Swans 04:05
I want to pull apart your ribs I want to crawl inside your skin Together, we starve, our hearts and limbs entwined I will breathe with you, sharing every inch I will breathe with you, sharing every itch I never knew a love quite like this.

Grace 04:11
After the crash, I held my breath I was afraid of what I'd say to you To ease that friction in my chest I feel restless as our moments pass knowing that our graces were never meant I'll tell you that I am lost alone, as if these words were more than just oxygen And you'll forget something said A dissonance when we lay in bed Blank faces, figures in pretended love I don't want to die, just to put my mind to sleep I don't want this to die, but the unrest is killing me Lost in a tiger's den, you're a lionness Moonlight, I saw you undress We are made from instances More than what we can understand Am I apart or am I together Tracing lines in your forever And it's the tourniquet on your veins It's the electric in my brain It's the low hum I wandered in Becoming the white capped waves that drew me in close Turned to teeth to swallow the ship whole
3.
I'm not alright unless we're talking At night I pull apart my body And when I met you, I couldn't leave you Alone and restless, my voice of reason Resounds in my head; don't let it stop here But I am left where our end began And sometimes now I stare into the ocean And sometimes I scream for it to swallow me In realizing the best I can be to you Is a part of your decomposing memory Whether reluctant or unwilling i will still drown, and you, too
4.
At first I forgot what the words meant And then I forgot what they felt like I want to live clueless I want to love again I want to forget the things I left inside you I want to watch all our memories like a movie To trace your skin, your mind Half right, a self evident-lie

about

What took me eight months to write we recorded in a day. On a Thursday afternoon I spent two hours teaching Zach and Pat the songs, and then Zach went to work and Pat went to a concert. I went home to take a nap. Upon reconvening, Pat brought back a drummer named Nick who offered to lay down some of the tracks free of charge. We spent the next eighteen hours losing sleep, recording and mixing. We recorded trumpet parts during a school lunch break in two takes. I've never felt more blessed to know such kind and brilliant musicians. They transformed my music into something more beautiful to me than words can express. I've never had more fun in my entire life.

The album itself tells a story- capturing the past year I spent falling in and out of love. I wrote it about the toxicity of love, lust, attraction.
