I don't understand
(Written and performed by John Stone)

for Sherry

Oh I don’t understand and  I don't understand why you love me
Although it is quite clear to everybody that you do
Oh I don’t understand no I don't uderstand why you need me
You could have done much better than whatever I have ever done for you


I know we came from different worlds
We walked upon different roads
Raised upon different promises
And carrying different loads
We grew up to see the world differently 
and we both have different doubts
But together we both found certainty
Through ups and downs and all life’s in and outs 


And I love you
And that’s all that really matters 
I love you
If the world around us breaks and shatters
We will hold together
We have stood the test of time
And kept our sweetheart promises
That I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine
How I love you


But I don’t understand, how I could I understand why you fell for me
When there was so much better waiting everywhere for you 
And I don’t understand,  no I don’t understand  why you saved me
From  wasting  so much precious time just trying to be free


My head always seems to be stuck in the cloud
When I’d be better off sticking with you
Now and again we even had  different dreams
But only one dream ever once came true

Yes I love you...

LYRICS AND ANNOTATIONS:

(Morse code for "we are just like you we promise. settle in.")
(birds)
Bones chilled in the old ghost forest,
Where the tide came in took the land away.
Hollow trees, still standing.
Knee deep in swamp water is where I stay (is where I stay).

Living lives of quiet desperation.
The haters, they just follow the herd,
Wearing masks of false inspiration,
Their festering wounds left undisturbed (undisturbed).

Running towards the pain,
The wicked voice of their disdain,
On that edge - the tired eyes reflect:
It’s only the first time we fear what’s next.

For those who live in risk,
In a society whose promises won’t stick,
Is this the end of the line?
Have we used up what’s left of our time?

In the old ghost forest, I stand tall
Like a stubborn oak tree that refuses to fall.
Empty cans and bottles lie nearby,
Artifacts from a past that will not die.

In the old ghost forest, I kneel to pray,
Confess my sins, wash them away.
In the old ghost forest, I scream aloud,
"Lord, gimme the strength to stand proud!"

(birds)
Our future's found: four circles deep.
Come slosh around; more misery, reaped.

What’s woes occurred: cursed, fate foreseen.
What does the word "worst" even mean?

A fitting gloom: stark, rank and sour.
A fetid tomb: dark, dank and dour.

We should have known how ends begin.
This is our home now; settle in.

Settle in.

(city street chatter)
We should have known how ends begin.
This is our home now; settle in!

Settle in!

We are just like you.
We promise, we promise.
Settle in…
We promise, we promise.
Settle in…

Black tar rains from a sky long dead,
We chew on rust, drink molten lead.
No dawn breaks through this crawling haze,
Just grinding teeth and static praise.
This is the hymn of bone and sin—
The sludge within did settle in.

Our tongues are ash, our limbs decay,
We march in place, still rot away.
This is the hymn of bone and sin—
The sludge within did settle in.

This is the hymn of bone and sin—
The sludge within did settle in.
(ocean sounds)

"Close Enough" is a slow-burn in every sense — a late-night confession wrapped in velvet synths, whispered truths, and the kind of tension that never quite breaks. It’s about those in-between moments: the distance between two people lying inches apart, the words we almost say, the touch that lingers a second too long. Built on warm analog textures, a heartbeat pulse, and a sensual vocal that never needs to shout, this track leans into the cinematic and the intimate. It’s moody, magnetic, and soaked in restraint — the soundtrack to a night you won’t name in the morning. If you’ve ever wanted someone too much to call it love, this one’s for you. Headphones on. Lights low. Let it pull you under.

[LYRICS]

if you were fine-
i could stomach just picking you up tonight...
though-
lately, i can't find
the strength to try anymore...

i don't wanna live-
if living means to give and give

[ YEAH-
FLESH IT OUT.
PULL THAT WEIGHT. ]

i don't wanna give-
if giving means they dig and dig

took me this long to find out:
[ i don't know anything... ]

lately i've been-
steadily giving away all of my things
retreat to fantasies
adenosine-


DON'T
LET
ME
FUCK
UP
THIS
ESCAPE
PLAN
AGAIN.


will i even know when the time comes?
[ can't miss it if it never does... ]
i still don't know if all life is equal...
[ the more i know: duress + less = me... ]

we always know:
we're always dying.
in hell: ex hail
vapors
love gasoline...
in my hand:
a match made in heaven
yeah-
we always know:
we're always dying.
in hell: ex hail
vapors
love gasoline...
in my hand:
a match made in heaven
yeah...
