Acoustic side project focused on growth, exploration and annoying the shit out of people.
Inspiration can hit at the strangest times. Lately I've been inspired by some pretty offbeat memories, experiences, readings and ideas. My hope is that I can blend them with the words in my heart and stake my claim of originality. That being said, this is overflow parking. Here, have a seat.

Lyrics
You’re like a hole that slowly Stretches itself out over time. You’re like a house with no foundation And the grass only grows on one side. The day will come to call you out But for now I’ll dry up in your arms They suffocate me, but tonight’s not getting better So I’ll take what I can get my hands on. Used to flash a smile with every lightning strike Used to lie awake to hear your voice at night. I can still abide by all the rules but I, I’ve lost my faith in the vermillion in the rose. I wanted you to know That I think you're ugly now But I suspect That I was too, back then, And just figured it out. But your canvas is your skin And your eyes a camera lens Observing what they force themselves to see. But I would coat your walls In turpentine to dissolve Any semblance of connection to me. Used to flash a smile with every lightning strike Used to lie awake to hear your voice at night. I can still abide by all the rules but I, I’ve lost my faith in the vermillion in the rose. When I think of all the time I wasted Convincing myself that you weren’t a waste of time I can’t help but roll my eyes.
