Burn 04:26
Hello there, at least you're sober this time Hand over, the keys--like this, I said you can't, you can't drive Oh well, it's awesome how you twirl me around Oh well, it's awesome how you burn me Oh well, it's awesome how you turn this around Oh well, it's awesome how you burn me, down Oh... Hello there, at least it's over this time Pull over, like this--I said you can't, you can't drive Oh well, it's awesome how you twirl me around Oh well, it's awesome how you burn Oh hell, it's awesome how you'll turn this around Oh well, it's awesome how you burn me, down Oh... And it's burning, and again and again You are turning, all alone in your head It's concerning, the time that we spend To taste it, and waste it, to start over again You can burn me all you like I won't fall I won't break at all (break it off) I won't fall Hello there, at least it's over-- This time.

Miss 04:42
In your perfect little house, At the back of your mind, You could come on out, Or meet me inside, Are you afraid? Of things I'll never find, In that creepy little basement, You fight so hard to hide And how long has it been? Since you dug your teeth in? And I need to believe, Tomorrow will come and today will leave Not soon enough Are you in love? (Or) With the thought of being in love? Have you had enough? Circling around your mind. This time, I will help you find me, In the darkest place of your mind And how long has it been? Since you dug your teeth in? And I need to believe, Tomorrow will come and today will leave Not soon enough And that perfect little house, At the back of your mind, Well you could come on out, Or let (or meet) me inside. Are you afraid? Of what I will never fight, In that creepy little basement, You've fought so hard to hide And how long has it been? Since you dug your teeth in? And I need to believe, Tomorrow will come and today will leave Not soon enough.

Wings 05:30
It wasn't like you, To end the world, Right? It wasn't like you? To hold my hand through the night It wasn't like you? To strip the secrets from my soul It wasn't like you? To keep me, Whole Hold, On to me, Girl The world, It doesn't need, A thing Hold, To broken wings, Girl The world, Can watch this body sing/sink, Sing It wasn't like you? By surprise To empty oceans, Through plain and faded eyes It wasn't like you? To start The leading reason for the beating of my heart Hold, On to me, Girl The world, It doesn't need, A thing Hold, To broken wings, Girl The world, Can watch this body, Break Lying awake, Lying to you These tides will break, If you want them to--when you cross the moon Who floods my mind, With what self-destructive habits this time? So easy to feel alive (When your heart is on fire), With failing wings at my side (With flaming wings at my side) At my side, You shouldn't feel this way--it's alright You shouldn't, Be afraid--it's alright You shouldn't, Walk away yet--it's alright You shouldn't believe (You should know) Hold, On to me, Girl The world, It doesn't mean a thing Hold, on to Hope, Girl The world, Can watch these bodies' Wings.

Endpiece Kids: Sun, (Son) Hear me out, It's been the Moon's fault, Since the Sky fell down Words, (Words) I need some help, It seems all you are with, Is all I'm without You leave me alone, (You) Each and every day, You leave me alone, In every single way At least I'm not alone to say-- (I hope) That your stars don't seem to shine, (They never shine) Through 18 years of your life, Could they somehow have passed you by? (How the hell could that happen?) When you had felt like this inside? And every town feels more alive, (More alive than this shithole) When you come from the outside, (Out of where?) You can take this and so can I, (I can't take it, I can't take it) 'Cause you were born and raised to survive Sun, (Son) Please don't shout, (Don't tell me what to do) It's not the Moon's fault, That Stars walked out (Then who's fault is it?) Words, (You don't have any) I need your help, (I can't help you) It seems all you are with, Is all I'm without (I am everything) You leave me alone, (The way you should be) Each and every day, (The way we should be) You leave me alone, (Because I'm an answer, because I'm a cancer) In every single way (What are you doing to me?) (And then I could hope for you too) But your stars don't seem to shine, (And why would they?) Through 19 years of your life, Could they somehow have passed you by? (That could be) When you had felt like shit inside? (Everyday) And every town feels more alive, (I can't stay here) When you come from the outside, You can take this and so can I, (Can I take this?) 'Cause you were fuckin' made to survive (I can take this) You, (Who?) You, (Who?) You, (Who?) You.

Sad Song 08:00
Tell me everything, Are you still turned on by the cold? And the love that it brings, Why can't you just buy yourself a coat? An easy lover, An easy cover, But you don't have to hide, And despite this easy love tonight, Something in your eyes doesn't look quite right Okay listen, To this song, The words they aren't too catchy so you won't sing along, And you won't dance to this--no you won't sing, I really hope that this time you feel something Oh no Tell me anything, Are you still afraid of the moon? And the light that it brings, Shining on the damaged part of you, That perfect part of you And who would've guessed? I ever had a chance, And who would've known? I never learned to dance Well okay listen, To this song, The beat is not so up so don't you dare tap along, And you can't dance to this--no you can't sing, Just like those fakers on TV who'll sell you anything And you can't dance to this--you can't sing, Kickstart that drum inside your chest that stopped beating Oh no I don't have the heart, To write this song, And to hear you turn and ask "are you okay, what's wrong?" 'Cause there's no cure for this--no there's no way, Well baby that's bullshit you know, 'Cause people change And you will dance to this--and you will sing, Every single note and word in this life you're missing, And you can dance to this--and you can sing, I just really hope this time you actually feel something Oh no Tell me everything.

Ember's End 05:10
Ember's End December 31st, A hell of a way to live our lives, The resolution flirts, With better ways to spend our time But only when you see, You've written off a write-off now, It's only then you'll see, The everything you could be now But you want more, You think you've found an out, You're coming around, You're coming around now, To bleed our insecure, Hearts Out But you want-- Me to understand, Hey--this could be the end, But only when you see, You've written off a write-off now, It's only then you see, And be everything you could be now But you want more, You think you've found me out, You're coming around, You're coming around now, To bleed our insecure, Hearts Out But you want more, You think you've found me out, You're coming around, Coming around now, To bleed our insecurities, All out-- But you want more... You, Know, You Ember, I'm trying, To remember, The words But Ember, I feel it dying, So please remember, To burn Ember, I'm trying, To remember, The words But Ember, I feel it dying, (I'm dying) So please remember, To... Burn You want more, Haven't you had enough yet? It's never enough, Never enough no, Just to feel the feelings come, And go-- But you want more, Haven't you had enough yet? It's never enough, Never enough no, Just to feel the feelings come, And go-- But you want more.

about

This album is inspired by old poems, songs, and life. I'd describe my music as hopeful, and that's how I hope you feel after listening.

Thank you truly and from the heart,
