Man I Am 04:06
Been searching for a bright light, The night stars, no they don't suffice. and if I might, Spill my guts, Like the truth, I'm a fake But you're torn. Am I fraud? Maybe so, But I'm real. Just a lie, little lie, how's it feel, To know where you stand. Am I wrong to not like the man I am? Fighting for your lifeless breath, No need to figure out what's next. You're far too gone. If I'm right, and you're right, then we're wrong. Make a deal, pay the price in the hands of another. Hope you feel safe with him. Am I wrong, to not like the man I am? I realize I keep doing it wrong. I've never really been that strong. I'm always going to expect the same. Meeting disappointment at the end of the day. Well, I can't live the life that I dreamed. Should not let myself think, that I can have everything my way. and I'll be harsh and as cruel as I can. Can't calm the shake in my hands. I don't deserve the ground on which you stand. I'm not wrong. To not like the man I am. No I'm not wrong. To not like the man I am.

Owned 02:44
I've been feeling displaced. Succumbed to this vainglorious stage. Been drained of all morality. There must be hope somewhere in me. mmmmmmm Black lung. This air's full of sin. Can't lave. What's inked in your skin. Staggering, Each blow that you take. I pray the lord My soul to take. mmmmmmm Stop me from breathing. Cause I'm making sickness Feel like the norm. Already exposed. Change how I'm feeling. Cause I'll never change, if I'm to do it alone. This world's got me owned.

I heard you started a fire. Just to burn me away. I heard you call me a liar. Truth, you always seemed to blame. Poisoning Kisses, kept your memories in my veins. and I thought all the wishes. Would bring on something great. It hurts the most, To know that we were nothing. Had it all in reach, Weren't even close to touching. I'm finding you in things around me. Now, I don't feel a thing at all. I didn't have to make a statement. You just faded from my heart. Poisoning kisses, Destroyed everything you were. You'd think I would've noticed, The moment our beating heart had stopped. It hurts the most, To know that we were nothing. To know that I feel nothing for you. Had it all in reach, Weren't even close to touching. Not even close to touching.

Demons 03:24
My demons still have, A hold on my tongue. The song they sing, When the preacher is done. Vows sorrow-less cheer, and joy neverending. And now it's clear they've won. Couldn't I take it back. Couldn't I change. Who are you to cast me out. Who am I Who am I Who am I Ain't I worth saving? Who am I The rapture has come. All is forgotten. The ones I love, Don't seem to be here. They've vanished, Dispersed. My hands have been cursed. And all that I touch disappears. Couldn't I take it back. Couldn't I change. Who are you to cast me out. Who am I Who am I Who am I Ain't I worth saving? Who am I

Thread 04:32
I wish I could undo, This past that I've paved. Remove the things, That pile themselves up and stand in your way. I see you and I know where your coming form. I'm adaptively made up of things, this world is not capable of. You're not alone. I've been there too. Gravity's strong. I'm grounded with you. When you want to, Make yourself disappear. Let's pack up, you know what, Let's go on, and get out of here. You don't like distance, And I don't want space. It makes perfect sense, When our books are turned, to the same page. You're not alone. I've been there too. Gravity's strong. I'm grounded with you. Gather the slack in that thread. Stitch me up. No more pulling, There's no need to test, The strength of our love. When your over whelmed, Don't turn away. I know everyone else has left, I won't leave, I'm gonna stay. You're not alone. I've been there too. Gravity's strong. I'm grounded with you. You're not alone. I've been there too. Gravity's strong. I'm grounded with you.

about

I have had a few of the songs on this EP for a while. They have sat unfinished, seeming to not ever go anywhere. Finally, after a few years in Oklahoma, living in LA for two years and taking off on a moments notice to go to Austin where my car broke down and I was pretty much stranded in a strangers lake house for a few months, I was able to finish writing them and have decided to start working them into society.

This is an Acoustic EP of which I will eventually create a full length LP and release at a later date.
I had a deadline, one month. This is what came of it. Hope everyone enjoys.
