The Pest 04:43
from stiffening silence you echo my name a parent of violence, a mother of shame and into the darkness my dreams have grown weaker replaced by a siren, some lecherous speaker and in this place I find myself beyond all control, beyond all help and then something flickers from under my skin poisoning the blood flow and burrowing in
3.
Static 04:36
is it something I've said or done that made us begin to fade? is there nothing I can't do to help repair the cracks I've made? and inside a part of you breaks the choices you've made are all behind you now an echo of things you once knew from out of the blue and crystal clear somehow I hear a music coming on from the past hope to make it last for you like a whisper softly in your ear can you hear it, dear? say you do and within the static you hear some forgotten year some ghost back from the dead I'm falling in love with the noise this mechanical voice that's ringing in my head step inside the home where I live with no soul to give a kiss truth be told my flesh is paper thin and my life would hardly be missed but how can it be too late to visit this place where we were young and free? the lovers though clever and bold, their story's been told there's nothing left to see

Bloodstorm 04:24
I need a way to explain I need to find a new game perpetually disengaged with all in front of me a paranoia consumes constricting all in the room and penetrating the womb that holds my memories a fingernail in my heart tearing the whole thing apart condemning me to the dark for all eternity a shadow moves in behind begins by clouding my mind so cataclysmic but kind in this reality there are no answers inside in all the corners we hide and in the clouds we confide and hope to be set free and so we go on in pain rejecting all that we hate until the blood falls from the skies just like the rain... just like the rain
5.
Saint Thomas 05:53
close your eyes and you're in the Caribbean laying in the sand, your glass within your hand feel the spray of open ocean, the mist upon your skin on the air you hear your name, beckoning you in the air embraces you, healing every wound caressing down your spine, the stars will all align tonight we're just dreaming to be free, we're grounded you and me but at least we have the sea at least we have the water at least we have the sea at least we have the water I'll remember this forever, never let myself forget the feeling that I have now, it holds me in its grip and on the rolling shore, the waves are now no more I'm warm and safe to breathe, just let me rest and breathe just let me be just let me be

if I were to say to you I want you tonight would you know that I was telling the truth? if I were to welcome you into my life would you trust me not to hurt you? oh, nothing is for certain only you and part of you has never left my side you must know what that does to me and something in me doesn't want to be kind doesn't want to hurt you badly oh, you light me like a candle in my dreams in my dreams slowly pictures of you cloud my mind bringing me to a place of lust and I would travel across seas of time just to feel you up against me no nothing else can tempt to feel free to feel free
8.
Darkeater 04:11
a game you never lose is killing all the joy that lives around you a poisonous perfume that permeates the very lungs you breathe through the curtain call is near reflecting all the life you've wasted trying to be someone revered, and loved by all upon your hour of dying the bonds you will betray are broken now and lost in time forever and the fear you hide away will surface now and echo in this nether and what will you say. when faced with all the pain you put yourself through? on this never-ending day you become the very prison that will end you
9.

Death Mask 05:40
contemplate your narrow view, consider all below your body now becomes your tomb, possessing all you know and crawling through the passageway, I'm reaching for the stars enveloping my ignorance, concealing all my scars concealing all my scars in silence I've now learned to live, in fear I walk the earth losing all my pleasantries, losing all my mirth in pestilence I grow myself, in sin I hide away foregoing what once was my health and burying the day burying the day a ghost is moving somewhere near, dust that once was man bleeding through an open wound, collecting all he can and in the dark I hear a voice leading me to doom an end to me I won't forget inside a vacant room inside a vacant room

about

This is my third collection of songs, and came from a pretty extensive period of writing and recording throughout early 2020. This album feels like a merging of the sounds from the previous two albums, and combines moody atmospheric landscapes with dreamy pop melodies. I've worked very hard on this album and I hope it'll show in the music. My goal was the combine the styles I experimented with on the previous two records to really finalize and figure out "my sound." I hope you'll enjoy listening to these recordings, and I hope to have more along the way very soon. Thank you for listening, and enjoy 'A Novelty.'
