lyrics: 
the problem breeds a novel thief
and you conned it, ironic

you stayed with me, connected seams
and i loved it, i covet

and i needed that, i was catatonic
you carefully returned for me

calligraphic notes, stars would ink the pages
(you called my name with covered eyes)
blooming from the basement

that's like flashing hope to the patient
(you called my name with covered eyes) 
don't give them a reason

your combination i've never seen

but you've given me that, it was catastrophic

you're simply eternity

calligraphic notes, stars would ink the pages
(you called my name with covered eyes)
blooming from the basement

that's like flashing hope to the patient
(you called my name with covered eyes) 
don't give them a reason

your combination i've never seen

your combination

I started writing this song in the spring of ’22. This time was spent listening to the music of Yuki Kaneko and Manuella Blackburn while immersing myself in the flowering local grasslands. I was struck by the delicate, secluded intimacy of Yuki’s album “rut”, the jaw-dropping detail of Manuella’s “Formes audibles”, and how this music accentuated the surrounding landscape. I tried to capture this feeling and the sense of renewal it inspired while honoring these wonderful artists.

im in the backseat
youre not persuasive at all, im sorry
oh girl, I cant tell you what Im thinking
oh what are you doing to me
its hard to belive
are you still thinking of me

(ivu)
the way you think of me i might just be somebody different now
new id card no soul new person new persona
rose tinted glasses bout our past i might just have to pay the cost, eternal starcrossed

(ivu, friendd)
lovers in another life, i think that i'll remember it in every lifetimex4

Want2 is sorta about being queer and wanting to be straight, or normal, but just knowing that you can't. Maybe it relates to Wind with the theme of not really liking who you are but still accepting it. It's from the perspective of wanting to be with a woman, but knowing that no matter how hard you try it just wouldn't work out, and that kind of awkward aprehensive sort of tone comes from that.

I always wanted to make a garage pop song, and this was like my hundredth attempt haha. Anyway I was just sending some drafts in a groupchat to get some thoughts and Eva seemed to really take to the idea and asked to jump on it. I adore Eva and their work so it was a no brainer and she transformed the track overnight pretty much, completely rearranging it and pretty much laying out a whole song, it was wild. We went from there and eventually got it done!

you can find Eva and her work here!:

[LYRICS]
(to want)

I want to want you, but I don't.
And I need to tell you, but I won't

And if I tell you what I want
would you take it down to heart?
If I tell you what I want?

'cuz I want
I want

'cuz I want to want you
And I know, you just wanna be alone sometimes, you just wanna be alone
but I don't wanna be alone (sometimes)
(sometimes)

But I don't wanna be alone
If I'm forward, backward, reverse it down alone
lah lah bah bah dah dah dah

I wish I never met you in the first place
I know, you wish you never met me in the first place
I don't know what I want, what I want

Want2 (w/Evangeline)

Blind isn't really about anything, but it went through a back-and-forth period of being named "Music For Windows" before I settled with Blind. I guess it sort of puts a ribbon on the project as a whole and sort of projects that things haven't really improved all that much in my life personally. I still feel the same way as I did at the beginning. But that's alright! I'm trying to move onward and on to better things. Maybe even try and take this music thing more seriously?

This is probably a lie actually, I'm writing this part after finishing everything and I'm currently uploading some visualisers to youtube and idk I think it dawned on me that this track is a recontextualisation of "It's A Beautiful Day", it's the bad part of the worst day of your life, where IABD is the indifferent, good part. I think this can be the intro or the outro, just like IABD is. and I think it puts the "story" of the project in a different light. I am not happy with my life, or the things I have done, or the things that I do, but that's honestly fine, I'll live regardless, and maybe one day those things will change. Until then, I might be blind to it, but it's still a beautiful day.

[LYRICS]
Feel like an ossuary, so where do I pour my heart out?

This part of your life is being topped off the stack
and de-allocated to memory.
And you know what? there's a sense of freedom in that, enjoy it while it lasts, let's go to the coin dozers.
