Halloween in August

Whippoorwill

Swimming in Summery optimism, "French Food" is a cheeky day dream about traveling and fine dining after living in isolation.

French Food (lyrics)

I left the iron on—can you help?
I can think of reasons why you should come over
I can’t tie my shoes by myself?
I guess I fall apart when left alone for too much time
I need something to do
Something with you
Why, we could fly the coop

I can see it when I close my eyes
Long overdue  
A table for two
I’m honestly about to lose my mind
I miss the views 
I miss the French food… cuisine française 

Maybe just a drive up the coast?
I can feel my volatile disposition           
Melting like a scoop on a cone
We’ll make up for the good times we’ve been missing
I need something to do
Something with you
Why, we could fly the coop

I can see it when I close my eyes
Long overdue  
A table for two
I’m honestly about to lose my mind
I miss the views 
I miss the French food… cuisine française 

Feeling pretty antsy
I miss pretending we were fancy
Spending all of our money on over priced dining… 

Trop cher…repas trop cher

Long overdue  
A table for two
I’m honestly about to lose my mind
I miss the views 
I miss the French food
I miss traveling with you
I miss the French food

Caught In A Twilight (lyrics)
Ooo you got me where you wanted
Ooo you’d think I’d lost my mind
Ooo the sun is where you left it
Now down is up and black is white
I don’t know what you’ve been told
But you’ve been sucking poison
From the lip of highball glass

Talking heads
Trying to make out of here
With my consciousness
Take my tongue and disappear
I’m not smiling cause it feels like I’m
Caught in a twilight
Caught in a twilight
Caught in a twilight zone

The masses become moonstruck
Turned rabid from the lies
Crooked pigs running amok
A giant spiral fills the sky
Maybe I hit my head too hard
Or maybe not hard enough
I got the feeling the stars will still be spinning when I wake up

Talking heads
Trying to make out of here
With my consciousness
Take my tongue and disappear
I’m not smiling cause it feels like I’m
Caught in a twilight
Caught in a twilight
Caught in a twilight zone 

Oh we find the cure in love
Look past your mirror
Learn to listen
Face the fear
The truth may look different
Truth may look different

Caught In A Twilight Zone

oh no

Hey fuck you, got a pretty face but that don’t make you cool
I’m so tired of being a disease, got a pretty face but you won’t get the best of me
What’s it matter to you if I dye my hair blue
What’s it matter, what’s it matter to you
I’m afraid that all the things I say just come out lame
What’s it matter anyway?
Hey, yeah you, act like you got something to prove
I’m so tired of doing as you please but you won’t get the best of me
What’s it matter to you if I dye my hair blue
What’s it matter, what’s it matter to you
I’m afraid that all the things I say just come out lame
What’s it matter anyway?
Should you be scared? I’m completely aware that I’m my own worst enemy
I’m afraid that I am fully to blame and if that’s the case, then just let it be
What’s it matter to you if I dye my hair blue
What’s it matter, what’s it matter to you
I’m afraid that all the things I say just come out lame
What’s it matter anyway?

What's It Matter

Once I played my electric harp on the lead line of this classic 2010’s sad bop, it was a match made in heaven. This song is a perfect blend of upbeat and groovy with the undertones that get you in your feelings, all the things that I’m really about as an artist.

Intro:
Can someone take me home
Cause i don't want to be alone
In my bed with all thoughts

Can someone take my phone
Cause i can't stand to see your face
Knowing that you're probably moving on

Mini-Chorus
But now we're on our own
And i don't know what i've become

First Verse:
I don't really feel like trying
I'm sick of all the nights where i
Drink myself to sleep all alone

And i'm so tired of all the crying
And saying hard goodbyes
I just wish i could have you but i don't

Chorus:
But now we're on our own
And i don't know what i've become
Since all i do is run away
And i don't know what i can say anymore
Second Verse:
I know i said i never want to try again
I think i might have lied then
Cause the loneliness is eating at my heart

And i'm so sorry to all of my friends
I know i let you down again
But most of all
I'm sorry to just you

Chorus:
But now we're on our own
And i don't know what i've become
Since all i do is run away
And i don't know what i can say anymore
Bridge:
I never thought i'd make it this far
You're the only one i cared for
I just need you back in my arms

I never thought i'd make it this far
You're the only one i cared for
I just need you back in my arms

Chorus:
But now we're on our own
And i don't know what i've become
Since all i do is run away
And i don't know what i can say anymore

Can Someone Take Me Home?

Quicksand (lyrics)

You’re so quick to speak your mind
If you’d shut your foaming mouth for a minute
Maybe you could see another side
But you got a brain full of fire
It’s no wonder what you are
You take the sentiment and bend it
It’s no longer colorful
You’re quicksand
You’re in my head
I try to move on but I’m stuck to the spot
I won’t pretend
That I’m not scared
You’re pulling me down can someone help me out
You’re so quick to take your time
When you’re working on yourself — got a beauty filter on
Can’t see the wrong from right
Yeah you got a tongue sharp as knives
Can’t stop talking out both sides
I’ll be waiting for the universe
To cut you down to size
You’re quicksand
You’re in my head
I try to move on but I’m stuck to the spot
I won’t pretend
That I’m not scared
You’re pulling me down can someone help me out
I get lost inside of it
I get lost inside of it
I get lost inside of it
I get lost in the sight of it
I get lost inside of it
I get lost inside of it
I get lost inside of it
I get lost inside of
You’re quicksand
You’re in my head
I try to move on but I’m stuck to the spot
I won’t pretend
That I’m not scared
You’re pulling me down can someone help me out
Of the quicksand
Of the quicksand
Of the quicksand
Of the quicksand

la gran pena

Hard Being Alive (feat. chloe moriondo)

this is a really cheesy song i wrote about crushing on someone😝


those puppy dog eyes 
that dissapear when you smile
that fluffy mess of hair
so precious i could die


i wanna bury myself in ur sweatshirt
and write my name on ur converse
i like you and ur soft little heart
everything about you is a work of art
i love it when ur in my dreams 
that face should be on the cover of a magazine
hold ur breath and grab my hand
i wanna be ur girlfriend
ur girlfriend
not just friends
hold ur breath and grab my hand
i wanna be


someone you like
someone you think of all the time
my hands would be tied
if crushing was a crime


i wanna bury myself in ur sweatshirt
and write my name on ur converse
i like you and ur soft little heart
everything about you is a work of art
i love it when ur in my dreams 
that face should be on the cover of a magazine
hold ur breath and grab my hand
i wanna be ur girlfriend
(what a dreamboat makes me blush
im the queen of the biggest crush)
ur girlfriend
(hes so pretty, hes so fine
i wish i could say hes mine)
not just friends
(floating through the candy clouds
im not ever coming down)
hold ur breath and grab my hand
i wanna be


i love the way you dress like the 90s
i love the rhythm that sounds from ur heartbeat
i love ur accent, sing something to me
hypnotize me
i wanna be the girl that holds ur hand
i want you to be my man
baby id be there for you always


i wanna bury myself in ur sweatshirt
and write my name on ur converse
i like you and ur soft little heart
everything about you is a work of art
i love it when ur in my dreams 
that face should be on the cover of a magazine
hold ur breath and grab my hand
i wanna be ur girlfriend
(what a dreamboat makes me blush
im the queen of the biggest crush)
ur girlfriend
(hes so pretty, hes so fine
i wish i could say hes mine)
not just friends
(floating through the candy clouds
im not ever coming down)
hold ur breath and grab my hand
i wanna be
