i'm still a a solipsistic version of the me i want to be i still lead a directionless existence even after all these years what good is waking up when you can't feel a thing i don't want to see tomorrow if it's as dead as today i'm so tired i'll watch me rest beneath an empty sea

i don't want to fall asleep i don't want to stay awake i don't see a future here i don't feel like i'm alive i reached to the night can't believe my eyes i felt into the night i can't believe my eyes i reached into the night can't believe my eyes i felt into the night i can't believe my eyes how can i continue on when this world has nothing left i reached to the night can't believe my eyes i felt into the night i can't believe my eyes i reached into the night can't believe my eyes i felt into the night i can't believe my eyes

you're so afraid if you assert yourself it will leave you open to ridicule from all the people who can only remember the worst parts of you spring left without a whisper summer's here with an empty heart the outside world seems so far but there's no such thing as forever you'll reach again and feel the breeze when will you accept you also deserve to feel hope just like anyone else you'll feel your proud breath echo into the distance for no one else but you spring left without a whisper summer's here with an empty heart the outside world seems so far but there's no such thing as forever you'll reach again and feel the breeze

about

this is an EP created in COVID times, made during the months of March 2020 thru early October 2020. Aside from these four songs, I didn't do as much creative work last year as I had been accustomed to in 2019 (might have something to do with debilitating loneliness and the resulting mental illness flare-ups, melded together with other personal and global events & circumstances).

A part of me thought I should wait to place these songs within a larger album, but I think it makes more sense to let this serve as a short document about a very internally harrowing, yet externally 'empty' – in the sense that there was a total absence of companionship and socialization, and the pulsating movement of usual, every-day life – period for me, and obviously for countless others. With the near-anniversary of the start of the pandemic, it feels like the right time to release this.

This EP is rough and unpolished but, I think that's an apt and authentic aural depiction of my inner landscape during the time these songs were constructed. It's yours for free if you so choose, and I hope you find some value in it. <3
