'Standing Still' begins as though it is wearing pink fluffy slippers.......no sooner have the powdery thoughts risen than they are washed away with yet another avalanche of fearless wild abandon that has some sweet guitar moves, epileptic drum work and the recognisable raving oral obnoxiousness. It is a busy mix but not overly so and yet again SFOS gamble with disaster and somehow survive. Why play it safe when danger is so sexy? FUNGAL PUNK REVIEW

lyrics
STANDING STILL
you stand still - maintain worthless possessions
i'm moving forward with aggressive progression
and that's where the separation begins
i believe there is a direct correlation
between
your disappointment and unexpressed expectations
and that's something you should have figured out long ago
you're standin' still fuckin' waitin' on somethin'
i'm moving forward, from you i need nothing
this is why the separation exists
i believe there is a simple explanation for your
lack of dedication and your abrupt resignation
and that's something i should have figured out long ago
if you're standing still - things won't ever change
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid
if you're standing still - things will always be the same
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid
you're standing still - maintaining worthless possessions
i'm moving forward with aggressive progression
and this is why the separation exists
you're standing still fuckin' waiting on somethin'
i'm moving forward, from you i need nothing
you stand still
i will persist
if you're standing still - things will never change
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid
if you're standing still - things will always be the fucking same
you gotta keep movin' - don't be afraid
