A well-inspired lullaby whose words are undefined resounds throughout my cerebrum, and echoes through my mind. And I would let my feelings out like you know I should and I would tell you how I felt if only I could, if only I could A well-constructed skyscraper: dimensions yet unknown. The hammers pound my temples out: my brain’s construction zone. A well-thought-out invention but the purpose lies at rest. Some food for thought to whet the faithful thirsting in my chest. And all these thoughts above my mind float high and out of sight. I’d climb up on a ladder… oh, but I’m afraid of heights.

Your reaction was priceless when I told you I loved you. They surrounded your house and I couldn’t retreat. I was embarrassed beyond being naked in a mob scene, The way that you scared me was a talent so sweet. I turned around, mortified, to see you there smiling. A smile I’ve never seen on your face so concrete. You jumped in my arms and I lifted you sideways, Never again with the taste of defeat. With tears in my eyes as I kissed you so gently, Never before was my life so complete. “I’ll never let go,” you whispered to my ear, so softly. And then I woke up from my cold, lonely sleep.

wheat thins 01:38
remember the time you poured milk in the candle yeah well neither do I and we laughed well after midnight and you broke your headphone jack I don’t remember why you had milk and candles or how much we drank that night but it was a good night and I needed to feel good if only for a moment’s time and remember the time I tried to wake you up after the cot collapsed beneath your head and I threw all the m&m’s right at your face and played an air raid siren I don’t remember why we had m&m’s or how much we drank that night but it was a good night and I needed to feel good if only for a moment’s time

gallons 00:22
I guess I'll be playing alone tonight. It's well established; I've lost the fight. So I'll lead this company into the deep blue and I'll bleed an extra gallon for you.
6.
It’s been so long Since I’ve written you a song Just when I thought that you were gone For good Is when you froze all of my thoughts Again Because You lied to me all of this time I thought I’d offer you a deal But first we have to get rid of The past Because You hid your feelings for and from me I thought that you deserve a penalty Of living only in and for The past Oh yes Do you remember that? How you used to hold my hand? And I called you in the night? (Or early in the morning) Through the thunder and the clear Skies If only for Another minute of my life I would consider it a day Well spent I hope You can find a way to repent For all the pain you caused me And all the times I said I’m sorry And that’s the plan I wrote you a song I hope it echoes through your head Like the whispers of the dead And when you hear all of these truthful words I hope that you will be reminded Of all those times you broke my heart But now I’m hoping for a new start

it’ll put hair on your chest they say, they say but never at rest are they, are they “you’re manly at best” touché, touché but i cannot be your beard for late in the night cafe, cafe with a primitive sight of prey, our prey we’re rising upright obey, obey when the sun finally disappeared
8.
it’s odd we talk about these things and it fazes us for naught - i dreamt: i sat upon your bed my pants around my knees your finger touched my healing wound - i grabbed your wrist embraced it brought your blood unto my lips and engulfed your carpal tunnels in a canopy of love - and then i pressed my wrists against yours and the scars stained me instead and you smiled i held your hand and then i died enough deaths for the two of us

never 03:07
you are my best friend and i love you to no end so i've really got to know why you have to let me go you said i never want to see you again i never want to see you again i never want to see you again my one and only friend over summer we talked twice and we sat like stupid mice staring dumbly in your eyes trying to pick at your disguise i tried my very best not to end up like the rest but we grew apart at last and it happened way too fast when you said i never want to see you again i never want to see you again i never want to see you again my one and only friend you've got your friends at school and they think that they are cool with a bottle filled with rum jesus christ they're fucking dumb you've got to understand, they don't love you like i can i mean, as a friend of course but they treat you so much worse they said i never want to see you again i never want to see you again i never want to see you again my one and only friend you were my best friend and i loved you to no end so you really got to know that i have to let you go they said i never want to see you again i never want to see you again i never want to see you again my one and only friend

about

this was supposed to be my first full-length album. it turned out to be ~22 minutes long.
since this album was completed, my style has changed drastically, though it was only a few short months. these tongue-in-cheek tracks feature a few actual riffs, and lyrics written three years ago by a immature 15-year-old me bragging about getting drunk.
