The band actually recorded their debut EP on a whim, alongside friend and engineer Andrew D’Angelo, when they were surprised with the news that a friend had been granted access to a studio for just a few days. With a total budget of $0, and only a week as a band under their belts, the group set out to record the best songs that they could in 3 days. After working ridiculous hours through the night, and to the next day whenever they could get in the studio, the 3 days were over and the EP was cut. Little did the band know, they were not even allowed to be in the studio that week. So through feelings of guilt and worry, they cleaned every bit of information of theirs from the studio computer, every crumb of Dominoes from the studio couch, and they were off with their entire EP on an hard drive in a backpack.
On March 18th, 2016 The Wrecks released their first single Favorite Liar.

Favorite Liar
The Wrecks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Went without you knowing, hope you're not too mad, I go a lot
I go a lot
I remember weekends, when we got too cool for them
And I remember thinking, maybe we could just pretend tonight
That just tonight
I wanna wake up feeling tired
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna lay there for a while
But that don't change that you're a liar, a liar
Hold yourself up higher and higher
I'mma find the things you wanna say
I've heard 'em all now and you're fake
You're such a liar
My favorite liar
I remember weekends, fighting over everything
And I can almost taste it, the bloody lip you left me with that night
Kiss me one last time
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna show you what it's like
I wanna be the one to show you what you're missing every night
Ooh, every night
It's too bad that you're a liar, a liar
Hold yourself up higher and higher
I'mma find the things you wanna say
I've heard 'em all now and you're fake
You're such a liar
My favorite liar
I got room to grow
I know I'm missing home, but
You think I'm alone and
I think you should know that
I've got pretty girls
Yeah, I've got pretty girls, takin' me home
I've got room to grow
I know I'm missing home, but
You think I'm alone and
I think you should know that
I've got pretty girls
Yeah, I've got pretty girls, takin' me home
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna lay there for a while
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna wake up feeling liked
It's just too bad that you're a liar, a liar
Catch me in your fire, your fire
'Cause I will never be less than what you want
I've got good news, I've had enough
To start a fire, a fire
Liar, a liar
Hold yourself up higher and higher
I'mma find the things you wanna say
I've heard 'em all now and you're fake
You're such a liar
My favorite liar
I remember waking up in Colorado
You said that it was raining
I tried to hide away but you said no
You made me love the rain
The Wrecks' song "Favorite Liar" tells the story of a tumultuous relationship that is clouded by lies and deceit. The singer remembers going out without his partner's knowledge and hoping that he won't get too mad as he does it frequently. He remembers the times they spent together and how they fought over everything. The singer is torn between his love for his partner and the realization that she is a liar, his "favorite liar." He wants to wake up with her, spend time together and show her what she's missing every night. However, he is frustrated that despite all this, she continues to lie to him. The lyrics are full of emotion and highlight the complexity of human relationships.

"Favorite Liar"
I remember going
Out to see the big rocks
Went without you knowing
Hope you're not too mad
I go a lot, I go a lot
I remember weekends
'fore we got too cool for them
And I remember thinking
Maybe we could just pretend tonight
For just tonight
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna wake up feeling tired
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna lay there for awhile
But that don't change that you're a liar, a liar
Hold yourself up higher and higher
Cuz I'm not buying the things you wanna say
I've heard 'em all now anyway
You're such a liar
My favorite liar
I remember weekends
Fighting over everything
I can almost taste it
The bloody lip you left me with that night
Kiss me one last time
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna show you what it's like
I wanna be the one to show you what
You're missing every night
Oh every night
Too bad that you're a liar, a liar
Hold yourself up higher and higher
Cuz I'm not buying the things you wanna say
I've heard 'em all now anyway
You're such a liar
My favorite liar
I've got room to grow
I know I'm missing home
But you think I'm alone
And I think you should know
That I've got pretty girls
Yeah, I've got pretty girls taking me home
[x2]
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna lay there for awhile
I wanna wake up with you
I wanna wake up feel alive
It's just too bad that you're a liar, a liar
Cast me into your fire, your fire
Cuz I will never be less than what you want
I've got good news I'm heading off
To start a fire, a fire
Liar, a liar
Hold yourself up higher and higher
Cuz I'm not buying the things you wanna say
I've heard 'em all now anyway
You're such a liar
My favorite liar
I remember waking up in Colorado
You said that it was raining
I tried to hide away, but you said no
You made me love the rain

Ok, just now seeing this, but like... that's almost exactly what it became. Look up the show All Night's trailer......... if you could send us next week's power ball numbers, that'd be great.
