My Darker Days is emotionally set in the final two years I spent in Chicago before moving to Michigan. There's always light in the darkness, and I wanted the album to show a valley, starting with brighter songs, before dipping into sounds that, in my mind, evoke a darker imagery. "Rock Bottom" is the song that marks the passing up to the other side of the valley, which has some steps with more energy, but with the knowledge of the previous descent.

Really though, this is the story of My Darker Days

Matt Damon

your palm trees are wilting
paradise in a sheltered box
misfortune on the brink of
the disposal blades begin to

spin and spin and spin around
mangle, tear, and thrash about
my bones, my bones they asked for more
my bones won't shut up, it's a chore

i blink into a conscious tone
but then i'm back to trading
the spectrum's skewed to all surrounds
that i accept, except exemption

what did you do and why did you do it?
what did you do and why would you do that?

all the trash outside in the dumpster
knows me by name and it's no wonder
something about you gets me slimy
rancid acts and thoughts so grimy

garbage bin bombs

i don't ask for nothing
just want security
your containers contain me
your contains can't tame me

Cool's Check

First single from the upcoming album

buzz buzz
got me thinkin bout what i could
do if i just let me get to you
make you break that table
the way i know that only you can do
because i do it different
but anything with you
is my favorite way about it

for real though
your pain is new
but now it's ours and
there's a shot to line up
i'd say you're stripes
now even though i know
you're solid
don't care if i win
want to play the game and
i'm just here to be here with you

i know you're solid

buzz buzz
got me thinking how the distance
is oh so very, very
very temporary
cause the collision's coming
if i let it sink in
scratching at a reason
there's something i believe in
that goes beyond the season
there's something i believe in

i know you're solid
