Methadone 03:56
Why do you have to make this so hard? I'm on a methadone, trying to bear myself alone, and all the space therein. You're like my heroin, I can feel you beneath my skin, and behind my eyes. Why do you have to make this so hard? How am I supposed to trust the guy who fucked it up so bad for so long? I know it's hard to believe I'm true, but I've told you before that you are the only one I love. I'm going to trust you on this one, because I can't leave myself behind. I'm going to trust you on this one, because I can't trust myself in hindsight.

Glass Spider 07:02
we climbed to the mountain top to see the man on the moon and the stars fall in the winter before it all the songs were planted deep in our souls and the seasons change in the world on the living and that summer bore the fruit that would make life worth living but winter lingers on in the dusty green glass in the windows of the pawn shops and I'd try to dust it off but the dim fog and candlelight are powers beyond my might I sing abalone and sunshine but clouds are gaining and the fields in the west are gonna have a hard time but we sowed in the summer heat and we prayed for rain through sweat and dirt in the humidity the the glass spider saw it all like a fogged mirror of what's to come as we cleaned out that broken down shed weapons haunted by the lives their ammunition took and the glass spider shows it all like a thousand mirrors in a hall so we smoked in the desert air till it blocked out the sun telling tales of wars already won and it's true what they say as your life moves on that it all comes back to a single one to the glass spider in the shed to the glass spider in the shed to the glass spider in my head

I hope this whiskey can wash wash down this lump in my throat I hope this whiskey can wash wash down what water wont when I see you tonight I'll have star-crossed eyes I'll have stars in my eyes just like every time I hope this whiskey can wash wash down a life of hurt because if you keep it comin' little bird I'll play rock and roll forever

about

This is a free digital EP of 4 songs mostly recorded in my bedroom. It's also an indulgence of my taste for unholy amounts of reverb.
