Deadlines (Live at Brooklyn Steel)

[Verse 1: Will Toledo]

I never see the threat too soon

The blood on the bandage, the ghost in the room

Got a canvas as white as the moon

But when I see it at night, it's a sickening blue

I was thinking people never change

But there's a new taste of dread that I cannot explain

In the thoughts that make up my life

It reflected in others from time to time

Now I've got another question

And if we run out of time, can we make an exception?

Got a piece that needs completion

And I want to hear more from you

[Verse 2: Will Toledo]

He said, "I'd like to do this for a living

But I don't know how"

Wild, uncommercial

Sleeping on a leash

There was a predestined set of symbols ticking into place

A prom queen crowned in the background

Stepping out of frame

A pair of hands took me to your face

Your eyes held me

And they said-

[Chorus: Will Toledo]

Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?

Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?

Covered under your sleeve sometime

Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?

Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?

I'm alright, I was really in a state tonight

[Verse 3: Will Toledo]

I won't speak, I don't know what to say

I can hear in your prayers, it's the same things we pay for

Got a currency that you accept

If you want to exchange, we can try to connect

Give me the number to your room and leave the door on the latch

There are tigers in the jungle, there's a knife in the mattress

I don't think we broke the glass, but hell if I know

I never learned to dance, what the hell do I know?

[Bridge: Will Toledo & Ethan Ives]

I know I won't always love you like this

I swear I'm not always falling to bits

But, but, but in the hallway

The moment hits and the setup clicks like a safety

And you could hear a pin drop, feel it

I feel it

You'll feel it

You'll feel it

I feel it

You'll feel it

Feel it, feel it, feel it

Feel it (feel it)

Feel it (feel it)

Feel it (feel it)

Feel it (feel it)

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

Feel it

[Spoken: Will Toledo]

Alright. Thank you for joining us tonight

What a ride it has been

On stage, starting with the low end, on bass, Seth Dalby

Next to him on keyboards, New Yorker for some amount of years, Ben Roth

To my right, never been to New York in his life, but he can play a mean guitar, Ethan Ives

Behind me, they named this city after this guy. It's the king, the Duke of York, Andrew Katz. Andrew, play a little drums for us

Hey- hey-hey

Ba-da-da-da

Ba-da-da-da

Ba-da-da-da

Alright, on one, on two, on three, on four, four, four, four

[Chorus]

Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?

Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?

I was really in a state tonight

Am I, am I, am I, am I on your mind?

Is it, is it, is it, is it what you like?

I'm alright, put me up your sleeve, put me up your sleeve, put me up your sleeve sometime

Oh, temptation

I could take a piece from you

Oh, completion

Coming closer, let the candle burn right through

[Outro]

Let it burn right through

Let it burn right through

Let it burn right through

Let it burn right-

Feel it, feel it, feel it, feel it

Feel it, feel it, feel it, feel it

Feel it, feel it, feel it, feel it

Feel it, feel it

Thank you so much! That's every song that we know, so have a good night!
