Love this change. Not where I expected it to go. Gorgeous.

It was crazy to know you
In a time we had all we ever wanted
Above our heads
The blue roses were doomed 
to die on the moon

It shows you what I know
When I'd trade anything that   
I could borrow
I was sure
As the tide rolling in
it would keep visiting

It was always first thing
In my head was it
There'd be no second guess

Now we're old enough
That we think too much
And we fail because we try

When you went out of your mind
I still loved you
When you came at me with hands
I held back too
Now you tell me that I've changed 
Well you should have too

Changing Tides

Sometimes, the things my parents do or say make me realize that I'm not the only one getting older. It makes me scared and a bit sad.

This song is for my parents.

Older

I've always been bad at making music. Writing it, playing it, obsessing over it, that was always easy, but never making it. I've chosen this moniker as a way to give the simplistic recordings I make a proper home, starting with October Again. 

This track was written in the Autumn of 2019, and acts as a sort of quiet impression of the seasonal shift. I hope any who listens can find some enjoyment in it.

October Again

After the initial panic, some sort of calm set in, after I was diagnosed with Mononucleosis, just before I was set to start my student teaching; I woke up remembering this dream and the song that came with it.

I got it from a dream, it just came to me 
I woke up singing about the strange idea that I had seen  
I said what if it’s true, oh God it feels so true 
I heard him say I could get away to remember who I am  

Dr. Einstein said use your head 
All you need is a little more sleep and my theory 
Dr. Einstein said get back into bed 
You can travel in time with your dreaming mind and relativity  

As I lay in bed, space and time in my head
I stretched my mind to understand what he had said  
You are everywhere, and you’ll always be 
Your soul can travel when you sleep yourself into infinity  

Chorus  

Now you know that time is a point on a line 
Where your body stays till it finds a way to move the mind 
Take your energy, bring it up to speed 
There is no limit to where you’ll go at dream velocity  

Chorus

Dr. Einstein Said

There's formaldehyde in cauliflower rice
Arsenic is high in the regular kind
I'm rusting inside from fortified iron
Washing it down with a glass of fluoride
And somehow I keep making it worse

I was born on the 3rd of the month
I guess three is unlucky for some
I'm as wild eyed 
far gone as they come

Is it oxalates?
Or vitamin A?
I cut them both out now I'm wasting away
Had my mouth mercury
Swapped for BPA
A neuro toxin that can cause chronic pain
And I know I'll keep making it worse

Order for me
Order for me
If you'd like to see my favorite again

Order for me
Order for me
I'd like to see you happy again

For transparent teeth
Take vitamin D
And when you have calcified your arteries
You can go dairy free
And the lack of iodine
Can put you in danger of thyroid disease
And you know you'll keep making it worse

3rd Of The Month

Maybe It's The Beginning And Not The End (mix 3.1)

My name's Jesse, I'm from Melbourne and I make songs sometimes

Thanks for listening
