The pill I could swallow the first night The room falling dark when you go home The comments you laid under my mind I hate to adore it The way you say The colors we dreamt were never gonna blend The way The polish came between our closing hands The toll of the hours wasted Uncoiled like a TV wire Laid in the same position Don’t wanna wait for it The way you say The colors we dreamt were never gonna blend The way The polish came between our closing hands I washed our mornings in the rain The way you say The colors we dreamt were never gonna blend The way The polish came between our closing hands The way you say The colors we dreamt were never gonna blend The way The polish came between our closing hands

Lost My Love 02:58
Took control from the day you drew the line Lost strength while the silver lost its shine Too many days with a tilting perspective Until the weight finally broke what wasn’t mine (I lost my love for you) I’m tired of dependence (I lost my love for you) Your secret aggression (I lost my love for you) It’ll push you off the deep end (I lost my love for you) You gotta sink in order to learn to swim [Instrumental] Threatening waters seem to swallow hidden truth Buried deep within the nocturnal roots Far below the surface creatures lay dormant Disturb the soil and you’ll find all the proof (I lost my love for you) I’m tired of dependence (I lost my love for you) Your secret aggression (I lost my love for you) It’ll push you off the deep end (I lost my love for you) You gotta sink in order to learn to swim [Instrumental] (I lost my love for you) I’m tired of dependence (I lost my love for you) Your secret aggression (I lost my love for you) It’ll push you off the deep end (I lost my love for you) You gotta sink in order to learn to swim

Face It 03:30
You get pissed off when I say I’m sorry You’re so in love with what we used to be No reciprocity Not looking for the other options Too busy mourning over loss of where we were On better terms The way you take me anyway that you want Too scared of any challenge at all Denying the subtle fall of True devotion everything that I crave Now getting caught in complacent embraces But you won’t face it [Instrumental] Goodbye was always plan b You’d rather waste your youth on me Killing all our time In faux fantasy You picked apart my passion Caught stealing all my golden hours Days I could have spent Dealing my own cards The way you take me anyway that you want Too scared of any challenge at all Denying the subtle fall of True devotion everything that I crave Now getting caught in complacent embraces But you won’t face it [Instrumental] You get pissed off when I say I’m sorry You’re so in love with what we used to be You went ahead and wasted it on me Time to face it

All mine My little secret Can’t decide If I should keep it You’re my favorite Chain reaction My chosen distraction Lets not get lost in translation Your distance doesn’t scare me off There’s mutual captivation All the speculation has to stop I mean how could it be I no longer recall Every bleak suspicion that you’d make it all my fault Wrong assumptions Far too often Creating subtle silences and keeping up that wall Lets not get lost in translation Your distance doesn’t scare me off There’s mutual captivation All the speculation has to stop [Instrumental break] Lets not get lost in translation Your distance doesn’t scare me off There’s mutual captivation All the speculation has to stop

It gets colder when you leave me (Can’t decide) If that’s only in my head (Too shy) For the words I could have uttered (Guess I tried) Feeling like the rest Poison comforts, words with strangers Fill your empty space Losing all the days that you gave me Thinking too much ‘bout what they mean Worried that I might be the one to fuck this one up Too young too numb for the future Love letters on my computer No longer have anyone to blame my issues on but me Fighting urges to affirm you (Every time) You feel down I get you up (Too kind) Every step towards growing feels so fake when your not hear to see Losing all the days that you gave me Thinkin’ too much ‘bout what they mean Worried that I might be the one to fuck this one up Too young too numb for the future Love letters on my computer No longer have anyone to blame my issues on You were the change I needed to get through it I finally met my match I think I blew it It’s time to prove to you that you’re in luck ‘Cause I really don’t wanna fuck this one up Too young too numb for the future Love letters on my computer No longer have anyone to blame my issues on but me

about

I see this piece of work as the most raw and organic representation of my own experiences of love, loss, curiosity and excitement. When I was deciding on the EP’s song order, the only way that made sense was the order in which I wrote them. My music has always felt diaristic and reflective and to put those sonic memories out of order didn’t feel right.
