As a kid you where a ghost for halloween, and now you're traced in chalk at the scene. Why you gone do this and make me sick, result of a habit you could never kick. Would've helped but you left us unaware, regret never saying how much I really care. Didn't see it coming you left us in shards, didn't see it coming even with my tarot cards. But it's you're hand, on my planchette, I use everday. Just spell out, those words, that you could never say. I still feel the emotions that stained these halls, swear I've heard your voice down these halls. Part of you's gone but it still feels erie, due in part by the stone tape theory. I used to feel so anxious and tremble in fear, I've since felt your touch and it was sincere. This buildings haunted by those who go boo, I suppose the afterlife was too cool for you. But it's you're hand, on my plancette, I use everyday. Just spell out, those words, that you could never say. Just spell out, those words...those words...G O O D B Y E

Hey Sarah I know its not your fault, so let's forget about yesterday, check out what I bought. 2 sheets of acid and the nights of our lives, we can be criminals and outrun Barney Fife. She said hellyeah, you know that's the truth, so we sat alone for hours, spinning sonic youth. And the Hours flew by and I hit the wall, we parted our ways and I said that I'd call. Then to my car and I'm swerving about, blasting Bad Brains as loud as I can shout. But the trip was too much and I lost all control, not a moment to spare to pray for my soul. By now I've not called you and you think I've lied, but darling I've transcended like Jim Morrison, to the other side.

Breaking even, collective matter. Flutter down, silent shatter. Transparent plumage gave away your intentions, winged eyeliner and several honorable mentions. Never wanted you to feel latched in a cage, out the window like a ghost fleeing sage. Hope you'll return with the changing weather, soared right through me like glass feathers. Constantly repressed like a Kit-Kat bar, everytime I catch a glimpse of your car. Haunting hell of seeing me through your eyes, knowing all the reasons you choose to fly. Constantly pretend I'm not seeing things, like gremlins ripping apart airplane wings. Crash and burn like the phoenix you where, someday I hope they develope a cure. Wish like hell you could've followed your dreams, guess I'll keep hiding behind my dumb memes. Refusing to burn out just like the rest, I'll keep flapping till I'm outa this nest. 11 weeks since you replied back, all tied up and stuck in your track. Left us without saying a word, farewell you lovely mocking bird.

Beat me down my friend, beat me down, again and again. I'm impure and I'm unclean, n' I live well beneath my means. As home in my mirror shrinks, I'll fall back on my own instincts. Got me a ticket to an airplane, leaving real soon so forget my name. Leaving real soon so take my bike, come to terms we're too much alike. So lift me on up over the 50 states, lift me on up to the pearly gates. And I will follow my nose, and even if it bleeds, don't follow where it leads, cause this is the road I chose. Who cares if I end up broke, who cares, I'll have a toke. When will I scream in pain, when will I taste the Florida rain. Dear father can you get me by, oh mother, I just wanna die. Help me, I must unwind, help me, reclaim my mind. If you go back to NorCak, promise you'll write me back. Even though we're dead inside, GODDAMN, you'll make a lovely bride. Consider it a lack of sacrifice, you left me to my own device. Consider it a lack of sacrifice... And I will follow my nose, and even if it bleeds, don't follow where it leads, cause this is the road I chose.

about

I wrote this album mostly from the perspective of ghosts and also about them. Recorded in, Virginia Beach, VA, over the span of 4 days while house sitting for my aunt. I used the on board stereo mic on my Zoom H4N Pro field recorder. Sorry for the low volume, this was no budget.

(This was self released on YouTube, a year ago. Sorry I'm late.)
