Boy, oh boy. This thing is qu-al-it-y. This slick piece of art was designed by Jake himself and features the handsome mug of every Commitment. Order soon to see the exclusive misspelling of the word "needed" on the inside fold. That mistake will be fixed on the next run, so ya know, you wouldn't want to miss that.

lyrics
Discovered finch
I’ve evolved into loving you
You jumped, I flinched
You held my hand and you healed the bruise
A swipe of fate
To compensate for a lack of nerve
Alleviate
My shaking hands with the touch of yours
---
When trouble comes around
Her beauty quells the sounds
Of broken dignity and vows
Oh, my love the solace you allow
---
A better man
You insist that I deserve your heart
A loving friend
Honest words that never fall apart
Still terrified
By the odds of an average life
Side by side
Any path can keep the flame alight
---
When trouble comes around
Her beauty quells the sounds
Of broken dignity and vows
Oh, my love the solace you allow
When my soul is weighted down
And I can’t find my breath
She pulls my knees up off the ground
Loving you is so effortless
When trouble comes around
---
Ohh, darling it's scratching at the door again
Wonder if it's ever gonna end
It's swelling in my chest ain't
Giving it a rest I’m
Gonna need to take your words back in
