She Never Says Goodbye

TO BE YOURS

What Price A Smile

Give a man a mask, and he will tell you the truth - Oscar Wilde

Devil and the Deep Blue

Dancing Alone (feat. Sebas)

The cherry blossom start
A summer with all the bugs
We stumble out for air
Like we've never seen the world
The tags inside our collars
Cut them out for good
And wash them till they're soft

I can tell
You're gonna leave a mark on me
All as well
We're weaning off cetirizine

The skin we lost is settled
In corners we don't go
And growing like the guilt
Of never calling home

I can tell
You're gonna leave a mark on me
All as well
We're weaning off cetirizine
I can tell
You're in it till you can't be seen
For a while
And then we're trading allergies

Performed by Stray Fossa (W. Evans, N. Evans, Z. Blount)

Blossomer

Buy on vinyl

Trapped in a way
Perusing it all
I could just scroll
Around the universe alone
It's not like I care
'Til sometimes I do
Notice the leak that's
Slowly filling up the room

Day's last breath is spent
Drenched in your silence

The sun is angled low
Animates the shore
Shadows running out to sea
Into the swell

Took a trip
Deep in the week
Had to get out
Because the walls began to peel
The ginkgo and oak
Showered the street
The mid-morning ghost
You know that I can sometimes be

And I don't mind
Water burns our eyes
Throws us from all sides
A chance to surface right

As sun is angled low
Animates the shore
Shadows running out to sea
Into the swell
All your breath is spent
Falling through the sand
Drenched in the silence
