I'm The Asshole 03:39
lyrics

For all the time that we spend Feeling lost on the outside, looking in Are the moments that we've been missing out On the days in our lives that we lived Fuck your car, fuck your clothes, fuck your kids And all your problems you bring on yourself From out here, seems a petty waste of time And I simply could not give a shit Well I used to work hard for my scene Now too busy 'cause I'm working hard for me And I'm lost in the current of the flow Yeah I'm watching the lines in the road Just watching the lines in the road Yeah I'm watching the lines in the road Mostly, I enjoy it alone Yeah I'm watching the lines in the road

Sheri's Song 03:01

Mama Sheri says What Mama Sheri says... Mama Sheri says What Mama Sheri says... Where's your coat? You'll catch a cold Look here child, you're getting old Your throat sounds scratched, so have some tea We'll share a cup of misery Mama Sheri says What Mama Sherri says... And Mama Sheri gives What Mam Sheri gives... Shares her heart with a glass of vine Some flowers in a vase that's fine If fabric scraps is what you need She'll share her bounty happily Mama Sheri says What Mama Sheri says And Mam Sheri lives Where Mama Sheri lives... A cul-de-sac at the end of town With flowers blooming from the ground Her kitties greet you at the door While her eyes, they beg for something more Mama Sheri says What Mama Sheri says... Mama Sheri says What Mama Sheri says... Inside her anxious thoughts and worried mind Lives the biggest heart you'll ever find Every now and again she'll come 'round When she feels the need to feel the sound... Mama Sheri says What Mama Sheri says.

Dream Killer 02:26

I can't wait To piss on your grave There's so much pain That your life has caused me And I can't wait to piss on your grave Then we'll see Who will have the last laugh I still think That I should've killed you At 10 years old With a knife in my hands And I still think You're a plague upon the surface You don't deserve to breath your next breath Just your name Fills my heart with rage My family Ripped apart by your tongue Just your name Sends a shivering spine Carve out your throat Where the lies spew from

Breaking The Child 04:14
lyrics

When you touch my skin You also tear my soul But let's play pretend Follow me down this rabbit hole I feel my youth slipping amidst the decay Locked in the closet far away Trapped in the trunk in the room Shhh... Fetal positions, they possess A lack of love, care, and safety Looking for some place small inside Hiding..... Follow me down, don't make a... Follow me down, just fell the... Follow me down, I'll make you... Follow me down... Don't, don't touch me Don't see me Don't tell me Don't make me Don't, don't touch me Don't see me You are not me Only I, I own me

Pep Talk 03:41

I pace my house I pace this room I fear these things That are blind to you I've been sick 3 times In the last two months I feel cold inside I hate to feel so numb Sick in my head It's the same old shit I crave relief From a single click But I won't give up No, not tonight And if I drown in tears Death can wait Death can wait Death can wait I've been sleeping in And I've been working hard I yell at my dog For the things I can't afford I'm a grand behind But I keep looking up Because this too shall pass I can beat this shit Death can wait Death can wait

Drifter 03:39
lyrics

Everything is everything Oh yes everything is everything I've been drifting in the sea Soaking up the sun And pissing on a tree That's right, I'm pissing on a tree Well life it comes to me in waves Yes in life I ride along the waves I keep in mind the scattered bones Fluid pavement eats away my feet But I won't die in the sea No, I won't die in the sea Trouble was a long time friend Sometimes trouble comes around again With all the skills that I possess I still have weakness I confess And I kill a part of me With ease, I kill a part of me I've lived a life seduced by pain While I myself, have turned to do the same But I live to love another day I let chips fall where ever they lay Encumbered my thorns Sometimes encumbered by my thorns I was born adorning chains Now in the dust I leave them to remain The blood stain lingers in my head Back when demons danced around my bed But now I live a woman free That's who I was meant to be Everything is everything Yes everything is everything I've been out there with the trees Always doing as I please And I won't give in today No I won't give in today

After Trauma 03:19
lyrics
buy track
Will you give up the disguise? You can't hide those vacant eyes The only cure for the rape of soul Is to stand and take control 'Cause there's life after trauma Yes there's life after trauma And you'll grow As you go Facing the flow In the flood of tears you cry In the wounds and heavy sighs There's a child that wants to heal Feel the warmth of something real To breath the life after trauma Breath in a life after trauma 'Cause you know There's no home Where it's cold I choose to be informed Though the veil is hard to move Pain and joy have their equal sides I have nothing left to hide I have nothing left to hide In a life built after trauma I'm living a life after trauma And I know I have a home And I know There is hope No matter how low No matter how low No matter how low

Sidewalk 02:40

Sitting on the beach down in Santa Cruz Aaron's down the block, I'm with Tikachu And my shoelaces, they are untied My shoelaces, they are untied The vans parked down by the side of the road We got 7 minutes left, and then it's time to go And my shoelaces, they are untied My shoelaces, they are untied Life is just a moment that has slipped away I'm staring at the bricks and enjoying my day There's free internet, but I ain't got a room And my shoe laces, they are untied Sitting on the beach down in Santa Cruz So many rules to break, don't know what to choose Don't skate down the walk holdin' rollerskates Best not to lock up your bike in the wrong place

about

I started this recording sometime in late 2013. It had been finished for almost a year before I released it with no announcement. A lot was going on and I had to take some time to gather my bearings. I am so grateful for my friends who helped me put this together.

Skulls & Butterflies

It is the breaking of my heart and the triumphs you obtain when you smash through walls. Life is pain, it's suffering, but it's also beautiful because of it. Lyrics just as raw and honest as I am, maybe even more so. An intense, emotional ride. My heart on my sleeve, the baring of my soul. ... more
