Cover of Death Cab For Cutie's "Crooked Teeth"

lyrics:
It was one hundred degrees as we sat beneath a willow tree
Whose tears didn't care they just hung in the air
And refused to fall, to fall

I knew I'd made a horrible call
And now the state line felt like the Berlin wall
And there was no doubt about which side I was on

'Cause I built you a home in my heart
With rotten words that decayed from the start

'Cause you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along

I braved treacherous streets
And kids strung out on homemade speed
And we shared a bed in which I could not sleep at all

'Cause at night, the sun in retreat
Made the skyline look like crooked teeth
In the mouth of a man who was devouring us both

You're so cute when you're slurring your speech
and they're closing the bar
cause they want us to leave

And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along

I'm at war of head versus heart
it's always this way
My head is weak, my heart always speaks
Before I know what it will say

And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
There were churches, theme parks and malls
There was nothing there all along

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
And I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you?

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
I can't help falling in love with you
I can't help falling in love with you

can't help falling in love (elvis cover)

Coming soon to Zerowell records.

Lyrics: 
Looking for manatees
she is just a plastic bag pretending to be
something hungry enough to keep swimming
looking for manatees

well I've been walking around the Biscayne Bay
and I've been seeing folks I know and saying hey
after really really really long identical weekdays
driving to and from a job I kinda hate

is the future meant to hold more cash?
can I be taught to commodify the time spent on my ass
by drivers in sports cars who make them sputter as they pass?
is this life supposed to mean more than that?

Hands like bumblebees
and I am just a sleepless night
who's searching for a dream
and she is just an anxious cat
on a rain soaked, pockmarked street
'neath the radiator moon
looking for something to be

is the future meant to hold more than that?
more than home owning, a garden, and couple of cats?
more than sunny Sundays walking up and down the beach
just trying to figure out what we feel like we could eat?

I'm just looking for manatees
she has grown a person and she looks a lot like me
and I'm a safer, calmer driver after I've learned how to be
afraid of everybody else and now I live by the sea
looking for manatees

Manateez

From the upcoming album "Done Sleeping" out on Zerowell Records in March 2024.

Lyrics:
I love free parking in the Lucky Street garage
like a Dubai dystopia where all our monuments are malls
and all our malls are monuments to a big dollar-eyed god
we're gambling our credit card debt 
to impress our ways into better jobs

I like to look good
and movies that make me feel good too
I'll wear these coke-white Birkenstocks 
to a business that will improve my mood

all arts are commodities
codifying immaterial feelings
as I sing and sing and sing
to talking mannequins
it means the world to me

I've got this new job
I've got ten days off a year
I got a house you gotta drive to
I got pills for all my fears

and a fishtank and a swimming pool,
an electric car, I'm on a team of fools
working underneath the planks
he dances on, our well off Christ!

Zerowell Records released this banger on March 1st 2024

Lyrics:
Blue air before the rain
I held my sour breath
because every time I try to talk
I'm just a little bit off
do most people maintain their friends?
Everyone at my job thinks I'm a weirdo
I'll know all these kids so well until I don't
I guess passions will fade just like the school year
and in the hazy summer I will break all my bones

four sips in is my favorite feeling
five drinks in and I'm stumbling home
six a.m. says the phone on my nightstand
I am just wishing I could own my own pastel home

on Miami Beach where I was so lonely
where I worked long days
and I spent all my money on
food and drinks from other people's comfort zones
I could make them better but I know that I won't
because most days I don't even feel like trying
yeah when you're void of something
you just need it less
like friends, cash, food, love, I am without a talent
I don't want to hustle for it,
I just want to stay home

on Miami Beach where I sweated out something
but not the sickness that's been making me moan
and six a.m. says the phone on my nightstand
I am done sleeping, I just want to be gone

Done Sleeping

My cover of Colter Wall's "Kate McCannon"

LYRICS:
The raven is a wicked bird with wings as dark as sin
And he floats outside my prison cell mocking those within
And he sings to me real low, it's hell to where you'll go
For you did murder Kate McCannon

When I first met old Tom McCannon, I was working in the mines
Said he had himself a dark-haired daughter with long green eyes
When she and I did meet, she was bathing in the creek
Prettiest girl in the whole damn holler, that ain't no lie

So I went a-courtin' Kate McCannon
Got me a job and I quit my ramblin'
And every day I'd save a quarter of my pay
So I could buy a wedding ring

Lord, and one day I come home to find
My darlin' angel's not inside
So I went to the creek where she and I did meet
Found her with another lover

And I put three rounds into Kate McCannon

Kate McCannon

little bit of crush

you can't rush relaxation
the american work ethic is scary as shit to me
shall I replace these cigarettes with gourmet mac and cheese?
my ego with futurama?
would it help my fragility?
I would drive to work and back.
I feel it in my spleen,
my blood is getting clean.

and what use is this sleep?
I picture myself in the nile
with my body scrubbed clean,
turning tawny out in the sun
and my european dream,
if history didn't rule me out
with these glasses and these feet,
I guess I must be worth something

misery business

saw you take a y-bomb over the sink
and before I even had time to think
you were breathing your hot breath all over my mouth 
your tongue went in and in and out

o'er spectral juul clouds I wrote
reasons why it's important to vote
but I just grimace at that shit now
words come out and then stay out

but I wrote
and Tallahassee is ruined for me now
and old friends know that I will soon be out
of new friends' lives and any newfound clout
lost cos I am just dumb and mean and loud

reasons why it's important to vote

i'll be rooted in the stairs
waiting for the moon 
to cease its constant exercise
and let the sunlight move me
away from sleep 
and pointless dreams
of you tousling my verdant hair
weeds or flowers, I consider
small triumphs extraordinary
and I may be winning the fight against concrete
but I am not a weed,
no I am not anything
and you know I hate the sun?
because I am not any fun

shimmering asphalt
and its deep black smell
fills my room.
I'll go to bed soon
and if you're ever here,
I'll spend time with your ear
and all you'll really hear
is how much I want you

time with your ear

I miss that little rub you gave my arm while I was driving
even if I always pulled back
"It was too gentle," I always said, but hey, I take that back

A therapist might tell me
it's the love for self I lack,
or something even simpler,
like childhood and not getting touched enough then,
or having too many touches pushed

They say memories escape you up until you let them out,
but all you ever talked about was how much you liked me.
Now it was so much that you forgot what it was worth

You know, even when you rubbed 
too many cleaning products in your skin,
Sara, I still knew where to begin.
It was with your legs on both my shoulders,
where I could really see the world.

So let's say I didn't pull away
and we only ever spent our time
in cars and bars and you fucked Jasmine like you wanted to that night,
and I never got mad that you didn't invite me to your parents,
and I never looked at other girls, and I only ate vegan,
and I smiled and agreed every time that you said that you hate men,
and I never let on that I was falling in love with you,
well, what then?
