outside, you don't know why
tell each other in the middle of the night
talk about it like you really want to know 
what she running around for?

rat-tat the door unlatch
someone here to take you back
outside in the middle of the street
are you getting what you need?

thoughts of you 
running through my mind
open door but it doesn't feel right 
you look at me as if you know what it's like 
in the shadows of the streetlight

now i know 
I can't go back
you're with her and she doesn't deserve that
but when I look into your eyes
you see something I'm trying to hide 

thoughts of you 
running through my mind
open door but it doesn't feel right 
you look at me as if you know what it's like 
in the shadows of the streetlight
shadow, why's it a shame for me to love?

Picture You Staring

Outside

TOPS "Outside"

I’m going to be candid here, in my life. I put up with so much shit and abuse from so many really hurt and sad people that want to do nothing more than see you fail and fall apart. The only thing that they don’t realize is that the more they try to destroy me. The stronger, kinder, and more compassionate it makes me! In fact, all the people that have ever hurt anyone or have done anything in malice, shame on you, shame on you! But, I don’t wish you illness. I wish that you would understand what you’re doing and hopefully reach some form of happiness in life. I was told to keep my friends close and my enemies closer.

But I need to reiterate this again, anyone who didn’t get it the first time. This doesn’t mean that you go freaking out and screaming at people and having a big scene. Just because you don’t like someone or the way they’re treating you, yes, they’re in the wrong, but be smart, think about it, don’t let it tear you apart, raise up above it, as that’s the problem of the world right now. And at the end of the day, you are responsible for your actions, not anyone else’s, and trust me, acting in love always wins. You can overpower any evil in life as long as you know in your heart you’re doing the right thing. Fight like hell, especially when you know it’s the right thing to do. No one can fault you for that!! 

Thank you for all the support. I really appreciate it. You guys mean the world to me, and honestly, I wouldn’t be making music if I wasn’t trying to change the world and make it a better place. Be the change you wanna see in the world and please treat yourself with kindness and treat others with kindness and maybe try to fu** shit up with kindness! 

Love you all ❤️❤️

https://store.cosmicdreamermusic.com/products/lucas-oswald-whet-vinyl

After getting in his time as a performing & touring musician with bands like The Appleseed Cast and Shearwater, Lucas embarked on a long and cathartic songwriting and recording process that would result in his sophomore full length, Whet. Lucas Oswald pulls influence from all over the map to craft his dense and colorful sophomore album. The songs were written over several tours abroad and recorded near Oswald’s hometown in rural Missouri, as well as San Antonio and Austin.
 
Whet also means to sharpen a tool, which to Lucas was a great metaphor for growth. "It took a lot of growth to make this album, and for me, as an artist, to sorta become the person I am." The homophone "wet" means almost the opposite of the "sharpened tool" definition of whet and the album (sonically) is just that: juxtapositions between sharp, punchy, abrasive sounds, and washy/reverby textures. It sounds as much like a singer songwriter record as it does like a reverb-laden Britpop record from the 90’s. Where Lucas’ creative journey ends, the journey of Whet begins.

Lucas Oswald - Dark On Us

Ariel Pink sets a serene but complicated scene for the next chapter in his curious career with “Another Weekend,” the first solo material heard since the prog-pop opus pom pom. Contrary to the lyrics of “Another Weekend” (and fortunately for both fanatics and the newly initiated), Pink is neither too shy or humble to have brought his singular style of pop music beyond the bedroom for the befuddled masses over the past two decades, but returned to the formative, familiar setting to craft what will surely live as another shimmering moment in an unrivaled canon.  Encapsulating the lingering euphoria of a regrettable weekend over the edge, “Another Weekend” speaks in morose volumes while whispering sweetly, the dichotomy of Pink’s pathos once again on display. Backed with “Ode To The Goat (Thank You)”, “Another Weekend” will be shared as a 7” single and through conventional music serving mechanisms on Wednesday, June 7.
