I’m not convinced this is actually good but thought I’d share the work in progress anyway. Moving from kaleidoscopes Somewhere underground Going down the rabbit hole I’m lost inside a sound Open eyes to mediate Filtered through the noise Soon enough this hunt is on It’s not like there’s a choice This … Read more
Today was a very productive day for many lyrics. Over the last little bit, I’ve been chipping away at some stuff that was previously shared here. It’s all part of a seasonal release idea, which is something that was actually ripped off from Weezer. There are a few differences that I’ll reveal once things … Read more
Just smoothed out the rough edges of what I already had and thought I’d share. verse I’m dreaming of foxes Been riding in an ambulance Don’t know where I’m going There’s nothing left to see It’s only my disease verse I’m dreaming of foxes Been riding in an ambulance Don’t know … Read more

Initially in contention for autumn, it really doesn’t fit the theme I’m going for now. Still, the overall vibe and writing … Read more
Awhile back, I talked about a group that would focus specifically on winter 2001. While I hadn’t committed to it fully, Weezer had also inspired exploring a seasonal release of mini lyrical groupings. Although their SZNZ EPs have featured seven songs on the first day of every season, mine would consist of five pieces … Read more
I’ve been working on some random stuff here and there and this is one of those things. I actually have a full group of lyrics finished and ready to go, so I’m hoping to release them next month too. More news on that soon though. For now, here’s the current version of some lyrics I … Read more
