a man steps into his house
he hasn’t been here in a while
a man speaks, he reeks of rust
fell asleep in the parking lot
i was five
you took me to the movies and your love is time
in this front seat
everything feels the same
i was four
all i saw was red paint all across our front door
everything has changed
drive away
the clouds still look the same

come back, the door’s open
concrete bare
i wish you spent your last week home
smoke from the incense
smoke from your cigarettes
are you happier?
can’t hear you now
framed up and motionless on our kitchen wall
do you now drive the car we couldn’t afford?
we’ve got no more days and i miss you
how do i get used to an empty spare room?
noodles for breakfast taste so cold
lottery numbers in jotter books
cubes of butter in the afternoon
are you happier?
can’t hear you now
framed up and motionless on our kitchen wall
do you now drive the car we couldn’t afford?
we’ve got no more days and i miss you
are you happier?
can you hear me now
it’s been three years since our last phone call
do moon blocks tell you about
the dreams i have of you as well?
we’ve got no more days and i miss you

and i don’t know where this road goes
but i’ll take it far from here
i don’t see familiar faces
wherever i may roam
uncertainty
uncertainty
everything I know gets blurry
but i’ll walk to know the way
i don’t want to think of leaving
do I even wanna stay?
uncertainty

and i don’t know where this road goes
(but i’ll take it far from here)
but i’ll walk to know the way
(do i even wanna stay?)
i don’t wanna think of leaving
(i don’t see familiar faces)

shifting feet and silence
entity of tangled empty shells
pictures of your younger self
to an unintended recipient
willing company of convenience
you seek life but curse existence
isolate and build resistance
this time we wake to leaving
choked up spite in softer sounds
summer solstice is almost over now
fall asleep to sorry endeavors
your saccharine breath a frail lull
summer solstice is finally over now
i think you’ve lost some weight
your hair still falls quite the same way
last night i dreamt up a street i’d never seen
caught up in some sort of misty conspiracy
you seek life but curse existence
isolate and build resistance
this time we wake to leaving
choked up spite in softer sounds
summer solstice is almost over now
fall asleep to sorry endeavors
your saccharine breath a frail lull
summer solstice is finally over now

lost your way
february haze
do you miss the days we spent in the sun?
what a shame
could we wake up where we left again
i’ve seen you before but i never got your name
there’s a picture of you i found
you’re sitting in the snow
(with the woman you loved)
i think about the world you saw before me
to my great dismay
it’s to you i have so much to say

Remember a Stranger

today is moving day
no nightmares of your lover’s whereabouts
no crying, holding your child
cardboard boxes instead of a duffel on your shoulder,
running out
run to your mother’s house
run from your mother’s house
ghosts with no one to know
enamored, not ready to go

your hands are warm
you just don’t know it yet
white and blue and red
white and blue and red
blue star with a white snake
the last time you
remember a stranger
you are full of color but out of sight
you are free from prying eyes
i feel like a fraying thread
the rest of us walk around blind
misplaced, displaced
where was i again?
destruction in my hands
destruction with my hands
i try to make things better but i only hold
destruction in my hands
destruction in my hands
i try to make things better but i only hold
where was I again?
your hands are warm, you just don’t know it yet

The greatest to ever do it, do it again! Sometimes lush as a warm blanket, sometimes all the angles of a dance party, always suspended in and out of time

Bliss-inducing melodic fuzz. This is an album to get lost in.

A delicate bedroom pop EP (no pun intended) that captures the woozy anxieties of an insomniac period.
