So, you wanted out
No winter in this house
The things I never said
Well, guess we’ll build again
Taliesin
What didn’t I do
Good grief, you bury me deep
And now the fire’s out
And now I’m all worn out
The things I never said
Well, guess I made my bed
Taliesin
What didn’t I do
Good grief, I guess they told you
So you took refuge
But did you ask me to
So you took refuge
And now I’ve lost you
So you took refuge
But did you ask me to
So you took refuge
And now I’ve lost you

I’m alright, i’m ok
Would you believe me
Anyway
So put on your smile
And wear it for a little while
It’s a fine line
Between faking it
And breaking it
So put on your smile
And wear it for a little while
By, by, by
By, by, by
This is how you get by
This is how you get by
This is how you get by, by, by, by
This is how you get by
This is how you get by
This is how you get by, by, by, by
So put on your smile

I’m done convincing you
What about the things you do
I thought we’d build a life for two
What about the things you do
I’m done with existential woes
And the seasons come and go
Seems like the architecture’s wrong
But I know that I can carry on
When I stop, and I see
This mess in front of me
Nevermind that I lost my mind
Finally put the pieces
And build something
Hold on tight, play it right
‘Til I find my way
I don’t know how to play this game
And I know I can’t afford the shame
Seems like it all went up in flames
Seems like I gotta start all over
When I stop, and I see
This mess in front of me
Nevermind that I lost my mind
Finally put the pieces
And build something
Hold on tight, it’s alright
‘Til I find my way
Oh say, can’t you see
What this new normal means
Nevermind
Lost my way
Cry hail, Mary
For the life
For the life, for the life of me

Kinship

Soon you’ll have come and gone
But who do you think you are
Why
You say you want sympathy
But when were you there for me
Why
It’s not the olden days
It’s more than a last name
You may be next of kin
But you can’t phone it in
It’s not the olden days
It’s more than a last name
What’s the use in faking
Let it go
Why

I saw some movement in
You said, that you saw it too
All I know
That I meant it, too
Come with me
So what, you made a mistake
I swear, that it’s not too late
All I know I won’t let you fall
If you come with me
I’ll be, i’ll be there
Don’t be, don't be scared
I’ll be, i’ll be there
Don’t be, don't be scared
I know you’ll find your way
And when you do, they’ll say
I know you found your way
And in the meantime, you’ll be safe
You’re such a
Creature of comfort
All I know is it breeds
Familiarity
I know you’ll find your way
And when you do, they’ll say
I know you found your way
And in the meantime, you’ll be safe
You’ll be safe

Blood Is Red

Why don’t you go
And clear your head, you said
Alright, I guess I’ll go
I said
Climbed in the car
Engine ignite
And by my side you rode for
A little while
Took to the road
Vanishing point
It stretched for miles
Like my sorrow
Maybe if the miles are high
I’ll forget the pain for
A little while
The night is black
But your blood is red
Took to the wood
Camouflage black
But then headlights show doe eyes
Staring back
Their knowing look
Bright like the stars
Bright like I knew you once
Were before
The night is black
But your blood is red
It’s time to go
Then you said
The rubber’s worn
It’s time to rest my weary head
So home we went
And by my side
An empty seat
Just me and the lonely night
The night is black
But your blood is red

Good Intentions

I’ll make it up
I’ll make it up to you
Whatever happened to
Happily, ever after
There is so much more
That we could be
But you give me the runaround
Well, what’s to come
If I could convince you that
I am more than
Good intentions
But you dive so low
And I just don’t know
When you dive so low
And you dive so low
Whatever happened to
Happily, ever after
There is so much more
That we could be
But you give me the runaround
Well, what’s to come
If I could convince you that
I am more than
Good intentions
But you dive so low
And I just don’t know
When you dive so low
And you dive so low
When you dive so low
I’ll make it up
I’ll make it up
I’ll make it up
All up to you
I’ll make it up
Or we’ll break it up
I’ll make it up
All up to you
I’ll do better next time
I am more than good intentions
Bet on me
Just don’t tell me it’s the last time
I am more than good intentions
Bet on me

I’m so grateful this crossed my path. This album is so beautiful. All the clear technique and mastery and vision are kinda secondary to the fact that this album brought me calm and joy during one of the most difficult times in my life. Yeah, grateful.

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.

Sunny alt-pop with immediately hummable melodies centered around the idea of human connection.
