not on purpose at least Im pretty sure that inside I might still be asleep And Ive been dodging every bullet I can I’m still coming up looking like a half eaten man Where did I go wrong? Let me string you along Somebody shake me awake When the bad weathers gone

On the Loose 05:03
Whoa oh oh Honey don’t stop now I said Whoa oh oh Sugar darlin’ don’t slow down We got a lot to learn about each other And we ain’t got much time We got a lot to learn about each other I won’t wast yours don’t waste mine Sugar darlin’ theres a killer on the loose tonight and he’s been taking lovers lives underneath the moonlight Let me be your bodyguard I’ll keep you safe until the sun comes up Oh honey darlin’ theres a killer on the loose tonight and he’s been taking off with any pretty thing that he likes Stay by my side I’ll keep you safe until you see the light There ain’t nothing for us out there to hell with the rest of the world Let em’ tangle up their own hair We got our love to get uncurled Whatever situation is blazing outside’s got nothing to do with us and as far as I’m concerned all that matters tonight is that we take advantage of our lust Sugar darlin’ theres a killer on the loose tonight and he’s been taking lovers lives underneath the moonlight Let me be your bodyguard I’ll keep you safe until the sun comes up Oh honey darlin’ theres a killer on the loose tonight and he’s been taking off with any pretty thing that he likes Stay by my side I’ll keep you safe until you see the light Whoa oh oh Pull down the shades and lock the door Whoa oh oh Tell me everything then tell me more We got a lot to learn about each other And we ain’t got much time We got a lot to learn about each other I won’t wast yours don’t waste mine Sugar darlin’ theres a killer on the loose tonight and he’s been taking lovers lives underneath the moonlight Let me be your bodyguard I’ll keep you safe until the sun comes up Oh honey darlin’ theres a killer on the loose tonight and they’ve been saying that he’s got the same face as mine Stay by my side I’ll keep you safe until you see the light

Well if its all the same I think I’d like to pass the blame I wanna bottle it down Why you wanna figure me out? Come on lets turn it back around This road only goes one way and its straight out of town Don’t go giving up now How am I supposed to figure it out? You know, I’ve always had a problem with seeing things directly in front of me I’m pretty sure that I’m going blind but that don’t give me no reason no that don’t give me no reason to tear you apart like that Well if it’s all the same I think I’d like to pick up the check and leave we’ve done enough damage here to leave these people busy for weeks What do you say we sneak out tonight? We’ll meet up at the park at a quarter to midnight Play king and queen of the world for a very short moment in time You know, I’ve always had a problem with seeing things directly in front of me I’m pretty sure that I’m going blind but that don’t give me no reason no that don’t give me no reason to tear you apart like that So if it’s all the same I think I’ve had enough of this game Is there a button somewhere I can push to start it all over again?

Always 03:23
I don’t care wether you’re a corner store creep or you’re a petty thief Is your luck hanging out on the line? Let it be known you can find always find hope in the words that I write. And if you find yourself down in the dirt you can’t find any worth In the space right behind your eyes Let the record show you can take yourself home in the words that I write Because I know you’ve got a heavy load already you’ve been doing all you can to keep your hand steady and the last thing that I want to do is break you down even more It’s such a waste of time waiting in the long lines just to hear the wrong lines over again Its just a waste of time taking anything besides exactly what you want to take away from life So if you find yourself sinking, you can’t stay afloat and the boat you rode in on blown way off coast let these few and simple chords guide you back to the shore Because I know you’ve got a heavy load already you’ve been doing all you can to keep your hand steady and the last thing that I want to do is break you down even more All of us should meet up and have one hell of a party All of us should meet up and have one hell of a damn good time Because I know you’ve got a heavy load already you’ve been doing all you can to keep your hand steady and the last thing that I want to do is break you down even more

We danced on broken glass Skipped hand in hand on the overpass We shot into the distance Kissing every single star along the way Now what am I to say? You're about to toss me anyway But let me state my case I know to you I'm only pocket change Trust me I've got grace And I think that you might see it if you stay Oh girl I know I'm being rude I'm naturally a fool Everything I said back there, I never meant to aim at you Just keep me for one more night I swear I'll make it up ten-fold to you Ten-fold to you.

about

This album is dedicated to the lives and memories of Joshua Schaefer and Gregory Ouellette. Two great people that I had the honor of calling friends. Either of these men would have made you smile on your worst day.

Pine Tree Riot is a direct reaction to the uncontrollable world around us. Change comes in the blink of an eye and leaves no stone un-turned. The best we can do is tighten up our laces and face forward, taking with us all that we've been through and all that we know, readily awaiting what the next turn will bring.

about

Addison Chase Boston, Massachusetts

Addison Chase cut his teeth playing his guitar and singing for friends around campfires in rural New Hampshire. They liked his music so much that he started playing at the local bar and was soon packing it wall to wall with people eager to hear the songs he wrote, dancing on tables, on the bar, and everywhere in between. ... more
