Loner 03:01
Just a loner, as far as I know From shore to shore, head to toe From Point Pleasant to Santa Cruz Was at the North Shore, didn't hear the news Ah, I didn't wanna be found Away from old haunts, and old ways abound Ah, I'm sorry, it's true Life's surely better without you I'm underwater, 50 leagues below the waves And somehow, I've made it through unscathed Trinkets and mementos entangled in kelp If I wanted you, I would've asked for help If I wanted you, I would've asked for help Ah, I didn't wanna be found Away from old ways, and old haunts abound Ah, I'm sorry, it's true Life's surely better without you

Sunlight filters through the dusty attic window A single ray of citrus slices through the grime Feels like time's not real Antiquated modems, shiny shiny heirlooms Shimmer in the dust, glitter in the gloom Sunlight bleeds orange tears The spirits, they harken back Oh the ghouls, they scream right back Moonlight scintillates on the dusty attic window A single constellation shines across the panes Feels like so long ago The tarmac on the rooftop, the cracking wooden frames Cool underfoot, the paint's still the same So long, my former years And the spirits, they harken back Oh the ghouls, they scream right back

Sunday Morning And freshly ended dreams Call me frail or call me boring But the "what ifs?" are mean It starts with you staring at the waves with me Contemplating if you'll even muster up the bravery It's a world that was surely never meant to be You told me in a tongue quite strange that things would change You told me in a tongue quite strange that things would change Sunday morning And yes, I'm awake But the thought of what we could've been It makes me shake

Would things get too frenetic If I were telekinetic? We'll see who pushes who around I'd list all the baddies I'd thwart If I could just teleport Try to find me Even if powers were real I don't think I'll ever heal Tiny and under construction I imagined great destruction I used to find it enlightening Imagining them struct by lightning I'll generate a deadly force field And see that all your blood's spilled Take on all my aggressors I wanted to be the great distressor Even if powers were real I don't think I'll ever heal Tiny and under construction I imagined great destruction

Midwestern lanes, Midwestern streets I guess you're kinda home for me They leer, I glare, I feel impaired And cigarettes, they choke the air Eye contact, you feel attacked It takes one stare to feel assailed When it breaks, make no mistake Connecting's hard when I feel fake Ooh, call me a Martian Ah, cause I'm not human at all Midwestern lanes, Midwestern streets Behemoths, they loom over me, your Glass and steel and concrete steps Metropolis let me reflect Colossal things, reaching so high, and At sunset, absorb the sky Towering above the lake, My heart is sunk beneath the waves Ooh, Is it even a question Oh, if I'm a human at all?

Lucid 02:34
I'm hanging out at an alien gas station I'm on the moon and there's no need for oxygen Swimming in the seas of Jupiter And I can fly further You'll meet me at the bottom of the ocean Or in Tokyo, let's cause a commotion The world is our oyster Behind closed eyes I'm skipping, I'm tripping, I'm slipping But I'm in control A lifetime with you would make me whole When the wisps of one dream fade into black I know for sure that I'll be coming back Let's check out the Taj Mahal, Machu Picchu and Rome Or be seedlings and dig into the loam Talk to the moai on Easter Island Or freeze time and enjoy the silence Synthesize a whole world for us, for us I'm skipping, I'm tripping, I'm slipping But I'm in control A lifetime with you would make me whole When the wisps of one dream fade into black I know for sure that I'll be coming back

Feels like, it feels like I'm in a dream These fleeting moments Feels like I can't make sense of the scene Ooh, it feels just like a dream These fleeting moments Ooh baby, I'm living a dream Ooh, yeah, ooh, these fleeting moments Ooh, feels like I'm living a dream These fleeting moments [goofy vocalizing]

We thought our little bro page was clever But we knew this bullshit couldn't last forever The bro page is dead And don't revive that thread The bro page is dead And don't revive that thread What was once a page with so much clout I've no fucking clue what it's all about So let's smoke a blunt and chug a beer And just forget about what's happened here The bro page is dead And don't revive that thread The bro page is dead And don't revive that thread

about

earlier on in my life I was going to write a book about my experiences, but an album seemed like more fun.

themes of wistful nostalgia, wispy dreams, childhood memories, teenage angst and the mundanity of everyday life are covered here.

come listen and relate.

Recording equipment:
Tascam US-200 Audio/MIDI Interface

Synths/FX: Korg microKorg (A.K.A. the eternal homie)
Vox: Shure SM485
Drums: Logic Pro

Samples on "One Fifty Seven" recorded on my phone on the eastbound 157 bus (duh) either in March or April, idk

Intro sample on "Dusty Attic Window" recorded on the Shure, which somehow picked up FM radio stations playing "What I Like About You" and some really popular top 40 song

recorded in exactly one week in my dorm room

credits

released August 3, 2014

big ups to Gabe Plotkin and Matt Newberg for getting me into synths and getting me confident in songwriting, respectively.

also shouts out to Bros, UIC/Chicago homies and everyone still stuck in sleepy old Fair Lawn, NJ.
