Pale 03:35
I feel guilty For feeling old I never say that I Love you as much as I should But please baby know, Know that I do. Don't ever grow, Pale. Sweet winding trail. It's so good to know, That this road, Leads back to you. Waking at night To you over me, Lying slow and still, no need to say do or go. Were I to die there and then, no more need I know. Don't ever grow, Pale. Sweet winding trail. It's so good to know, That this road, Leads back to you.

Your Home Has seasons I can seize Green fades to red And Red freezes blue. Your Days Have shifted From mine I’m lagging behind Most nights I don’t sleep till you do. My Dark Is steeped In your light Beaming from your live city to this bed, silent and still. My Moves Are humbled by you Driving round will not get me Where I want, I don’t know what will. Hold it in. Keep me round. Our Time Killed Before up. We are love. We are over. I am love. You are lover.

Helpless 04:21
Rose in the chill, rain playing with your hair. Always one more hill, but now you’re gone, do you care? Nestled up in you, As I whisper a speech, It always felt like new, I was helpless, peach. Rose in the sun, you really loved the heat. Walking round for miles, sand in your beaten feet. Nestled up in you, by the island’s lonely beach. It’s been so hard getting through, ‘cos I’m helpless, peach. Nestled up in you, now you’re harder to reach. But still it feels like new, Still helpless, peach. Still helpless, peach. Nestled up in you, Doing without is hard to teach. You’ve got new friends, think I could be one too? ‘cos I’m helpless, peach.

Head & Heart 03:28
There’s just no way to say how much I love you You never made me cry And that’s just fine Only got my fear To put above you You know we all get scared from time to time. Love me with your head and heart Love me from the place it starts Love me from your head and heart Love me like a child. There’s just no way to play the things I’m feeling No way to tell you all the things you mean Everyday I only feel like stealing Away to where I know I can be clean. Love me with your head and heart Love me from the place it starts Love me from your head and heart Love me when I’m wild. Laying down the ways to say I need you Scared of looking tall and feeling small Running through the days I have beside you Scared of being wrong and that’s it all. Love me with your head and heart Love with your very self Love me with your head and heart Love me when I'm wild. There’s just no way to say how much I love you You never made me cry And that’s just fine Only got my fear To bare above you You know we all get scared from time to time. Love me with your head and heart Love me from the very start Love me from your head and heart Love me like a child.

about

- a set of recordings i've been working on since moving back home this october. i hope you like them.

- in the process of recording though it became p apparent to me how much of a song really comes together after you've written the bare bones. the end result is largely the parts that no one considers that take forever: choosing the right tempo, instrumentation, layering, harmonies, and all the other assorted additionals. you could really just sit and do that stuff endlessly. so for that reason i present these 4 recordings here as they are without perhaps fully realising how far i could've taken them and without promising that they'll stay the way they are if i decide i don't like em — hope thats cool.

- i also recorded a fifth song called 'morningside' but on saturday i realised it didn't really fit with the vibe of the other songs so i didn't include it. but if you like the others and want to hear this un-included one i'd be glad to send it along.

- kinda had the idea that this could serve as something of a business card for anyone out there who might wanna play in a band with me? to play these and other songs — please do get in touch if you're into that idea, could be fun...
