A new beginning Means another end Nothing lasts forever Why couldn’t I see it? Falling apart Now it seems so obvious but Is it all my fault? The way that this played out? You said that you would always be here It’s funny that you’re not You all abandoned me When I was of no use I’m sorry I’m the not same Don’t you know that people change? A new beginning Means another end Nothing lasts forever Why couldn’t I see it? Falling apart Now it seems so obvious but Is it all my fault? The way that this played out? You said that you would always be here It’s funny that you’re not You all abandoned me When I was of no use I’m sorry I’m the not same Don’t you know that people change?

After all I’ve done for you What do you have to say? I try my best and yet I have to push you away You didn’t even care Only thought about yourself Why give you the time of day? There’s a reason why I left Although I miss you I’m better off Even If I had stayed You wouldn’t give a fuck We tried to help you But you couldn’t change You have to help yourself There’s no one else who will And even if there was Why would they stay? If you can’t change you selfish ways? I love you but I have to let you go You have to help yourself There’s no one else who will And even if there was Why would they stay? If you can’t change you selfish ways? After all I’ve done for you What do you have to say? I tried my best and yet I had to push you away

Static 04:32
It’s days like that I feel, Truly alone. The yearly occurrence, Of loss of control. I sit here, Alone in the dirt. Past mistakes and grudges, The people I’ve hurt You helped me move past it, Helped me out of this. Constant state of worry, Away from the abyss. You are all I need, There’s static in the air we breathe. The moon shines high and bright, I know we’ll be alright. These days I feel better, A feeling of hope. No longer scared of silence, Back in control. I sit here with you, Both in the dirt. Talking bout our memories The one’s that still hurt We help each other through it, Help each other out of this, Constant state of worry, Away from the abyss You are all I need, There’s static in the air we breathe. The moon shines high and bright, I know we’ll be alright. We help each other through it, Help each other out of this, Constant state of worry, Away from the abyss You are all I need, There’s static in the air we breathe. The moon shines high and bright, I know we’ll be alright.

When they say “you should move on” they mean forgetting But I don’t want to forget Every memory I have of you is good Even the ones that hurt Because even though you were gone And even though I was hurting I had you And I knew you Falling, and I'm falling, I hear you calling, Drawing a line to where you stand. But now I'm falling, yeah I'm falling, Without a warning, Crossing the line to where left me, Now it doesn't mean a thing. Grief isn’t about forgetting It’s about preserving your memory That memory I have of you And carrying it on For those who never got the chance to meet you We may have been young when you died But the joy you brought into the world is immeasurable Even if you only brought joy to me It still is immeasurable Because even though you were gone And even though I was hurting I had you in my life I had you And I knew you Falling, and I'm falling, I hear you calling, Drawing a line to where you stand. But now I'm falling, yeah I'm falling, Without a warning, Crossing the line to where left me, Now it doesn't mean a thing. There’s so many people I wish you could meet And so many experiences I wish we could share But even though we can’t I know I’ll always have you here I don’t know where you are now Be it in heaven or somewhere else But I know I carry on your spirit In everything I do Because even though you were gone And even though I was hurting I had you in my life I had you And I knew you If I could see you All i’d want to say is I love you Falling, and I'm falling, I hear you calling, Drawing a line to where you stand. But now I'm falling, yeah I'm falling, Without a warning, Crossing the line to where left me, Now it doesn't mean a thing.

My life is falling apart, Nothing seems to be working. I wish I had the heart to say, I miss you. You couldn’t bear to stay, So you gave your life away. I wish I could hear you say, I love you. It’s been two whole days since you’ve passed, I don’t know how I’ve lasted. Nothing can change the past, But my memories will fade over time. It’s been two whole weeks since you’ve passed, I don’t know how I’ve lasted. Nothing can change the passed, But my memories will fade over time. There’s a million things I would tell you, If I had the chance. If I could send letters to heaven, Would you read them and send me one back. Let me know how you are doing, Are you still proud of me? I sometimes really doubt that, I guess I’ll just have to wait and see. It’s been two whole months since you’ve passed, I don’t know how I’ve lasted. Nothing can change the passed, But my memories will fade over time. It’s been two whole years since you’ve passed, I don’t know how I’ve lasted. Nothing can change the passed, But my memories will fade over time. I love you I love you I love you I

That look in your eyes As you try not to cry I’ll be there by your side In the pouring rain What do you see in me? A fading memory? Of the good times come and gone There’s not much left for us here There’s nothing you should fear I’m sorry it turned out This way Only time will tell… I’m sorry For how this all turned out I won’t leave you I won’t leave I won’t… When all is said and done I hope I mean something to someone Will I be remembered? When I fade away?

Do I have to be better? Nothing has changed. So much time has passed, Still this feeling remains. It’s that time of year, When I feel like all hope, Escapes through my hands, Leaving nowhere to go. Why can’t I see? The people that care for me. I’m not as alone, As I might have known. Do I have to be better? Nothing has changed. So much time has passed, Still this feeling remains. It’s so hard to see, Through the guilt and the grief. Even when there is hope, Staring right back at me. As the day reaches near, And I feel like all hope, Is slipping away, I feel so alone. Why can’t I see? The life here for me. There’s hope for me here, I know I’m not alone. I look into my past, It all happened so fast. Has everything changed, I just can’t explain. What lead me here? What is it I fear? That feeling comes back around Do I have to be better? Nothing has changed. So much time has passed, Still this feeling remains. It’s so hard to see, Through the guilt and the grief. Even when there is hope, Staring right back at me. It’s time of year, When I feel like all hope, Escapes from through my hands, Leaving nowhere to go. Why can’t I see? The people that care for me. I’m not as alone, As I might have known.

Countdown 05:13
It’s time for me to say goodbye, To everything I’ve left behind. And as for all that’s said and done, I know I mean something to someone. And now I have you. I can feel you now, Will you show me how? There’s pain we feel we need to hide, It slowly eats us up inside. And as for all that’s said and done, You know you mean something to someone. Can you feel me now? I will show you how. We are not alone. There’s a place for us here, you know? We are not alone, The stars look down on us, aglow.

about

I started work on this album around May of 2021. It's been a long and difficult journey overcoming my own self-doubt to get this thing made. It's the first time I've felt truly comfortable being myself in a musical context, as you'll see through the many different genres I try to explore in this project.

This album is a representation of myself through this past year. It highlights the highs and the lows of my life and the way I felt about it all. My hope is for anyone who listens to connect to at least one track or one idea I had while making this

I'd like to thank Jessica, my amazing girlfriend for helping me gain the confidence to actually go through with making this, my family for their constant support of what I try to accomplish and anyone who gives this thing a listen. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
