It's been awhile since I listened to my music. I will listen to my music. I know my music.

Fourstars 04:11
Please... are you? are you? Just call me again. I want to go home. There are four stars. They wait for me up there. Did you call? Did you touch? Did you feel it? I want to go home. What's going on in your heart.

I want to be near you. Travel your skin. Learn the history of your body. The shape of your hands stir my chest. When I see you when I close my eyes, when I see you as the cities, when I see you as the soft grey ocean pressed under the sky. There you are again in the grey sky. We'll go walking through the dark skies. The grey moon will take us home. We will be home. Close your eyes. Follow my shadow. I see you as the cities, seeping with light. I see you as the ocean, soft grey skies.

Just see alarms and airplanes I see death all around. I see alarms and airplanes I see death all around.

Sliding Down 05:50
Someone's crying inside of my chest. Love her, love her. Over the gold light you'll go one day soon. I've watched it building on the black mountain. Light, I will go there still. I've seen it building full on the black hillsides, they're sliding down. I'm still here. I'm still scared. I can hear. I see so far away. I see the gold light. I see the black hills rising over. I see so far away. I will wait for my voice to call.

Stories 03:43
Your eyes only look in. There are stories written on your skin. If I didn't look down, would I see you there? What do you see when you close your eyes? Oh there's all the stories. All the stories. You don't have to hide. I know they're not true, all the stories. I see you there.

Tile Floor 05:12
Little girl don't go outside, all the voices are waiting. I saw the sky in my bedroom door. I saw the walls crumbling down down down on the tile floor. We will wait for all the doors to swing wide open. I saw the sky open in your eyes. I swung that door wide open. Lay me down with all my walls on that tile floor. All my walls. Little girl don't go outside, all the voices are waiting. Break them down all of my crumbling walls. I'll see the sky. All my walls I'll break down, so I'll see the sky.

about

undergrowth, formings, dissolving- what happens when everything stills? What are we left with? This is some of what I found for myself.

Thank you to Andy Maag for awesome collaboration on "Alarms and Airplanes", and for all the inspiration and stillness. Also thank you Ben Runnels, Japhy Riddle and so many other inspiring artists that I'm constantly and literally colliding with.
