Do you know how you're feeling? Is there any way that I can help? You don't have to fear the night-time if you're shut up in a shell... But still you're starting to scare me. Is it easy to tell? I want you to go far friend, I think it's time you got some help. But I'm afraid to make a move. Know that I'll never lie When I say that it's fun I just want you feel Better For Once No I won't say goodbye When the time starts to run I just want you to feel Better For Once... I may not know how you're feeling But man I'm gonna try You don't have to get all lonely You don't have to start to cry Because you're starting to scare me, Bet you already knew I'm here just like you're family And you're gonna make it through Know that I'll never lie When I say that it's fun I just want you feel Better For Once No I won't say goodbye When the time starts to run I just want you to feel Better For Once... Know that I'll never lie When I say that it's fun I just want you to feel Better for once Know that I won't start again You and Me the best of friends I just want you to feel, Better Again...

Disembark 03:57
Oh Captain, We've arrived in shallow seas. I suggest that we turn back now if alive we want to leave. But I'd never suggest... the thing that I want best.... Is for you to anchor here with me. And First Mate, I wish you best of days You were strong and you were subtle. You were happy and you were brave and I wish now you'd be with me here for the darkest of my days But here's where we part ways. As I disembark you sail away, hey, Into the endless ocean I'll be okay, hey, Sail on and don't look back for me. Sail on and don't look back for me. And Helmsman, Won't you steer this vessel true? But when you find the new world, Won't you build your life anew? Because I'll drag you down, so you better burn your ships. I want you to be happy, and make the most of it. As I disembark you sail away, hey, Into the endless ocean I'll be okay, hey, Sail on and don't look back for me. Sail on and don't look back for me. As I disembark you sail away, hey, Into the endless ocean I'll be okay, hey, Sail on and don't look back for me. Sail on and don't look back for me. Sail on and don't look back for me Sail on and don't look back for me Sail on and don't look back for me Sail on and don't look back for me Sail on and don't look back for me....

I've been wasting all my time I've been walking down the borderline Between my body and my head Expect the worst hope for the best Fear is building on my regrets Between the blankets and my bed Above the earth and all the stars Wondering how I got so far Wondering how I'll get back down But I flew too close to the sun, Now there's nowhere left to run I fall back to barren ground Tell your friends that Icarus Is Dead Grappling with the things he never said And as he's falling down He drops his thorny crown And he will never get back up again And Daedalus your cross to bare was just to know that you were there As your son fell from the sky And no there's nothing that you can do As Freedom Fooled your eager youth The Labyrinth so far behind Above the earth and all the stars Wondering how I got so far Wondering how I'll get back down But I flew too close to the sun, Now there's nowhere left to run I fall back to barren ground Tell your friends that Icarus Is Dead Grappling with the things he never said And as he's falling down He drops his thorny crown And he will never get back up again Tell your friends that Icarus Is Dead Grappling with the things he never said And as he's falling down He drops his thorny crown And he will never get back up again

They're not as clever as they would Like to think Your ship has problems, and yeah soon It's gonna sink I've seen crosses, and I've seen losses Now my grip is slipping away Here's the thing when all is said and done, There is nothing left to say I've crossed One Thousand Rivers Just to find my home And now that I've arrived I've found I am alone I've traveled many Countries here is what I see I've cackled while in shackles at the though of being free Why drink this water from my hand Why do you not understand? I got nothing, I'll be damned Nothing inside says yes I can I am saddened and then enraged I'm just a rat stuck in a cage Learning lessons day by day Living life, all the way I've crossed One Thousand Rivers Just to find my home And now that I've arrived I've found I am alone I've traveled many Countries here is what I see I've cackled while in shackles at the though of being free

Goodbye Ocean Town, Gonna find my way out of The Sound Gonna go and find my own way now Into the summer sky Into the autumn breeze My future comes with golden leaves But the wind is still now carrying me Effortless in flight But the winter's fast approaching Bringing bitter cold And as the days keep getting shorter The mountains are growing old I've had my fun at twenty one I'll be cut loose at twenty two I'll cease to be at twenty three and and twenty four I'm a memory no more Farewell mountain home, Gonna find my way out of the snow One day I'll stop feeling all alone When the whole world is right here And farewell doubt and pride you're the reason that I stayed behind It's finally time I said goodbye To all my troubles and my fears But the ocean tides are turning Bringing on the waves But I am surfing on the current I am not afraid I've had my fun at twenty one I'll be cut loose at twenty two I'll cease to be at twenty three and and twenty four I'm a memory no more I've had my fun at twenty one but I'm not through at twenty two I'll still be me at twenty three and at twenty four, I'm Not Worried Anymore.

Here's to you Mom and Dad for giving me the best you had Despite my consistent disappointments I will try and make this worth it to you The friends I met At the school I won't forget I am sorry for my needing talking but now it's time I start my walking And you may not know I've gone But I will miss you anyways no matter what goes on And this is not a Goodbye Song It's a see you soon after I've moved on This is not a farewell now I'll keep in touch from my new home town And here's to you, My memories You make it hard For me to see And here's to you My self doubt I'm finally gonna take you down Here's to you My love and joy I am not your play toy I am mine and mine alone I'm happy now I'm not going home And you may not know I've gone But I will miss you anyways no matter what goes on And this is not a Goodbye Song It's a see you soon after I've moved on This is not a farewell now I'll keep in touch from my new home town And this is not a Goodbye Song It's a see you soon after I've moved on This is not a farewell now I'll keep in touch from my new home town

Fruit Fly 02:44
Fruit Fly go away You're not wanted here today Find another garbage pail The hummingbird will chew you up Spit you out and you'll become Just another way to fail Can you see her crying eyes Can you see the works of art? The Van Goghs and DaVincis left right here? Can you see Harlem's broken heart? Can you see them painted gold? Can you see the living proof? Mozart's finest work can't hold a candle Next to the busker's broken tune Fruit Fly go away You're not wanted here today Find another garbage pail The hummingbird will chew you up Spit you out and you'll become Just another way to fail Fruit Fly go away You're not wanted here today Find another garbage pail The hummingbird will chew you up Spit you out and you'll become Just another way to fail

Remember when we looked upon the sky? Dreamed up lives in four years time Naturally, I woke up And I'm not sure exactly what to do Should I drift off or wake you too? Should I tell you goodbye? And the very smile upon my face Brings you sadness I can't explain Tears fall down I end another day I force a grin and say I'm okay But I'm not okay And do you remember Seeing me? In a puddle Of my own defeat? Do you remember giving chase To someone you thought that you could save? But things didn't work that way And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there And I don't know where I'm going But I'll know when I get there

Parasitic 05:42
I don't know How I'm different I don't know Why I need help I'm afraid To get consistent I'm afraid Of getting well Because my medicine's just a pill in the morning I'm a detriment I'll be gone without warning I'm a parasite on the hearts of my only friends So I'll play guitar and I'll sing without sorrow I just hope it's enough to get me to tomorrow I'm a parasite Maybe I can make amends I don't know why I'm secluded I don't know why I'm afraid I'm afraid I've got delusions I'm afraid I'll never change Because my medicine's just a pill in the morning I'm a detriment I'll be gone without warning I'm a parasite on the hearts of my only friends So I'll play guitar and I'll sing without sorrow I just hope it's enough to get me to tomorrow I'm a parasite Maybe I can make amends You don't know Why I'm trying You don't know I can change One day I'll climb Out of the chrysalis One day I'll climb One day I'll change.

about

Our new album, When I Get There, brings together the thoughts, ideas, and experiences we all share from growing up and finding our own way in the world. It is also a reminder that we're not doing it alone. This was the first album I recorded with a full band. I'd like to say thank you to everyone that helped make this happen.

Thank you to Dan Stevens, for letting us borrow your interface and a few microphones and for your continued support of Forever Fool throughout the years.

Thank you to Noah Feldman for the continued guidance and support throughout the making of this album and also for playing keys as well as the electric guitar on One Thousand Rivers.

Thank you to Jason, Pat, and Andre for inspiring the song 'Disembark' and inspiring me every day to continue to be myself. We'll all sail on together.

Thank you to my wonderful band mates, Jake, Avery, and Gabe for their fantastic contribution and performance not just on this album but on every live show we've played together. Additionally, thank you for giving me your very best even when I didn't deserve it.

Thank you to our parents, friends and families. Without you and your love/support, none of this would've ever been imaginable to any of us.

Lastly, thank YOU. Thank you for listening to us and giving us a chance to do what we love.

With the deepest love and gratitude,
-Drew Cathcart
