Seeing Stars 03:46
lyrics
buy track
How do you change a mind? I'm so tired of losing time When did it go so south? My foot is in my mouth Every single time I'm guilty of some crime So many little lies I tell myself so well Found my voice But not my mind I've had these dreams For all my life Seeing stars They're in my eyes Falling Faster Down the slide How do I save my mind? It's so long past time Let all that anger out And kill that doubt How do you see yourself? You've played the part so well To be a shining light Takes some time to get it right Found some time To calm my mind I feel it still The fear and guilt I'm a soldier But the ammo's dry Well, I've got my hands and I've got my knife Help me, Athena I need your light Your grey-eyed gaze Is on my mind So long, I've been wading through the night So long, I've been waiting for the light

Stagger and Spin 03:38
lyrics

Hamsters in their wheels Tire rubber squeals On this rock that spins Leaf on the wind Brittle moments pass Scattered like glass Pieces of our souls Left in this place I could smell your perfume Standing like a statue Stumbling to the bathroom Shot into the vacuum Circuits in the place Five dollar face Clowns all in their cars Claimed all the stars Faster than the wind Stagger and Spin In this peaceful place Try not to wake I can smell your perfume Staring like a soldier Listening from the next room Sucked into the vacuum

Smoke and Mirrors 03:32
lyrics

All my life I've had these diamonds in my eyes Trying to see beyond the shine Edging closer to the chasm of my mind Leave my problems where they lie Fall asleep Grind your teeth Clarity Wait and see There's a pinprick in the back of my mind All my life I've had to wonder why You're misunderstanding me Saw the traffic from the overpass Made my choices and I picked myself last I've been waiting for the train to come to rest Lost my way, I think I failed some test Penitence I'm on the fence To be free Is what I need There's a nagging in the back of my mind There is something in your eyes You're misunderstanding me

Lines 02:55

Where the lines lie Let's toss them aside Break the limelight There's nowhere to hide Take a wild swipe To swat down their lies Takes a child's eyes To see all the signs You've gotta be strange To win at this game You've gotta have steel To keep it this real When the lion's share Is high in the sky Let the lines blur And open your eyes Let your light shine Out into the night It's a high crime To sleep through this life You've gotta be strange To win at this game You've gotta have steel To keep it this real

Pareidolia 03:20
lyrics

I see what I want to see Pareidolia, Pareidolia Tracing your face through the darkness Pareidolia, Pareidolia I'm only sometimes The monster in your closet And only sometimes The angel on your shoulder Whenever I"m blue I'm looking for you And when I feel grand I reach for your hand I see you in front of me Pareidolia, Pareidolia Looking into your eyes Pareidolia, Pareidolia You're only sometimes The moon I'm looking up at And only sometimes The stream I'm staring into Whenever I cry I feel so alive I hope I can stay I'm looking your way But I will see what I'm meant to see Moving forward, moving forward And you can see everything in me Going forward, going forward

Head Underwater 04:15
lyrics

Asleep on the floor Anxious for more What was it all for? Open my door Try not to wander Head underwater Just like my father Head underwater Feet on the floor Eyes looking forward Stuck on the tracks Lost in the stack Don't be a bother Head underwater Run from the monster Head underwater Out on the surface Of the moon Running in circles I'll see you soon, I'll see you soon Put on a record Be a cartoon Tell me a story Believe in me, I believe in you We are the children of the defeated See everything for all of the pieces Beautiful things live on the horizon Look for the strength to go out and find them Keep afloat

To Be Loved 02:50

To be loved Is to be unafraid To be loved Is to be understood To be loved It is to be saved How I need All this love in my world Please don't mind me I'm just addicted to your soul It's never enough for me So give your love to me To be loved Is to be protected To be loved Is to be seen To be loved Is to be resurrected How I love What you're saying to me Please ignore me I'm just attracted to your heart So give your love to me It's never enough for me

Falling Leaves 04:15
lyrics
buy track
Eyes like honeycombs Fates we'll never know They depend on us In defense of us Heard that silly sound It was frozen underground But we dug it out And now I found out I don't ever want to be Pulling ever on your strings I can never fall asleep With the shoes still on my feet Eyes are all aglow The serpent sleeps below But it frowns on us And it dawns on us Slumbering silhouettes Keeping their regrets Tightly wrapped So mind the gap I don't ever want to see What was never meant for me I've been rolling up my sleeves Trying to catch the falling leaves I think I'll stick around Keep this weary carcass upright For now See all them sinking down Cannot save them all, but you can still hold out your hands For now Spinning like a carousel They can't shut you in or shut you out, you're alright For now Hope is all I have to keep Feel my head ache and my hands shake, but my pulse grows louder For now

Spider on the Wall 05:13
lyrics

Please accept my apology Elegance is not for me Still I'm searching Always searching Like a frightened animal Watching like a sentinel Eyes are open To the broken Falling faster Method actor Pure devotion Endless ocean Like a fortress Eyes so torturous Pull me under Rolling thunder There's a spider on my wall Got this pain that starts so small Sticks to me and eats me whole Wash me clean and shelf my skull Please refrain from sympathy Providence is not for me Choking, gasping Fingers grasping Eyes are darting all around Friends departed underground Aristocracy Mediocrity Climbing higher Blazing fire Pure emotion Big explosion Moral fiber Sharp incisors Always gnashing Systems crashing I'm the spider on your wall Got this pain inside us all Hold me close and keep me whole Wash me clean and save my soul --------------------------------------------------- I clamber to the riverside I'm all but empty and dead inside I hear them clearly The river's cries They're speaking to me For all my lies Hear the voices Intertwined The truth, it hits me I start to cry Om So, so long I'll go searching for your light So, so long I'll go bravely through the night

By the River 02:33
lyrics
buy track
Found myself out by the river Helping travelers safely cross Now I listen for the answers Beckoned forth by the river's call Now I know what you are thinking That this is all another ruse I understand your reasoning The river courses its way through you Don't be a stranger Fellow wayward soul I'll be here listening Dragged away by the river's pull

about

An existential freakout set to fuzzy guitars and dreamy melodies, Exodus is a deeply personal journey of self-discovery, a patchwork of stitched together fever dreams and musings. These songs were written and recorded in early 2019.
