Messy Art 03:40
lyrics

I don't fit in this skin Peeling hands and twisted bones I hear a chorus of nails on a chalkboard It's vaguely emotional Each night I rework my words How many days in a row A test of my will When I splay my heart across the floor I will throw this paint at random And it falls exactly where I planned it Messy art and pencil scratches Seem different now when the moment passes My words are only words; it's all I know to do And it falls exactly where I plan it Tear at my hands and I will stretch I've always been good at keeping secrets The method behind my mess I only like me in the moment And I will throw this paint at random It falls exactly where I planned it Messy art and pencil scratches Seem different now when the moment passes My songs are only songs; it's all I know to do And I fall exactly when I plan it The meaning a secret I'd rather keep kept I am messy art I am just a mess

I could become nothing and I wouldn't be the first To stare at my reflection wondering which one of us Will blink under the weight of questions Demanding proof of my intentions We all know how slowly time will work Given enough time and I can think of anything Though I don't have a history responding much to anything With every word devoid of rhyme But layered meanings in my mind Will tell me no one knows what I am speaking I used to think that I was weathered down and formed by rain But it takes crashing waves to shape the earth and I am still the same Until I find what course of action Will ignite my manic passion I think circles, round and round again Call it incoherent Even I don't know my secrets Will you hear me sing again on nothing Call me incoherent Even I can't say I know my secrets I draw circles til they stand for nothing I draw circles til I become nothing

I Was Almost an Addict in a Play 03:07

I don't understand Why the stars would want to become man When all I am is a shell of words spoken by friends Maybe that's all anyone is Do I strip away All the parts I did not make When I can see resemblance in everything surround How can I be more I am terrified Your voice will overtake mine Introspective questioning has struck its chord I must hold that my hand wrote these words

I've got nothing to share But these falsified terrors And vultures that circle my head To show me they are vigilant In waiting to feast on the dead I'm not one for panic But this constant surveillance Has left me with limited motion A compacted range of emotion The kid never had to go it alone It was simply the way he preferred it It was never me versus the world Self-reliant to the end of the earth I want what we all want For my name to be more than An abstract idea in my brain A decoration on my grave I must not believe in meeting ends I am only who I am again I wait for a voice Or just some hint of noise To explain what goes on in my mind Why it's so exciting to die in my dreams I am greater than life This paper-fast safe Might dissolve into space If one day I feel satisfied If my conscience believes it's justified If I could cut with my words Then I'd turn into ribbons Tie me to something you love So these gutters of rain Don't quite wash me away If I happen to cut down small enough I grow smaller until I become dust I am all and I am one

Take Me Home 03:14
lyrics

I know my words repeats And I know I'm always in my head I am made of ones and zeros I will be my only friend Say I'm alone No, I'm not alone I'm not as alone as I'd like to believe But for now, today fights against me There were whispers I had 17 days to live And they weren't as far off as they seemed The memories of dreams fade as you stay awake I will paint myself yellow until I believe He helps me sleep, he helps me dream He helps me speak and I become I could be someone I love some day Take me home

Ink and Oceans 02:06
lyrics
buy track
I am made of dust and outer space I will just destroy if I cannot create I am just a failed attempt to rhyme I remedy by x-ing out my eyes If I can kill myself on every page Then maybe it will make more room for me to be alive My hands are made of silver, and my head the ocean waves And I can't focus on anything but the ink on the page Only I can say when I will dive Which cloud is the nightmare when you're dreaming through my mind I'm only an artist when the room spins Only when I drown do I begin to see Adrenaline will tell you sharks can kill This is not a wake up call This is just a drill

about

Over is my first collection of works, and was made entirely in my bedroom whenever I could find a quiet moment in the apartment.

Over is me finally starting to fall into rhythm and find my style as a song-writer.

And though I see a lot of room for improvement, I'm proud of this beginning.
