This 01:57
This these flies sitting on the wall my pride chooses me alone don't cry your bruises break my fall dark sky pours rain in little stones confide speak into my mind outside birds fly from my soul please abide I promise to unwind don't hide I'm climbing in this lull I'm alone and that's okay this is me looking for my way my fire grows in siren's hiss breathe free this guide hides in this

Meant 02:57
Meant If I meant to go it wasn't far you did not know the name inside my shame it opens empty doors and breaks my hungry fall I sit on lost walls breaking by year one lost so dear If I meant to go it was by fear and you can show the truth that breaks me down it closes doors silent my call I fall off broken walls holding me near if you can grow inside my eyes these broken bones hold me as I stand alone if you meant t to go it wasn't far and I did not know

Dare 02:16
Dare I am everything and you are nothing and she is nowhere they go inside sheep lie in a dream jumping fences clean over spirits lie this place breathes the sky only fools die alone this trip swallows me I see in your eye a darkened universe unknown a rainbow in the sky these trees bend alone leaves fall and turn no hope for lessons learned I am everything and you are opening and she is nowhere and they don't dare

The Best 02:13
The Best look at me crawling on the floor I'm so flat no can ignore look at me drowning in this mess you see me coming I am undressed I am falling in this void you can't destroy me I'm paranoid no one is thinking how is she less you must be joking I do confess I am not aging I work alone you can't be fading the deed is done no one's suppressing the demon lord you are not empty just paranoid and I am emptiness and everything that hasn't been that never will I break the test and this is me open this is the best

Run Me Down 04:09
Run Me Down you ran me down until I took all I had then you broke me open desperate and mad but I am stronger I see the light you had more to lose and I took flight you didn't deserve the good I gave got out when I could I am saved run me down and you are on my own I am in your face not a bit of good resting in my eye you are all I take and you are on my own I am full of hate I am underground I am rolling over hesitate I am Casanova I am run me down you ran me down until you took all I had then you broke me open desperate and mad but I am stronger I see the light

Aware of the Flaws aware, aware, aware the stars are flaws they come and stare beware, beware, beware no stones to throw take everything I own take care, take care, take care the sun does love the galaxy alone she shone and shone and shone the brightest one but keep them all no fair, no fair, no fair no love for shame no tongues to tie no where, no where, no where this life falls down no death compares don't die, don't die, don't die your time has come aware of all the flaws aware, aware, aware

Given 02:43
Given this in not everything and this is beginning and I am in disguise wearing my homemade smile this is not something and this is non-ending and you are inside growing my naked pride this is not nothing and this is my finding and I am under you breaking layers past their due this is something it's past my trust all is given no love's enough
9.
No Shame 03:07
No Shame I can't feel this no shame all flaws no words no plans no one to feel her ghost in sands my regards keep you at length I am sorrow I am strength I can feel this no home no name no shame
10.
Sport 02:06
Sport it's gonna be alright it's gonna be soul for control take my life have it all all alright no habits to conceal hold my arms I should be alright hold my hand take me as I am no soul for me no love no support takes these dreams are my sport it's gonna be alright it's gonna be soul for control take my life have it all all alright no habits to conceal hold my arms I should be alright hold my hand take me as I am no soul for me no love no support takes these dreams are my sport

Try 04:04
Try all of this motion in this glass holding steady sudden past and I feel holy insincere breathing faster hold me here I feel fury lies alone this is disaster a faulty clone I am careful break this stone solid master the war is won she sees everything in curtains memory in my brain confection love's lost infused infection all this commotion bend my will I am open hold me still calling after holy fear all this is broken on the phone breeding faster accident prone sunshine cupid dies alone love you're after skin off my bones and nothing taken dying texts and I can feel the pain injects

The Present 02:48
the Present soft daze in a bed of fire force waits in a funeral pyre hazy dreams in a pit alone high flown in a place unknown take these hands, take mine, my own hold me close take me alone you are gone in my release I can feel the evil beast it holds me down and breaks all hope no facts can break the wicked spell all reason flees I'm rest and then I leave my heart grows in my soul I am open in the present
14.
Hard 02:17
Hard it's hard to follow no one's on track no tears to wallow presence be told a long ride swinging she broke the mold love and feeling cannot switch makeshift practice bend into the fold a tough pill to swallow a heavy load but I am shaken and I am new I am hero soft rest become the few it's hard to follow no one's on track no tears to swallow presence be told

about

All songs written and recorded between January and March of 2016.

remastered by Nancy Grim Kells in 2020

All of these songs hold parts of me grieving and processing my mom's death They show a mixture of my desire to make simple folk songs while also making more experimental songs that are partially planned and partially improvised songs. A mesh of these things.
