Shatter 04:14
I've replaced all my shame, a will to give away Bitter minds light a flame. The same as yesterday So claim me and change me or blind me eyes (I'm so happy) I'm hung from the ceiling for piece of mind Shattered hands held in place learn to celebrate A bleeding heart that took the blame waits to be replaced So claim me and change me or blind me eyes (I'm so happy) I'm hung from the ceiling for piece of mind Find it out for yourself

Embrace 03:32 video
Hold me under and tell the truth Of what I'd say and what I'd do Embrace my honesty for a chance to be a head towards heaven And it's always something holding me down All for nothing, face in the crowd Holding this in Breaking you down for nothing at all I will never live this again
3.
What happens when we fade away? A bastard, a way to play the game I'm sinking and grinding teeth To relive what's breaking me What have they done to you? A war I was born to lose A shadow in the way, of what the path has paved I'm Sinking, I'm wearing thin
4.
In My Eyes 04:45
Loving, hating, losing this war Always changing the lies I wore Give me a reason to see… What you need belongs to me I can't forgive the way it seems Give me a reason to see Waiting, crushing, the wave takes me Show me a way to see the light To live with a head held high Now I am on my way to heaven

about

Written in just 2–3 practices and recorded just after getting home from a summer show in Texas, “Head Toward Heaven” marks a change in the direction of Anxious Arms as a whole.

While their first two EPs were heavily influenced by the DIY Emo scene they started out in, for this record, Anxious Arms is committed to making a heavy record that pulls in various, heavy influences with producer, Josh Unitt (ex- Wolf and Bear). The band took more freedom on the recording than before, like recording drums and bass live in a room together.

"Head Toward Heaven" is influenced by heavy 90's bands like Type O Negative, Crowbar, Tad and Alice in Chains—alongside modern acts such as: Narrow Head, Code Orange, Every Time I Die, and local Sacramento band, Chrome Ghost.
