Live From The Floor

Slow Burn (demo instrumental)

Lyrics:

oxygen is carried through the veins
lack of blood means lack of air to the brain
fainting and sleeping are one in the same
slipping to sleeping in my own way

maybe i never tried hard enough
maybe i never tried at all

stoic and manic and tired
if you know me then you know that I
love liars
They know exactly what you want to hear
they take your heart and hold it dear


maybe i never tried hard enough
maybe i never tried at all
maybe i never tried hard enough
maybe i never tried at all

saddest squid, who drowned in ink
silent sea of saline tears
careless kid that could not blink
“today’s the day” he said for years

maybe i never tried hard enough
maybe i never tried at all

in the papers, i can predict
what the obituary’s writ
my family bloodline after “he is survived by…”

Familiar Stranger - I Never Tried At All

My love
How quickly the times goes
How quickly we grow old

We’ve been so busy
Tending to the garden,
Watching our children,
Begetting the begotten.

My love
How quickly the time goes

We’ve been so busy
Tending to the garden,
Watching our children,
Begetting the begotten.

My love,
Just a fading little dot.

These things don’t last forever 
They don’t have to, to be beautiful.
and we won’t last forever,
but my God, are you beautiful.

These things don’t last forever 
They don’t have to, to be beautiful.
and we won’t last forever,
but my God, are you beautiful.

These things don’t last forever 
They don’t have to, to be beautiful.
and we won’t last forever,
but my God, are you beautiful–

my love.

Snow White

The happy dreams I’m having
leaves the morning with a chill
How can I keep imploring
To help me up this hill

Without this sense of purpose
I’m mourning my own will
How can I keep ignoring
The prospect of the kill

Hide my soul
Sever my head
Eat my heart and leave me dead
The fastest path to silence
Is bleeding in your bed
Hide my soul
Sever my head
Eat my heart and leave me dead
The fastest path to silence
Is bleeding in your bed

I’m waiting for an answer
to come in any form
Be it creeping on me slowly
Or breaking down my door

Belonging to no country
I have no solid form
Im liquid in all aspects
Im slipping through the floor 

The sadder dreams i’m seeing
are mirrors in disguise
looking like a window
but only to my eyes

I’m tired and i’m sleeping
just so I can find
what I once was dreaming
a place where I’m alive.

Hide my soul
Sever my head
Eat my heart and leave me dead
The fastest path to silence
Is bleeding in your bed
Catch my eyes
Hold my gaze
Hold my hand and take me away
Now that I am dying
I can live another day.

Cotton and Down

Probably my favorite track off of Sound of Silver. 
Got a chance to see them play live about a year ago and it was pretty great.
Everything was done with stuff near my desk because I'm lazy and because the only instrument in my apartment is my guitar.

Someone Great (LCD Soundsystem Cover)

Could you be 
the aiding specter
rendering 
the ache of love to graves?

Fawning 
for your lip’s press tender,
maybe I’m just falling again.

Failing for this again.
Falling for new commands.
Wailing for holding hands,
I was crawling then.

Do I need
to be spellbound,
and become
whole in serpent’s charm?

Addiction
for body on top of body,
afflicted with lonesome wanting.

Failing myself again
Falling for your curve and bend.
Wailing in my descent,
the unspoken demand.

Spellbound

Autobiography

Heavily inspired by LCD Soundsystem and Pavement, my two favorite bands.
Poorly mixed because of its title.

All My Songs (Are Shit)

playing music in the basement is the highest form of emotional catharsis

oh, nevermind

This started as a song about my new car and ended up as a song about wanting every soft female singing voice I hear.
