Die Sad About It 02:56
lyrics
come inside this plastic tampering physical and essential struggling nothing wrong with my circuitry run defiant again uncomfortably die sad about it die sad about it brightwork thoughts i hear a middle place coffee glance don’t look to glyphs to explain headache quiet miles to painted lights forehead up until i flinch inside die sad about it die sad about it

Thwarted And Hungry 03:13
lyrics
"She is exactly what this place wants her to be. In this way, she is free. " Who shook you down at the dadaist rally sourly obstinate eyes full of panic you’re crawling backwards perpetually backwards everpresent pinpricks the mantra you’re ignoring watch the scene play out watch the scene play out watch the scene play out watch the scene play out maybe I hurried it’s all so involuntary they-state variety with the small messy symbols it’s all so idyllic accessorized longings curiously different betrayed little changeling watch the scene play out watch the scene play out watch the scene play out watch the scene play out Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. princess attrition it’s a lucid formality such visibility such a messy location every command is paralytic freedom clutching dispassionately with pinpoint precision life is impermanent but this is forever we disobedient thwarted and hungry you know what happens your shame and your struggle the dark and her blinkered thwarted and hungry Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. Obedience is black and white. You listen or you don't. "our every move is the new tradition"

Billets-Doux (ft Devon Jurassic) 04:03
lyrics
writing billets-doux day to day to day a flash i cannot chase a light i wish to stay scribbles in the clouds a scale i mean to sway i won't push too hard please don't run away ley lines heart to heart pulling me your way dragging me across tar pits of delay scribbles in the clouds a scale i mean to sway i won't push too hard please don't run away escalator face evening's slow decay empty cups and plates stifling cold dismay scribbles in the clouds a scale i mean to sway i won't push too hard please don't run away sleepwalking through life dreaming i once may share this ride with you ride it all the way scribbles in the clouds a scale i mean to sway i won't push too hard please don't run away

So Happy Here 01:49
lyrics
You could be so happy here If you let yourself You could be so happy here If you let yourself You could be so happy here If you let yourself You could be so happy here If you let yourself down

Is This What You Want 01:54
lyrics
Is this what you want is this what you are don't make me say it's over

about

Look. I know you don't come here for artistic statements or pretension, so I'll give it to you straight: After FAWM last year, I wrote a bunch of songs. And I finished five of them. And they're just sitting there on the hard drive looking at me. Like they don't want to wait for that Big Important Banger I can't finish the lyrics for. Or that squibbly one with the Moog. Or the song that just has one line, and it's about dicks.

Nobody wants to be on the same record as that.

So I'm releasing these tunes, of which four are pretty good, so that they can go off into the world and be listened to and petted and cooed over.
