Balanced on a shelf A somewhat inviting, very different kind of hell To live without ever looking at your self You see life is so much simpler when it's balanced on a shelf That's been hung perfectly placed out in the sun Now look how you're admired by everyone Who sees you now they know your name But is it real? All your bad habits have become your life's appeal And then it's where did you go wrong Where did you go wrong? You're screaming where did you go wrong Where did you go wrong? Well first of all And worst of all You looked inside yourself, didn't care much for what you saw For what you saw Can you imagine? Did you ever play with dolls? You can protect your cotton heart behind a skin of porcelain walls You keep staring to your future Through these marvel lights they show Everything your never ever gonna have That's a giant pill but swallow if you can You'll start again You'll change your name And be reborn And begin to mend all that has been torn And then it's where did you go wrong Where did you go wrong? You're screaming where did you go wrong Where did you go wrong? Well first of all And worst of all You looked inside yourself, didn't care much for what you saw For what you saw

This record got me through a very hard point in my life... Trio knows how to connect to people in many ways. Glad i discovered them when i was 15. Its been quite the ride

so, i put some thought into this song and i'm 100% convinced dan wrote "balanced on a shelf" about matt and thats why it got culled from the official album. new matt songs suck. there's no feeling. there's no depth. there's no metaphor. dan is the better artist. matt has given up.

This video style holds up incredibly. Thanks!

06:50 Broken Wing It ain't hard to get lost When you forget where you come from Turn that dial to the right Push that pedal down Don't say goodbye Just for a drive Along for the ride It would be real nice just to fly away And escape everything But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing Now anything so easy It might not make you weak But it sure won't make me believe It's hell you say And it gets worse you know How many more days am I gonna wake up When there's no place I wanna go? If that sunshine's really gonna kill us all Why is everyday so cold? Why is everything so fucking cold? And never melts away It would be real nice just to fly away And escape everything But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing Now anything so easy It might not make you weak But it sure won't make me believe That's the top of your lungs And the bottom of your heart Is that the top of your lungs? Is that the bottom of your heart? Is that as deep as your heart goes? I understand the things that keep you up And I know that you still feel And I know your heart is hemorrhaging And needs some time to heal And now the traffic lights there on your street Flash yellow all the time And that mirror in your bathroom It looks cracked in the wrong light But walk out through your threshold Fill your lungs and move on down the stairs And let the things you love come back to you In time we'll all get there It would be real nice just to fly away And escape everything But little bird looks like you've got a broken wing Now anything so easy It might not make you weak But it sure won't make me believe

i really enjoy this EP. Matt and Dan are the best

This sucks, alkaline should've ended it awhile ago- spread too thin

A somewhat inviting, very different kind of hell ♥

Pocket Knife is just CLASSY

🤘💜

Broken wing.. Tremendo bros!!

I like you

Discàs

Still getting me through the day since 1998. Was working at McDonald's and a co-worker passed me a copy of their first album. Rest in peace J.P. you are still the coolest damn person I've ever met

I really, really, really miss you guys. Almost as much as I love these songs. Almost.

I love alkaline trio songs where matt sings, I can't stand dan's awful nasally voice, it really winds me up!

" I havent really made the most of this life" - being Sikbas backup singer :) buuurn. Your wasted Dan. Love this EP.

how could anyone not love this band? fucking fantastic...............fanfuckingtastic!!

"She came after me, with her parking lights"

I love the cover on this album

perfection <3 the only band that gets me through life

pocket knife should have been on the album

It seems like Dan's best songs always get pushed aside.

Poor little scene kids. Bashing the album, harkening for something that appeals directly to their sentiments. Alk3 is forever magnificent. These guys are the prototype for what we old school guys love. Critique all the shit emo bands you want. This is the real deal.

What DID you expect the Misfits? I LIKE all their music,has drunk feeling and reality.I know what they feel.

I don't really like this, it's too bland and almost sounds country for some reason.

Where can I get this EP?

I hope the Trio puts out another record that sounds more like this soon. I liked MSIT, but this has some extra energy that makes it better than the album for me.

people care about good songs, not 'themes'. this is rock, not lit class. but the best songs on the album!

Groovy

First song already blew away "My Shame is True". I love Alkaline with a passion, but that album didn't do it for me, sadly. I loved everything up until that album. :/

I think this was too long-winded. I think your show is an interesting and original but simple enough concept that it doesn't require much explanation. I think this would have worked better if you sound like you're in a hurry to finish the video before you're finished pooping. I love the idea but I think you need tighter scripting. I do think you have a lot of potential here for a series. Hope you do more.

I feel like Dan didn't truly get to shine on the album, but the 3 songs that he sings on this are amazing and i'm a little disappointed there wasn't more of him on the record

Their one of thos bands that don't make a bad song at all

love these versions

awesome!!

#FuckRussia

Makes me feel good inside. Love these Dan tracks.

Finally a new album - can't wait to have it. Thanks for this preview :-)

1:08 is the best part, all I have to say.

We used to do that too! :D

Love em. Great songs.

Hell yeah "Manos" and the Hand of Fate reference. That movie is horrible

How the fuck does broken wing and pocket knife not make the cut but kiss you to death does

finding unexpected things like this make me literally happy, couldn´t love more this band

You did a really nice job with this.

Wow....love it.
