Chamber of Reflection INTRO Melodica Cover Mac DeMarco

Thank you for listening ~ Parkade

Porchlight - recorded inside my van "Jellybean", while on the midnight ferry from Tsawwassen to Nanaimo, summer of '23 (written winter of '22?)

Green - mostly recorded inside my work truck early spring of '23, parked on the beach at Lake Isabella (written winter? of '22?)

LYRICS - PORCHLIGHT

Darkness clinging to the corners of the evening
The crowded streets turn into long dirt roads
When I pull into the driveway, what will I see?
Have you left the porchlight on for me?

Oh, how could I ever forget
The sound of your smile
The shape of laughter in your eyes
Stopped counting the months and the miles

Picking up roses from the gas station
Coming back to you with no expectations
When I pull into the driveway, what will I see?
Have you left the porchlight on for me?

Oh, how could I ever forget
The sound of your smile
The shape of laughter in your eyes
Stopped counting the months and the miles

Porchlight

LYRICS - GREEN

	
Why won’t you tell me what you dream about?
Something you don’t wanna say out loud?
Somewhere down those railroad tracks,
Some place you can’t ever go back.

A trail of crumbs, the cloud of dust
Smelled the exhaust, picked at the rust
Green like the edge of your broken glass
One more time to waste my chance
One more chance to waste my time
Go to the grave with you still on my mind

Green

lyrics:
Do I have a good reason to be paranoid 
Am I paranoid about being paranoid 
Why do these people keep talking to me 
Why do they think that I want to speak 

Just go, goooo, just go, gooooooo 

Don’t pretend that you’ve seen me I haven’t been here 
I’ve been working on learning how to disappear 
For my next magic trick I want you to watch close 
As I snap my fingers and take off your nose 

Don’t take off your clothes... as I snap my fingers and you take off your clothes? 

If you had the power to read my mind 
I couldn’t tell you what you would find 
Besides calliope music and an orange peel 
And a daydream of being an electric eel 

Don’t look too hard, (how will you be paying?) on my debit card 

Sure I’m watching where I’m going 
Can you see that my tires aren't slowing 
Maybe I’m not being all that cautious 
But I can’t pull over if someone gets nauseous 

Don’t puke in my car, please don’t puke in my car 

Have you ever seen the whites of your eyes dry out 
As you stare into the mirror and begin to shout 
“My skin is moulting! Not again! 
I want it to stop n I’m tired of pain” 

Hey man, we’ve all gotta change to grow again! 

I’ve got a hangnail on every finger 
And I never said that I was a good singer 
Thank you to all of you just for listening 
Thanks to the ocean for waving and glistening 

juususs ss sgooo goooo, justtt gooo, GGOOOOo

I only want to be taken seriously when I'm not embarrassed by myself

in perpetual memory of the dreams of the ill. without injury, towards pleasure. from time, memory. 

Because it's taking me ages to get around to doing anything, I'm going to hesitantly release this shittily recorded version of this song to pressure myself into re-recording it and finishing the goddamn album! my fingers are crossed that this is motivation enough. 

"Hei mihi! quod nullis amor est medicabilis herbis."

From time, memory. (demo?)

nostalgic 

mostly janky demos and snippets because I'm too distracted to finish things :~)
