Written as a gift to my former roommates,
because the love they share inspired me to not be such an insufferable pessimist. 
Strings arranged and performed by Danny Barringer, who also engineered, and played bass, and the guitar solo. 
I played the acoustic and some of the other electric guitar parts.

I Live With Two People

The first acoustic recording of a song from the forthcoming EP of the same name, simple and stripped of the beautiful intricacies you will later come to love. 






Here are the lyrics.

I was just a kid
When I first flipped my lid
'cause all the books were taken off my shelf.
And there I lay, motionless, trying my best to breathe
'cause breathing aint so easy 
When you want so bad to leave.
Wouldn't you know it?

Well I was just 19 
When my head swallowed me.
'cause she assured that heathen of her love.
And there I lay, in her bed, the one we used to share,
And lord knows I'd be furious if I wasn't so damn scared
Of all the places my brain goes when it thinks that I'm not there.

You're the only thing that's keeping me alive.

Hold my head under water
Let the sound of drowning make me sane
There's no use
Why bother?
You know the drill
It's how I will remain.

You're the only thing that's keeping me alive. 

For Neurosis (Acoustic Demo)

Goodbye

Infant Song

A collection of songs written and recorded by my brother Danny and I,
over a period of a few years. 
They also happen to be about ex girlfriends. Except 'Postman'. That's just a good tune we wanted to include.
Rather than list which of us wrote which specific tunes, we'll just make it easy and say the singer wrote the song. 
We hope you might not hate these. We like them quite a bit.
