Her Sleep

January 27, 2009

tired human barely dragging through life in a complex she’s sleeping herself into liquid skin she’s living in a text in the back of her mind life inside the head abstract hours pass darkness spins inside her eyes what’s it all about? I might never find out a mystery lost in time

Anything?

January 24, 2009

set aside my loneliness I’m backing down so far from home and fading now from the uselessness that seems to stray so far away from the fantasy you still take yourself apart because you think you don’t know what you want but could it be you don’t want anything? ambition fades in a sea of […]

On the Edge

January 23, 2009

lights eroding the signs we fall in I’m not taking my time anymore the air was easy to feed between me but I sigh and it sucks out the rest don’t wait around, cause we won’t be needed here silence your sound, cause it’s all we got to give, only asleep and waking alive and […]

This one was on a lot of them, but without the lyrics: place your bets on what we discovered running through this life I’m bending backwards, and it takes forever I can’t forget this time. what’s beginning, and what’s now […]

Lyrics are inspired by my […]

December 8, 2008

No real reference to the early 90s musical style.  More like hanging your head and feeling sorry for yourself.  It was a really quick write from the Twenty-Eight period–I think I only worked on it for a day.  I like the lo-fi sound of it.  And the depressing tone. The base recording was done on […]
