A song I've been working on for a couple of months. Just received the means to record it. (Not an experienced producer)

Some Other Day (Home Demo)

Another one for the winter. Didn't expect to write it, but felt I needed to.  Thanks for listening!

Checking My Phone For You (Home Demo)

Worked long and hard on <2 minutes of sound. I hope any one who listens enjoys! 

Lyrics:
Our love, it tasted like
Our love, it tasted like

The sweetest cherries 
The sweetest cherries

Which were fed just the tears 
of the audience members 
who unfortunately had to 
watch the last several years

Our irrigation systems 
did not account for their sadness 
now our garden is filled with 
salt from their tears

Cherries Pt. 1 (Home Demo)

Lyrics-

You said you'd hop the sea 
just to get away with me
My plans are immature 
compared to your plans
A couple years will those worthless friends
and I'll make it. I'm begging; Or,
three years abroad which you know I can't take and I'm naked

You said Japan was the right plan.
Salty sushi, sand, and some brand new friends.
You said Japan was the right plan.
You said "Japan, let's go to Japan!"

You're too used to
stealing minds.
I'm upset that you've
taken mine.

Sadly I wasn't designed
for a problem I can't define.


You said Japan was the right plan.
Salty sushi, sands, and some brand new friends.
You said Japan was the right plan,
you said "Japan" and left for Japan.

(you said) Let's go to Japan! (Home Demo)

Lyrics-
It's begun to feel a lot like dancing
The way that you and I have been advancing 
Out of each other's sights
And into separate lives

But now I'm shaking in the skin
which you yourself were involved with

There's an empty seat where you used to be
The discoloration that's within your sheets
Proves I used to sleep
Only inches from your cheek
Now my stomach aches from the candy coat
I used to explain why we never worked
Now the end is here
Reasons become clear

And now I'm shaking in the skin 
which you yourself were involved with

I became a liar in the in the wrath that
in your disappointment of me you had
We made each other sin
So much better than being alone again 
Our bodies were the playgrounds of our twenties 
and looking back the moments are so funny
But all good things must end
No sense in getting upset old friend

I hope you're shaking in the skin
which I myself was involved with

I hope you're shaking in the skin
which I myself was involved 
Because I'm shaking in the skin
which you yourself were involved
Hey, after everything that's been
it's clearly time for
The End

A Story To Tell Our Kids That We Knew We'd Never Have (Home Demo)

The ogre children smoke cigarettes
Their butts on the shores that nobody visits
These young kids write poetry
All in vain if they're not a summer fling
Suburban summer scene

I opened up the family screen
didn't expect to see private messaging
It was my brother correspondence with 
some miss he had met last spring 
a list of unreplied messages 
her last replied dated back to 03'
when she stated
"stop messaging me"

We sat on the shore he tore up
scholarships from schools up north 
while thinking about his insecurities 
Hating the fact he cared so much what others thought of him
that he pretended not to care

and then he cried 
tried to take his own life
that's why we say to the very day,
"Thank god that washed up rope broke"

Tragedy Of Sand (Suburban Summer Scene)

(r u interested?)

anxiety in my shoulders 
reckless nervousness in my biceps 
I swell 
I don't want anyone to see
the effects that you have on me 
(?)
contrived excitement 
made by the part of my brain
that craves fulfillment
I'm listening for the sound of a text 
that states, "yeah man let's fucking do this thing!"
you're there listening to my demos 
I'm here insecure as ever

so don't mind my screaming 
like I know my neighbors do
just mistake it as feeling 
cause you've never met me 
and I've never met you

(interested in u)

there's too much 
space between the words
that we send to one another 
to much time to craft the person 
that we think that we want to be 

you grind the keys 
typing 

looking for some profile picture taker 
a whole life story maker 
with the aesthetics that you choose 

you won't stop until the whole world wants 
you won't stop til' the whole just wants to be you

I just want to be you

r u interested? // interested in u.

Laughing so hard that I couldn't breathe
I'm crying so hard that I couldn't breathe

You couldn't breathe when I choked you
Purple pool noodle that you blew through 
put my lips to its end and tricked you
one time that you blindly trusted me 
look where it got you

coughing so hard you couldn't breathe
the water had lodged and you could hardly breathe

(AH)

I watched an episode of King of the Hill
Diagnosed myself with manic depression
all I'm waiting for now is your opinion
you'd prolly roll you eyes and say I'm overreacting
although in my worst I know you thought there was 
something wrong with me
and I'm trying to get to the bottom of it 

Bouts of being passionate
feeling nothing the next minute
I threw a fit cause I couldn't find my keys
you threw a fit cause you cat didn't like me!
(Meowwwww)
