Watch Me Do It All

Liner Notes
Lyrics
Call me from a spoofed number It’s a crisis Someone’s in the hospital Or joined with ISIS So I’m half awake now Back to typing Now we're doing this again Yeah I’ll try it
Waking wide-eyed dreams
Watch me do it all Watch me throw it in I need to play a show real late But I’m awake at 6 am I’ll read you my diary We’ll reach for the mundane I gave up what I thought I’d lose When there’s nothing to be gained
Sitting on a frigid throne Record the memo all alone Waiting for the sun to rise Wait for sleep to leave my eyes Here’s another day in life Here’s a moment that I try Just to write down what it’s like To wring a measure out of life
Just to sing it all Just to let breath leave my lungs And press into a metal coil Suspended in a microphone Don’t know if I’d play it back It only meets a dial tone All our wires have been crossed All our words have been disowned
I’d give you a call I’d give you a ring But I can’t reach outside myself I’m done hibernating
screaming on the street everything is on repeat Sleep is still not in the cards My dreams just can’t compete

Great clarity in the songwriting here, I can pick up all the pieces and directions you're going. Cool indie vibes here!
Unsettling pulsing synth in the background. The song kind of jumps genres a bit, which was cool to hear. Not sure I've ever thought to do that.
I love this! There are a lot of different vibes here that morph into each other really interestingly... sick!
Wonderful energy in the music and beautifully disturbing lyrics. I've given it 3 listens already and haven't had enough 😃
