-------------------------------

LYRICS:

I remember the summer of 95
Short nights long drives reflecting on life
Nowhere to go no place to be
Stop lights holding hands just you and me


Starry nights I couldn’t ignore
That feeling oh I wanted it more
Captivated by the city lights
Top down hands up singing into the night

Your hair slicked back in the wind
We never wanted this to end 
To end

I don’t gotta ask when or why
Never gonna forget the look in your eyes
Burning down the highway Pulling 105


I don’t gotta ask when or why
Never gonna forget the look in your eyes
Burning down the highway Pulling 105

Pedal to the floor no need for brakes
Driving just to flee from our mistakes
Turning corners sliding into a drift
This feeling was something I couldn’t resist

Catching the keys to your first car
Finally realizing who we are


I don’t gotta ask when or why
Never gonna forget the look in your eyes
Burning down the highway Pulling 105


I don’t gotta ask when or why
Never gonna forget the look in your eyes
Burning down the highway Pulling 105

Being with you made me feel alive
In the summer
The summer of 95

We realized who we where
In the summer
Of 95

I don’t gotta ask when or why
Burning down the highway Pulling 105


I don’t gotta ask when or why
Never gonna forget the look in your eyes
Burning down the highway Pulling 105

Summer Of '95

This song is near and dear to my heart.

I wrote Operator to remind myself of my love for my partner. To remember to never give up and support one another. 

If you're having a hard time together, this is for you.

I used to call us perfect
But you don’t call anymore
I wanna talk it out
Don't make it a chore


You tell me leave a message
Lying in my bed alone
I see the lights are on
But your heart is never home


CHORUS
__________
One more missed call
It’s breaking my heart
Operator connect my call
Before the fallout starts

One more missed call
Don’t tear us apart
Operator connect my call
Before the fallout starts

VERSE 2
__________

Please don’t hang up
I don’t wanna fight anymore
Together forever
That’s always what we swore







CHORUS
__________

One more missed call
It’s breaking my heart
Operator connect my call
Before the fallout starts

One more missed call
Don’t tear us apart
Operator connect my call
Before the fallout starts



CHORUS
__________


Don’t make this harder than it is
I just wanna be with you no matter what anyone says


POST CHORUS
__________

No more missed calls
You’re breaking my heart
Operator connect my call
Before the fallout starts

No more missed calls
Stop breaking my heart
Operator connect my call

Operator

Dandelion how are you so sweet
Thriving under steps on the concrete
Tragedy embedded in your roots
Persisting but never bearing fruit

Come sit with me in the garden half past noon
Tears like rain watering me with your gloom
Dandelion
Trying so hard to bloom
Just to whither away all too soon

Dandelion tell me you're alright
Promise I'll stay by your side tonight
Beauty hidden within the mud
For you the fight is never won

Come sit with me in the garden half past noon
Tears like rain watering me with your gloom
Dandelion
Trying so hard to bloom
Just to whither away all too soon

[Stepped over every day without a glance
I found my place in the world in your hands]

And I will sit with you in the garden half past noon
Wipe away your tears and all your gloom
Dandelion
You tried so hard to bloom
I promise I'm still here with you

(Mixed by Jason Tanners)

POV [ FT. P A X ]

When you sit alone 
Do memories of us 

Flood 
Your 
Mind

Long talks on a telephone
Saying I love you from

Dusk 
To
Dawn


A memory that I can't erase
All the tears you wiped
From my face
How do we get back to that place?

Cause you where heaven
And I was our doom
(Recognizing chaos in full bloom)

You're still heaven that I know
But as above is so below

(You still loved the chaos in full bloom)

Now that you're gone
There's no place left around that

Feels
Like
Home

Placing my heart up on the shelf
Knowing that it's time to 

Fix
My
Self

Saying things that I don't mean
All the signs that
 I could not see
(I want you to know what you mean to me)

Cause you where heaven
And I was our doom
(Recognizing chaos in full bloom)

You're still heaven that I know
But as above is so below

(I'm no longer the chaos in full bloom

As Above So Below

(Do You Still) Love What You Found

I have taken a very long break. I've sat for a long time (almost too long) with myself. Coming to realizations of who I am. What I am. What my existence means to myself. I no longer need another person to define the worth of myself.

--------

We dance on the edge of deception
Caught in a web
Of false connections
I don't like what I am and I'm drowning
In a sea
Of compromise
Losing myself in your alibis

I don't like
Who I am with you
Lost in the shadows
Skies painted in blue
Swimming in fields of you where the fireflies weep
And I can't catch myself
'Cause I'm in way too deep

I lost myself in the echoes
Caught in the web of your laughter
Now I drown in regret
Of what really mattered
I thought I found love
But who am I to tempt fate
Our ashes are scattered and it's too late

I don't like
Who I am with you
Lost in the shadows
Skies painted in blue
Swimming in fields of you where the fireflies weep
And I can't catch myself
'Cause I'm in way too deep

Who I Am With You

Loser,  Baby (Butit'sPiperRiggsandBlueBionic)

Lyrics-

Your eyes
Twin stars
In the velvet sky
Guiding through me darkness
By and by

I'll hold your hand through black holes
Till we're nothin' 
But stardust

I don't mind oceans
And I don't mind the seas
'Cause
I'd cross them all if it meant
You were
Right here - next to me

Across the cosmic planes
A place where we both roam
Each moment apart
We wish we were both back home
Bound by the gravity
Of our affections
Defying distance
Unwavering connection

I don't mind oceans
And I don't mind the seas
'Cause
I'd cross them all if it meant
You were
Right here - next to me

/I'll hold your hand through black holes until we're nothin' but star dust./

Sunshine (FT. Alex Norman)

Out of character I have turned 30 this year. So many things have changed from this point in my life from when I was a small kid sitting in a circle talking to other kids about what we wanted to be when we grew up. 

Instead of sitting there coloring, watching cartoons and playing outside I'm now working, paying bills and making decisions that - when I was 5- thought I would know what I'm doing.... but I don't know. I still don't have the answers. I'm still scared.

I just want to go back.

30 Candles [Happy Birthday]

I remember when the stars would shine
Reflecting in your eyes
They were all mine 

I saw the light dimming
But I won't it go
I wish upon the fading night
That I could be 
Your guiding light

I wish upon the silent stars
That I could mend your broken heart

When the world is cold
and you feel to far from home
I'll be lost in the silence
That
You chose to leave

Please hold me close
Like
Gravity

I saw the light dimming
But I won't it go
I wish upon the fading night
That I could be 
Your guiding light

Oh meet me right at the start.

Empty texts 
And late night calls
Swear I didn't

Mean to make you fall

You needed love let me
Play the part

Now I just play make believe with a heavy heart

You can't handle my heart
You can't handle my soul
Fell for a vision
Not the whole

You can't handle my heart
You can't handle my soul
Now I'm fallin' apart
Meet me right back at the start

Said you loved the way
I made you feel

Vision

𝑳𝒚𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒔;

Woke up to the empty side of the bed
Another day, just me and the voices stuck inside my head
No surprise no one is here left here to stay
Guess I’ve gotten used to watching them walk away

I’ve built a house out of silence oh it's my home
No need for company when you’re always on your own
The echoes in these walls oh they know me the best
They never leave
But they never let me rest

I don’t even ask "why me?" anymore 
It’s just the way it is
What I’m headed for
I’ve made peace with the mess that’s my life
Maybe broken is just by design

Maybe 
Broken
Is just 
By design

Alone again it’s no surprise
I’ve been drowning in the dark
With no light behind my eyes
No light behind my eyes
Nothing ever sticks nothing ever stay
Guess I’m built for losing
 But it’s always been that way

Alone again yeah I’m used to the fall
It doesn’t hurt as much when you’ve lost it all
I was born for the lonely I can feel it in my bones
I’m fine being broken 
'Cause broken feels like home
'Cause broken feels like home

The mirror’s just a reminder of my face
Same empty look the same hollow space
I don’t fight the dark no I let it stay
Why chase the light when it always fades away?


Alone again yeah I’m used to the fall
It doesn’t hurt as much when you’ve lost it all
I was born for the lonely I can feel it in my bones
I’m fine being broken

DUALITY

While this may be my favorite song I think I have ever released, I will say that the meaning and person who this song was written about shakes me to my core in ways I hope no one ever has to feel.

LYRICS;

Swore I saw forever in your eyes
Burnin' bright like
City lights
Just a pit stop
Just a spark
One way ticket to a
Bro -
Ken -
Heart

Now I'm left with a paper heart
Torn up
Edges
Rip me apart

(3, 2, 1!)

You almost loved me
You almost held on tight
A spark
You let
Die in the night
You love me
You hate me
You wanna see me cry
(You wanna see me cry?!)
Which is it?
Tonight
Tonight

(Which is it tonight?)

I was holdin' on for nothin'
Holdin' on for the show
Can't believe I missed the signs
But I got no more tears to cry

How was I so blind?
You were the one 
But only in my mind

(3, 2, 1!)

You almost loved me
You almost held on tight
A spark
You let
Die in the night
You love me
You hate me
You wanna see me cry
(You wanna see me cry?!)
Which is it?
Tonight
Tonight

Tell your friends that I'm fuckin' crazy
And that's alright
Guess we won't count tonight
No we won't count tonight
Tonight
Tonight

(*Beat by GAXILLIC*)

Tonight

I was walking this world
Half asleep

A quiet heart with secrets to keep
Every look every touch you're a melody
Every laugh every sigh you're eternity
A song so sweet
You're just suffocating me

You weren't what I thought I'd need
You weren't the dream I dreamed
But somehow
You lit
A fire
In me
Now you're all that I breathe

I don't need the air 
Oh I don't
Need the sky
In a world of uncertainty 
Let me be your reason w h y

You weren't what I thought I'd need
You weren't the dream I dreamed
But somehow
You lit
A fire
In me
Now you're all that I breathe

You walk in to the room the air
Disappears
Heart's racin'
'Cause it's been chasin' you for years

Chiaroscuro

Dust in the air - Oh it's hard to breathe
The ground is giving out - Shaking under our feet
Everyone's running - Everyone's scared
I'd rather be here holdin' someone
If it's the end - We're already home....


We're all out of time
But baby, we've got tonight
I'll hold you close
Till the stars loose their light

And if this is how the story ends
No more goodbyes just close your eyes

Oh, no more goodbyes

If it's the end just let there be us
I'm stuck behind the walls that I've built myself
I don't need a rescue - I don't need a plan
All I need - Is your hand


We're all out of time
But baby, we've got tonight
I'll hold you close
Till the stars loose their light

And if this is how the story ends
No more goodbyes just close your eyes

(Dust in the air but you're all that I breathe)

Oh, no more goodbyes

The End

You asked me what's wrong for the 5th time tonight
I say nothing to avoid another fight

Please love me like you mean it
But you still dream in someone else's bed

Say you can wait
But the cracks start to show
Every kiss feels like a battle
Every touch feels cold

I know that you're trying
I know that it hurts
When you're second to someone
That isn't even yours

I wanna love you like I mean it
Like I don't dream in someone else's bed
But I'm still chasin' down the feelin'
Of somethin' that's already dead

You told me stories and you lied to my face
But now I'm stuck here praying for grace

You swore you'd catch me if I ever fell
But now I'm drowning all alone in our hell

Let me be here
I wanna be home
But my heart's got a habit
Of
Digging
Up 
B O N E S

I wanna love you like I mean it
Like I don't dream in someone else's bed
But I'm still chasin' down the feelin'
Of somethin' that's already dead

You asked me what's wrong for the last time tonight
I say nothing - but we both know I lied

EXODUS (Ft. Tre)

You run like blood down fractured walls
Avoid me and I feel small
You burn the bridge then beg for the calm
I scream in silence but I play along

You pull away like I'm the flame
But when it's love we both burn the same

I bend to fit your fear again 
You close the door but I let you in
Call it sickness 
Call it change
You disappear but the ashes remain

Your silence screams your touch retracts
A tender wound that always cracks
You shut me out while  I let you in
I lost myself where you begin 

I bend to fit your fear again 
You close the door but I let you in
Call it sickness 
Call it change
You disappear but the ashes remain

You call me too much but pull me close
Then disappear when I need you most
You build a war inside my chest
You call it peace while I regress

I bend to fit your fear again 
You close the door but I let you in
Call it sickness 
Call it change
You disappear but the ashes remain
We built this house outta memories 
There's no lock didn't need a key
Walls of love you'll never see
It coulda been just you and me
