Forget Me 02:39
lyrics

I guess I shouldn't be surprised You've got both my hands tied Whenever you're around me You're a sorcerer still Hard to heal when every word's a kill And each syllable resounding It's pretty telling When radio silence makes for the best weeks So maybe, oh baby, the best thing to say is to forget me Yeah maybe, oh baby, the best thing to say is to forget me I can't pretend Feels like playing chess to call you friend It should be fun, but it's exhausting I hope you know this hurts Whole point of this was so I wouldn't do all the work Not gonna let this cost me I'm down to try something But if it won't click when the lady sings, Then maybe, oh baby, the best thing to say is to forget me Yeah maybe, oh baby, the best thing to say is to forget me Oh because no matter how much I miss ya Oh baby boy, it hurts more when I'm with ya Can't open the lock if you don't have the key But maybe there's more in life to see... Just forget me. You're not mine I guess I shouldn't be surprised...

Crushed 02:34

I only have eyes for you Well, maybe that’s not true But I really like you And like 19 other dudes But it’s a feeling I chase To be wrapped in your embrace Or maybe anyone, in my case Or maybe I like being debased You take up a corner of my mind Next to the spots other guys occupy But maybe you could be the first to give it a try… So give me a sign! Tell me just how you feel Sugarcoat that desperate guys don’t have any sex appeal (Give me a sign!) Reciprocate my love I know we just met, but surely that’s not asking too much? No wait, hold up, know what? Just hush I’m already crushed I like the idea of this But, baby it’d be bliss If you could call it a near miss Pretend like I’m someone you wanted to kiss ‘Cause I like the rush Of knowing I’m almost enough That I’m someone who could be loved If I could ever learn to let up But that won’t be happening anytime soon I’m hooked on perfecting the art of the swoon Clinging to the concept that at some opportune time… You’ll give me a sign! Tell me just how you feel Sugarcoat that desperate guys don’t have any sex appeal (Give me a sign!) Reciprocate my love I know we just met, but surely that’s not asking too much? No wait, hold up, know what? I’m already crushed (I only have eyes for you)

Au Feu 03:22

La vie est si pleine des beaux rêves et bien le regret Ces nuits dans les rues de Paris, je ne veux pas oublier Encore et encore je déplore le souvenir de ton sourire Mais je garde les vestiges, pour le meilleur ou le pire Mais non, tout sera bon, il y aura le suivant Oui, l’eau présente dans des larmes est le même dans l’encre Donc, je n’arrêterai pas de chanter, c’est mon aveu Même si je me brûle les ailes, je survivrai, j’en mettrais ma main au feu Mes rêves sont si pleins de vie, ma vie qui je commence à regretter Mon amour endure, je ne fais pas les choses à moitié La douleur, elle arrive en vagues, comme les fleuves autour Je suis bien durant la journée, mais la nuit, je ne suis pas sûr Mais non, tout sera bon, il y aura le suivant Oui, l’eau présente dans des larmes est le même dans l’encre Donc, je n’arrêterai pas de chanter, c’est mon aveu Même si je me brûle les ailes, je survivrai, j’en mettrais ma main au feu La vie est si pleine des beaux rêves et bien le regret Ces nuits dans les rues de Paris, je ne veux pas oublier Je n’sais pas pourquoi je rêve de mon ancien vœu Je vis, et bien vive la vie, c’est tout duquel j’ai besoin J’en mettrais ma main au feu

Simulacrum 03:19
lyrics
buy track
I never knew what to do When I was around you, It's like I could see you break I never knew what to say Neither did you That's why you walked away It just won't leave my brain Oh, was all of this fake? Is it a question of if I'm okay If you never had a heart to break? I suppose our lips touched I suppose we smiled like it was enough But everything I said was "too much" What the fuck? I suppose we had some fun But just playing the game doesn't mean you've won I suppose, I suppose, when push comes to shove We went through the motions of love But something never did quite add up We went through the motions of love But we were at best a test run You were my simulacrum Is this how it all feels? Almost like nothing's real? Almost like it's a dream That you dared to believe? Almost like you were close But he went comatose So you're learning to cope Saving shatters of hope? I suppose our lips touched I suppose we smiled like it was enough But everything I said was "too much" What the fuck? I suppose we had some fun But just playing the game doesn't mean you've won I suppose, I suppose, when push comes to shove We went through the motions of love But something never did quite add up We went through the motions of love But we were at best a test run You were my simulacrum

Forbidden 04:09

Hello We're just friends, I know I wanna take this down so many roads But I won't let it show I could lie and say that I don't think about you all the time But really you're all that's ever on my mind I give you all my love, and I can't quit it Just for a hint of something I can blow out of proportion So until if becomes when This love will remain Forbidden Just walk on by, let me savor that your presence is nigh Something about your charm captivates me every time 'Cause I could lie and say I don't think about you all the time (Mendacious words spilling from this sinful mouth of mine) But really you're all that's ever on my mind (Please darling, give me a sign!) I give you all my love, and I can't quit it Just for a hint of something I can blow out of proportion So until if becomes when This love will remain I want you to want me Even if just for a day I'd give you anything Just to feel my body in your embrace How can something that's so much fun Cause so much grief and pain? Ever so close And yet so far away (Just too far away) I give you all my love, and I can't quit it... I give you all my love, and I can't quit it (It's unrequited but I can't fight it) Just for a hint of something I can blow out of proportion (Fabricating notions and emotions) So until if becomes when (I swear that it will happen) This love will remain Forbidden (Please please please give this a chance chance chance You know that I want to be more more more than friends) Hello We're just friends, I know.

Warm (Demo) 02:16

I guess this always was the plan You and I were mismatched We were a scenic but ultimately useless path I guess there was nothing left to do I was losing you But I didn't want to admit the truth It's unfair, baby To keep me hanging on the line It's unfair, baby Yeah, you're in the wrong this time 'Cause I just want a text goodnight Once in a while When I say I love you and you're mine He gives me a smile He doesn't even have to say back After you, I could live with that, oh Where sweet nothings are nothing, and not performed I just need something warm Oh, I said, "Stay with me" "Remain here with me" I watched and prayed "Stay with me" "Remain here with me" I watched and prayed But it's not you I'm praying for anymore No, it's not you I'm praying for anymore I need something warm...

about

My first boyfriend ever broke up with me as I was finishing "Transitions." Having such an emotional first gave me a lot of inspiration, but I knew I didn't want to hang onto those songs for too long - so I decided to make this transition out of stability in my life its own addendum to "Transitions." I hope the music is as fun and healing for you to listen to as it was for me to make.
