Great review of our new EP.
The meaning behind this has more meaning than most think….
Sleepy Eyes refers to being overwhelmed with hardships and being overworked in life. I ran into a period of my life where I had sleepy eyes all of the time because I couldn’t sleep at night. I had so much stuff running through my head, that I couldn’t sleep if I wanted to. I even had to resort to sleeping pills to fall asleep at times. We can all relate to having so much stuff run through our head at night that we can’t sleep. That is sleepy eyes.
Bony Knees refers to obviously my bony knees. I’m a skinny dude and it was something that stuck out to some people I know. I went through depression in 2011 and decided to put the term “bony knees” in our song “Floorboards.” It represents getting off of your knees and standing on your own two feet in a mental way. I’m sure we can all relate to being down and out. This is what this refers to.
So it has deeper meaning than most think. I wouldn’t put something meaningless in a song. :)
thanks for asking
