Wanting you instead
I was here before
Whirling out your window
I hated you before
It dont change nothing…
I know I was here before 

Don’t make me decide 
I don’t want to be stuck on the wall
If you want me to stay
Barking all the way
Say you hear my call

You know, now what you were missing 
I knew just who you were kissing
Does that change something, my love?
You always meant more 
To me.

Was I given TWO CARDS? I was!
You picked yourself apart
Every day
Take a break!!!!!!

If you were my “friend”, too
Don’t say I love you 
Whoever I was before
I know right now, only right now
Against my will, I’m yours.

Lyrics: 
Im not looking at you ( yes I am ) 
You only wear your dark specs so that nothing
Can ever come through
I get so scared when you look into my eye 
I'd rather be you. 
I'd rather believe nobody.

Im not looking at you 
You only wear your dark specs so you can hide 
Wouldn't do that to you
Or your man, you know I'm just a girl 
Who'd rather be you?
Who'd rather believe nobody? 

So if you ask me to stay, I say so what 
Want me to go away? Im not so 
Surprised anymore, do you still get that way?
Wake me up as I fall asleep on you again, babe.

I'd rather have you
I'd rather have nobody, and nothing.

Yes I Am

OCTOBER 2022

Lyrics: 

If you were not you, and I was not me 
I would not wait 
Yes, you are my God
My only friend, who I love breezily this way
So please, put it in me 
Say you’ll show what’s underneath 
I know if you keep me spinning
I’ll spill all over your front rug 
You always say it’s stupid 
To speak so loose and act so rough 
But I love you 
It ain’t too far 
I love you! 
Disregard, little birdie who 
Knows your heart better than I do

I know if you keep spinning
I’ll spill all over your front rug
You always say it’s stupid
To speak so loose and act so rough 

Put it in me.

Lyrics: 

Woke up from my dream to hear you cry 
You’re still here, are you sad you’re not mine? 
I knew! You knew! 
Woke up from my dream to wonder how…
You got me to shut my god damn mouth 
“How did I do?”
Woke up from my dream to find you’re gone…
By myself in the dark and a dog 
Where did you go ?!

drums+full band version recorded & mixed in north and west philadelphia by nate garcia in full
lyrics: 
cowgirl, when i see you i just want to run 
i dont want to keep hiding from your eye 
do you have the stamina through smoke? 
acting like I dont know you, when i do! 

i guess you could say you didnt know
youre watching me close, what do you know? 

cowgirl i know youre watching me closer than yourself 
my chance to bite the thread where you pull me 
how long should i hold this grudge? 
i dont want to keep running

i guess you could say you didnt know 
youre watching me close what do you know? 
ah yes! you could say you didnt know!
im watching you close, what do you know?

lyrics: 
wanting you instead, i was here before 
whirling out your window, i hated you before 
it dont change nothing, i know 
i was here before 
dont make me decide
i dont want to be stuck on the wall 
if you want me to stay, barking all the way 
say you hear my call !!!
you know now, what you were missing 
i knew, just who you were kisisng 
does that change something, my love? 
you always meant more, to me. 
was i given two cards? I was... 
you! picked yourself apart 
every day, take a break 
if you were my friend, too 
dont say "I love you" 
whoever i was before, i know right now 
only right now, against my will 
im yours.

Barking (Bass Demo)

lyrics: 
its just like i told you 
lying aint free 
keep your promise 
keep your money 
you can never win 

save the last dollar you stole 
to your fucking self
you can never win 

but what do you mean? 
were you just kidding? 
is whats left for me 
ugly or pretty? 
you will only fall 
you wont win at all 

dont retrace your steps 
your bad at acting 
twin karma, i hope that you are laughing 
make my grin your ring 
"live the gimmick, baby!" 

but dont give in to a counterfeit game 
you can never win 
dont listen
youll give in anyway 
you can never win
