Fast forward about a decade and I met Anthony working at a Guitar Store. We started a band together. For about six months we tried out singers to no avail until one day Anthony told me to suck it up and just sing for the damn band already. We grinded as a local band for years and although we managed to pack out our local venue, the music industry never caught onto us. After our last show, Anthony sold his drum set and told me he wanted to just play acoustic stuff from now on. So we charged our credit cards and flew across the country to make a full length record. That record is called Clouded (Deluxe Edition) and it changed our lives. 2016 comes around and we get back into the studio with a batch of songs totally unlike our first record. That record is called Low Tides.
And so here we are today. Our producer Ryan Hadlock (The Lumineers, Vance Joy) helped us explore unique instrumentation. I hate it when bands tell you their new record is their “best shit yet” or “more mature”. That’s not for them to decide, it’s for the listener. And so I leave you with our record Petaluma. It’s our best shit yet

Puppy Love
This Wild Life Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I show up late in this broke down car of mine
To pick you up and take you out
We make the best of our short time
And though it's not enough you assure me that it's fine
With windows down let's go for a ride
Cause when I mess up, you never give up your love
And all I know that's true, is just how much I miss you
Hold up, you're running away
I swear I told ya, it gets better today
And all I know that's true, is just how much I love you
You know you never seem to mind
When I get off late and wanna stay in for the night
We'll watch some Sunny it'll be alright
And when my world is upside down
You're always planted firmly, so firmly on the ground
We'll lay together without a sound

The second verse touches on the singer's emotional insecurities, highlighting the comfort they find in their partner's stability and presence.

You know you never seem to mind
You are never bothered by my shortcomings
When I show up late in this broke down car of mine
You are accepting of me even when I am not at my best
To pick you up and take you out
Even though I do not have much to offer, you still want to spend time with me
We make the best of our short time
We try to enjoy each other's company as much as possible
And though it's not enough you assure me that it's fine
Even though our time together is limited, you still appreciate and value it
With windows down let's go for a ride
Let us enjoy the simple pleasures in life together
Cause when I mess up, you never give up your love
Even when I make mistakes, you continue to love me unconditionally
Yeah I'm a fuck up, but you swear I'm enough
Although I may be flawed, you believe that I am still worthy of love
And all I know that's true, is just how much I miss you
I am reminded of how much I miss being with you
Hold up, you're running away
I sense that you may be pulling away from me
I swear I told ya, it gets better today
I will do whatever it takes to make our relationship work and improve
And all I know that's true, is just how much I love you
Above all else, I know that my love for you is real and unwavering
When I get off late and wanna stay in for the night
Sometimes I am too tired to go out, and just want to spend a quiet evening in with you
We'll watch some Sunny it'll be alright
We will find solace in each other's company and enjoy a favorite TV show together
And when my world is upside down
Even when everything around me is chaotic and stressful
You're always planted firmly, so firmly on the ground
You are my rock, keeping me grounded and stable during difficult times
We'll lay together without a sound
We find comfort in the silence of our togetherness

My dog died today. She's 6, nearly 7. I usually come home once a month because my home is far away from my college and before i went back, i told her to wait for me as she suffered beautifully with her bony legs and cloudy, blurry eyes. That was a month ago and i just got went back home yesterday, i went back today and my mom just told me that she's now gone. I'm glad she waited for me to come home before she's say goodbye. :'(

sorry for your loss. I first heard this song in concert 16 days after my 4yr old Doberman had to suddenly be put down. It's a beautiful song
