i'm trying

----------------------------------
Darling would you be so kind to give me a shot at this
unconventional start to an ordinary part
of this teenage bliss
         
Cause baby where you're hiding
is where i wanna be
i can't keep them at bay, but i promise, babe
just be afraid with me

I keep it together
just keep it together
let's stay together darling
keep me from falling apart

I'm in no hurry to hear those roman bells
i'll take my time
cause it's worth my while
to be under your spell

Keep It Together

tell me your stories, the minutiae of your day
hold me, don't bore me
i think that you know the way

to speak to me when i'm fragile
when i make my mistakes
sing to me all your praises
all the promises you'll never break

just deal with me gently

fate please take me by the hand
or i will burst apart
i want to understand
the insides of your heart

just speak to me when i'm fragile
when i make my mistakes
sing to me all your praises
all the promises you'll never break
i love you more than you know
so please always stay
stay with me until the summer breeze
turns into the winter spray

just deal with me gently

you don't have to take me by the hand
you don't have to take me by surprise
you don't have to show me another fate
you don't have to show me another life
it doesn't have to be this way
i don't know

Me & My Cliche

These are late night introspective songs performed by myself

Jumped the Gun

We're trying new things! First song for 2016

Recorded in Garageband

writing these feelings down for you to forget
swearing him off to suppress your regret
you think you gave him everything
but that’s the reason you’re suffering

we can’t always have it our way 
the stars align darling but not in a day

looking at places where you thought you’d find
that lover who would understand your mind
don’t keep on wasting your time
longing for boys with their petty clever lines

when did you lose your sight?
on the concrete you’ve fallen hard,
with no maps to guide you, i’d get lost too

reading the pages of your memories
from blots and creases of your old diary
that’s when you realized what was real
you had to die just to feel

The Element of Surprise (Demo)

striated inattention and a nervous blessing --
I'm a Sea of Wombs; I am a Bottle of Snakes,
and in a Garden of Shadows, test my vague awareness.
WALK SLOWLY I'M BEING HUMAN.

My Eyes at the Time of the Apparitions
My Eyes at the Time of the Apparitions
My Eyes at the Time of the Apparitions close.

Earth in my pocket, Third or Fourth sequence, Pray to an Inferior God.

Your fractured inclination, fleeting pallid glow:
I still owe money; I try to recreate the flame,
and when you're problematic, SITUATIONS DANCE!
tread lightly; you'll scare the critics.

My Eyes at the Time of the Apparitions
My Eyes at the Time of the Apparitions
My Eyes at the Time of the Apparitions close.

Earth in my pocket, Third or Fourth sequence, Pray to an Inferior God.

I was looking for something that wasn't there
I can't complain, from the start it ain't fair
A shade of winter, a sordid white
I always thought that you looked so fine

In the summer it's so hot I can't think
I sweat in bed til I can't feel a thing
A shaky headache, a sorry head
When I have time to write you I'll sleep it off instead

Should I be sorry I remember it too well?
The more I think about it, the less I can tell

I should've known, I saw most of the signs
Thought I could keep up but something wasn't right
A falling ladder, a sleeping crow
A doppelganger out on death row

But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

That's the problem when you get to specifics
I fixate on the small details
I forget the bigger picture
At least that's what my horoscope says

And I guess I don't believe in constellations
Seeing the future only gets you so far
All I need is rude warm blood in the night
And some shelter from the dark

But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

[dom facemelting solo]

That's the problem when you get to specifics
I fixate on the small details
I forget the bigger picture
And I close the door instead


But my room's so small
that the headboard hits the ceiling
and I can't even stretch out my legs
What more room for someone else's pillow
on a single unmade bed

Room So Small (Big Version)

hey y'all it's been agesssss here's a new song for youuuu

walking around feeling light as air
to know that i've got you there
easing my heart kiss by kiss
i think it's cool we share something as honest as this

so it's two trains and a footbridge
to get to you 
long days in between 
and the scorching sun
but i'd go through it
brave the storms, i'd really do it
if it means to be with you 

darling, the days do get hard
the longer that we're apart
but there's nothing that circumstance could do 
i'm learning of love and of you
