1.	Fluttering Inside 03:38	lyrics	buy track
Fluttering Inside Metal kids in Volkswagens Stopped on the side of the highway Amish boy in a wide brimmed hat Trying to catch snowflakes I took the medicine But it’s not coming on You’re spouting prophecies That always turn out wrong I’ve got this porcupine Sleeping in my lap We’ve got to leave this place fast Dead soldiers piled in heaps Fill empty swimming pools Stupid sideways haircuts And DIY tattoos Everything I’ve ever known Colored in this light You’re up on the rooftop Smoking your dad’s pipe I’ve got an elephant Balanced on my shoulder We never noticed where we were Throw all your clothes in this camouflage duffle bag Lately I’ve been scanning the classified ads I’ve got a line on a decent Ford Fairlane Maybe if I buy it and do some repairing You could drive away with me I’ve got a butterfly Fluttering inside Let it out before I die
2.	I Am No Albatross 02:29	lyrics	buy track
I Am No Albatross Wearing the clothes all out of style Taking on water for a while Watching the neighbors move away I am a soldier unafraid Counting the clouds up in the sky Feeling immune when I’m inside Shooting at cars out on the road I am a bomb that might explode I am a stupid man I am no Superman More like a broken ride I am a suicide Seeing the way it always comes Feeling the air invade my lungs Knowing the answer’s in between I am a lake of gasoline Trying to clean up all this mess Everything breaks when it gets stressed Tying a knot in this machine I am the rain that makes it clean I am a stupid man I am no Superman More like a broken ride I am a suicide I am like anyone Blistering in the sun I am no albatross I am a holocaust
3.	Crumbling House 03:51	lyrics	buy track
Crumbling House If I could only get my head on straight Instead of up my ass If I could only find some other way To burn it all up fast Radiation melts my skin Explanations running thin You took a chance this time and trusted me Sorry I’m so the same I tried to warn you but this old defeat Bubbles in my veins Hesitation wore you out Dirty basement crumbling house If these apologies are lost on you Falling on deaf ears If you are looking for a pathway through Someone way less weird Desperation unbecoming Your frustrations mean nothing Sitting on the dock beside this river Waiting for the sun Hear the wind wheezing like a whisper See what we’ll become Slow vibrations shaking me Hesitation Please believe
4.	Tsunami 03:30	lyrics	buy track
Tsunami Lately I’ve thinking my body is a weird place Looking in the mirror looking at my face There’s this saturation an over ripening A kind of relaxation that I find frightening Do you feel this disconnection Between the mind and body And in this separation A tidal wave a tsunami Sometimes when I’m walking I focus on my feet Everything I’m thinking is rendered obsolete Have you felt a pulling somewhere in your ribs A trying to escape since you were a kid Do you feel this disconnection Between the mind and body And in this separation A tidal wave a tsunami What happens when you die do you float away Will there be a blossoming a kid on Christmas day Can they see you hover through the universe Wondering what happens only make it worse It only makes worse it only makes worse

about

This is the April edition of a series of monthly eps for 2017 in which I have invited friends to take my songs and "produce" them. I recorded the songs to a click track and sent the producers the raw tracks along with chords and lyrics and gave them free range to do as they saw fit. It is as much about their vision for the song as mine in writing it. I've included stripped down demos to get a sense of the arc each song has taken.

All proceeds from this series will go to either Planned Parenthood, Southern Poverty Law Center or the SPCA. Just message me with your preference.
