Spells 02:58
I don't really know you. I don't think I need to. All I have has come true wishing on a Blue Moon. Maybe I'm mistaking glory for the taking. The war inside my grey brain makes me do such strange things. I'm not who ya see, what you think I am. I'm fine to believe this whole thing is my command. Some things happen to you, others just confuse you. I'm sorry for the misuse, a spell that I continue to speak.

Other 02:57
Maybe I've been searching for you. Searching for my friend. Someone to laugh and cry with. To hold my hand. I've been trying so hard to separate myself from them. Couldn't begin to comprehend the way it all will end. Surely I've become a man now I can do my part. Figure out a way to distract my broken heart. I can't explain your hesitation. I set myself apart. The simple pleasure in passing moments. How did we get this far?

Splint 03:01
You wait for a call it's not life. Not at all. Decide not to eat and forget how to breathe. I've seen you some days turn this grief into grace. And you share what you own, you put your love in my palm. So now that you tried it you might never go back home. You laughed when you said that we should just die here on the road. Sometimes you might speak about shadows of wings and the great hurricane inside everything. The paint never dries if you wait for a sign. Perfect fit in a lock even when timings off. But you notice when I'm honest. But you promised some context coming soon. I don't sleep much. Don't reach out enough. Need to knock down the walls in my room.

Cessation 02:32
So long my love I can't afford to imply that I might be what you need. How far have I come from my misfortune? Not nearly enough. As you can see. I'm on the lawn past noon the sun is looming. I take a drag and catch myself counting in between. Just want it to stop. Slow down. Give up. I'm winning cause I know why you care.
5.
Open 03:26
I've been feeling lost. Searching for an exit. Worried that my thoughts are gonna win. I don't know who to trust or why I tried to fix it. Been waiting for the next one to begin. All I want is to be loved. I don't think I'm the only one. I just move around cause I don't know how to settle. I'll never marry anybody else. So when you're skipping town it's better to be careful. A little time away could do you well. This is all I've got. Just a passing thought.
6.
Carbon 02:21
I can't wait another minute holding on. Contemplate your motivation. Is it wrong? With this voice I can speak into your phone. Shed my skin. Another moment moves along. Cut my arm on broken glass. Needed one thing to last. At least I know what it means to love someone. Reasoning doesn't mean a goddamn thing. Pretty pink origami smoldering. A back lit scene. Photographic memory. Mortal being, the cordyceps have entered me. Dug my heels into the pastel river running Northern. Sun is setting. Count your blessings one hand.
7.
Plans 02:27
Give me one last chance. I just wanna leave it right this time. I know I'm only meant to live and die. It's been hardly my choice. I hear your voice when I close my eyes. Is this loneliness a disguise? Sing though it hurts. This feeling never leaves. It hasn't gotten worse. I still bring myself to tears. Some things you just can't plan. You keep filling up a bank account. Your mind wanders anywhere from now. It's been too close to pretend. You might never have the words to say. What do you feel anyway? You're sick of the work. Been racing to the end. Relying on your thirst to keep digging in the sand.

about

Through writing and producing this album the world has gone through immense changes. What I started three years ago has come to an end. This collection of songs stands as a reminder that pain and loss are part of the beauty of life and are therefore unescapable.

You may be struggling, things may be uncomfortable right now, but please don't give up.

100% of proceeds from this album will be donated to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
