about

Derek from Of The Archive plays drums and will collaborate with me on future tracks. It's been a real blessing to work with someone new. Though we've only been able to work remotely, Derek has helped me think about and consider different options for music since the pandemic began. Hope you enjoy our first offering.

lyrics

why'd you have to go and do me wrong
becomes the subject of every song
invested in the business of futile consequence
the world is survived in this clipped tone
what about the rest?
why'd you have to go and do me wrong?
invested in the business of futile consequence
the world is survived in this clipped tone
what about the rest?

impermanence is the only permanence we know
like the snake that eats itself, it's hard to swallow
the crushing weight of everything
and harder still to forget the emptiness
that was once in the gut
in between floorboards the slipped sun saunters
while rainbows are pouring out
a lifetime of protest for the scholars of war
a sassy hyena she feels like death in a box
i suppose we are all just waiting to be opened
in perpetual flux remaining on a whim til' this bulb grows dim
but until then, lighting up like switchboards
in patterned constellation of consolation
electrical storms waiting out the lightning strike
so we can finally come outside and enjoy the weather
or not
you care, to care
