arboretum 01:26
I could get used to this, you said to me Late one afternoon in early springtime We took the long way home; through the arboretum To tell all the trees our problems, as though they were listening But who's to say they're not We throw stones into the river to fill the void Until the authorities tell us, "this kind of behaviours not permitted" And I know this kind of silence would send your skin crawling If I were someone else
2.
There were times when this space was filled with more than silence When every word that we whispered could vibrate the walls Now I'm alone in this centre-ville apartment And it's been several days since I took your calls Now, you should know this isn't nothing personal You see, I haven't left my bed in days The moon waxes and wanes just like she's supposed to And I watch, paralyzed in this liminal state But I don't miss you anymore Oh, and I'm feelin' fine And as it turns out You're the last thing on my mind These days Sometimes I wish I could forget all these moments Just wrap them up and ship them someplace warm Or throw them into the ocean in a bottle So one day they'll wash up on a distant shore But I don't miss you anymore Oh, and I'm feelin' fine And as it turns out You're the last thing on my mind These days Cause when I'm feeling down and out And my hearts all full of doubt You bring me back Oh, you bring me back to the ground When my heads all stuck in the clouds Darlin' you lift me up Oh, you lift me up And you hold me there until I'm proud Darlin', bless you're little heart

baseline 02:34
You're like a moonbeam The way you light up the night sky And even when I close my eyes I can see you Oh, and it's easy For them to look at us and say That this is probably just a phase Cause they don't want to feel it And oh, wouldn't they be lucky To get a piece of what we got A piece of what we got And I know in the way you hold my gaze That you don't look at him that way You don't look at him that way This feeling is foreign The space between us is electric dust What we're doing feels deeper than lust Oh, it's atmospheric She's like a sunbeam Eclipsing me with every word that she says We always knew we'd be more than friends Though they tried to break us And oh, this transfixion seems to know no bounds I still think of you when he's around Do you think of me when he's around?

about

This basement demo was written on the threshold of transition. It is the product of a disorienting shift in time, space and identity.

tl;dr
short songs for a weird year
