“tiptoe” is an ode to the awkward and earnest initial attempts at getting to know someone.

You make your way through the crowded, bustling marketplace and head into “Bungo’s Bargain Bin”. Immediately, you’re overwhelmed — sounds, clutter, and choice. It’s a jam-packed shop filled with all sorts of knick knacks! You’re sifting through baskets and bins filled with clothes, silverware, cups, trinkets, and some unfamiliar things you can't categorize.

A large man with questionable posture scurries over - this must be Bungo. He sees you're holding a necklace, which you absentmindedly plucked out of one of those bins. He begins talking your ear off, clearly looking to make a sale. He can sense your hesitation, so he pulls you aside and asks you follow him towards the back of his store, towards a door that seems to lead outside.

Upon stepping through, you’re overcome with emotion - it’s unlike anything you’ve ever seen before! Trees, plants, flowers, all sorts of foliage that appears to be from another planet. You’re mystified and can’t help but lose track of time. Winding paths make their way endlessly through the gardens. You could stay here forever.

But, just as you’re starting to feel at home in this seemingly impossible paradise, everything snaps back - you’re somehow back inside Bungo’s Bargain Bin, at the counter, with the necklace in a paper bag and a receipt in your hand. You don’t remember making the purchase, but it must have happened somehow!

Bungo leads you out the front door and bids you farewell as you quietly shuffle away with a lighter wallet.

KEICO > ANXIETY

because ^who are you, if not what ^other people think you are
^why are you here? you had to ^lie to even get this far
and ^where am I now? this is your ^life and there is no escape
^ &but I need this place

so ^why do you try? I can't comprehend the future (here)
don't ^want you to die, but I cannot shed a single tear
to ^help is my goal, but it's doing more harm than it's not
if we ^compromise, we only have a single shot

well ^shall we attempt, our argument has happened times before
my ^head says to stop, it's my job, I push on through the door
the ^thoughts are a waste, am I ^really good enough for this?
lost track of my space, I forget, and I begin to list

I ^try to revert, one last time, I say it's better here
both ^visibly hurt, you are the ^one that tries to quell my fear
I ^think you're insane, I'll struggle, try to hinder you
and with^out malice you go to make your final move

"you know, I know it's not without reason. it's to protect me,
and I think I'm done with that."

"where do I start?"

ANXIETY

Come listen to the strange and shocking facts of the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire of March 1911, of a workplace tragedy that changed how New Yorkers live and work in a world of tall, potentially dangerous buildings.
