When you know the sun is supposed to rise but the darkness feels so heavy while you're in it.
Keep eyes for the glimmers of hope in those times, to remind us light will come.
---
I can't wait
For the day you say will come
And I'll do my all to keep that day moving on
And I can't wait
But you say that it's coming soon
I wanna feel that sunrise
But all I see's reflections of the moon

Happiness is not a destination
It's a journey, it's a story, it's a complex state of mind
It could find you blessed or barely breathing
But the path is paved in progress so the struggle is divine
And I can't

Eyes like windows but experiencing screens
Cut out some pinholes for a variance of beams
Balanced flamingo vegetarian of greens
We're just some minnows in aquariums of dreams
But I'll follow the clean stream queen

And I can't wait
For the day you say will come
And I do my all to keep that day moving on
And I can't wait
You say that it's coming soon
Wanna feel the sunrise
But all I see's reflections of the moon
Oh of the moon
All I see's reflections
Of
The
Moon

been bumping to this post-emo classic recently and decided to put my own spin on it

i'm low on gas and you need a jacket

early 2019 - early 2020 i didn't go a single night without a bad dream . jack ladd on bass. insp - 40 day dream by edward sharpe and the magnetic zeroes, all you need is love by the beatles ("the world's most famous song"), hop along's first album, and revelation from da bible. track 3 of s'ok. thank you for listening.

stress dreams

tongue-in-cheek. ironically i never saw this person again . i wrote this in a bathroom. insp - jack and blow by atta boy, and cool by gwen stefani. track 4 of s'ok. thank-you so much for listening.

sea u soon

wtaching your friends move on to bigger and better things while you're still working at your first job and going to community college in your hometown . but at least you have a notion that your ex is miserable too. less kate bush, more "barely keeping my will to live" vibes of young adulthood lol. insp - babooshka by kate bush, the bug collector by haley hendrickx, land locked blues by bright eyes,the ocean by tonight alive, ode to sleep by twenty one pilots, and not in kansas by the national. track 5 of s'ok. thank u for listening. i love you.

babushka

originally called "car breakup song" and i think that's porbably all i need to say ab it. insp - laments by hop along, every lorde song ever (hence the teeth imagery lol), the record player song by daisy the great, how simple by hop along, all of me wants all of you by sufjan stevens, aaand the veggietales theme song. track 6 of s'ok. thanks for listening

teeth

the last song written and recorded for the record . heavily influenced - should have known better by sufjan, the beauty of mundanity outlined in phoebe bridgers'  whole catalogue (specifically "demi moore"), the new strokes album, and how you got your limp by hop along. the old friend is whoever you want it to be. track 7 of s'ok. thank you so much for listening

an old friend

the only love song i've ever written, really. i like to think of it as the last shred of hope before the rest of the album completely bums everyone out, mirroring life. that was so corny lmao. insp - sufjan stevens apparently, supermodel by sza, the chain by ingrid michaelson, and unbearably white by vampire weekend. track8 (not 11!!!) of s'ok. thank u for listening.

reconnecting w an ex. gris is spanish for gray. that's all i gotta say ab that. insp - that's just the way i feel by purple mountains, the beauty of mundanity outlined in all of phoebe bridgers' discography (specifically "demi moore"), mind by declan mckenna, and lua by bright eyes. track 9 of s'ok. thank you for listening

gris (you'd think i'd have known)

originally called "fuck instagram." a toss up for my fav song on the record. this one was so fun to write and put together. took maybe 4 months to get it perfect. lots of teeth imagery thanks to my growing up on lorde lol . insp - all lorde songs ever. track 10 of s'ok. thank you for listneing. it means the world.

i'm going swimming
