until it's over

wrote this about looking into the mirror and seeing somebody so different its a literal monster

you monster
undercover
you’re so weak
you just can’t stop

these waters
i’m going under
before me
you stand too tall

im six feet down
about to sink deeper
i’m gonna drown

im Under the surface
Wondering if this is worth it
Try to swim from the danger
But somebody threw the anchor

and i’m sinking
deeper than deep ends

this feeling
it’s too familiar
it’s empty
but it’s my friend

a sweet thing
but it’s bitter
you’re the beast
inside my head

ten feet down
about to sink deeper
you’re gonna drown
me you creature

im Under the surface
Wondering if this is worth it
Try to swim from the danger
But somebody threw the anchor

i See my reflection
When i look your direction
find you’re not just a stranger
it’s me, i threw the anchor

and im sinking

this dagger
between my fingers
will shatter
this very mirror

and this dagger
will kill you creature
i’ll end you
right now and right here

if you don’t drown
my only ounce of hope
cause now i know

you are me
and im you
and we are one thing
but i dont wanna be you

See my reflection
When i look your direction
try to swim out this chamber
but somebody threw the anchor

i threw the anchor
we threw the anchor
you threw the anchor
and now i’m sinking

the anchor

when you float, you can see
all around
don't look down

when you're down on your knees
and afraid, go look up

in the arms of the one that you love,
i hope that you breathe in all you want,
all you can, but don't drown

started markmuffins initially as a lofi/indie rock project back in 2018. i'd consider myself naive to whatever sonic landscapes i could've potentially dabbled on but i was happy with my former output/s. fast forward to today, where current events + thinking about the future of this project just drains me.

id like to consider this EP to be a short(?) farewell, to dabble on other sounds i'm interested in exploring. (pls look forward to them!)

recorded in the span of 6 months, a 'moodboard' of how i'd want this project to sound like.

paalam!

drown

who knows (voice memo)

i don’t really know why
my biggest fear was working a 9 to 5
when our love was gasping for air
i dont really know why
i’m standing here on my birthday night
and you’re standing over there

i gotta take time
put in the work
and i don’t really know if it’s sposed to hurt
but i hope you’ll love me still

i waste time
trying to feel
the love and all the wounds i’m trying to heal
but i know you’ll love me still

and love you i will
i’ll still love you still

i don’t really know why
my biggest fear was running out of time
when our love was dying in my arms
i dont really know why
it’s torture forcing myself to watch you cry
knowing i did the harm

and babe there’s no amount of “sorry”
to fix the wreck i made
and there’s no amount of apologizing
oh, i gotta take

take time
put in the work
and i don’t really know if it’s s’posed to hurt
but i hope you’ll love me still

i waste time
trying to feel
the love and all the wounds i’m trying to heal
but i know you’ll love me still

and love you i will
i’ll still love you still

i waste time
trying to feel
the love and all the wounds i’m trying to heal
but i know you’ll still love me still

lets still love us still (demo)

my only memory
is of you and i on the couch
autumn's first breeze and
september's sun down
if it weren't for the candles
we'd be the warmest thing in the room
cause you're too hot to handle
for somebody who knows how to lose

and i guess that's why a therapist
writes half of all my lyrics
i give credit where it’s due
if therapy is listening, i love you

now that i’m 18
i know damn well a rock can’t talk
but i saw that movie
and it changed the way i stare at a wall

i think you’re funny
but i’ve conditioned myself to laugh
cause i want you to love me
but humor's something i don’t have

and i guess that’s why a narcissist
writes half of all my lyrics
i give credit where it’s due
i know i’m always listening, it’s all i do
if therapy is listening
mary if you’re listening
i swear i’m always listening
it's all i do

my only memory

Dog Song

Darling 
I've been wanting to stay in your den under the stars 
Honey 
Keep me close to your heart, locked away on the shelf in a jar 

So far 
So far away 
In dark 
In dark I'll stay 

Darling 
I've been watching the state of your world from inside a shell 
Honey 
I've been baring the weight of the world under your spell 

So far 
So far away 
In dark 
In dark I'll stay

until it's over
