Music
Below you can find the music I wrote and produced for my capstone project! You can also listen the EP directly on bandcamp here.
video screen
distant familiar stranger
unfurling feeling throughout your song
ask me about my nature
i’m pretty sure you’re getting it wrong
back then is mold and mildew
unyielding, bleeding, rare
but I know myself, i know you
i’d recognize that hair anywhere
the sunlight retreats on the lawn
but the ground still holds its warmth
bury me, bury me, bury me
as you’re speaking sweetly
bury me, bury me, bury me
turn around, can you feel my stare?
turn around, can i braid your hair?
i’m staring at myself through a video screen
and wondering what you’re thinking
february
spindly haunted trees around me
february feels to me just like a dream
unlasting dreary saturation
concrete, i can’t breathe
flowers blooming when they aren’t supposed to
i’m a ghost, just moving through
a fleeting form for you to use
let you treat me how i'd think you want to
feel the wind rustle the leaves
sit on the roof, watch the machinery
in your room, green smoke engulfs me
in your room, lissome limbs entangling
won’t you distract me? it could be so sweet
won’t you distract me? it could be so sweet
but I have my memory and i know what i mean
i have my memory and i know what i mean
i have my memory and i know what happened
i have my memory and i know what i mean
unbleeding
the mind’s not so detached from the body
the mind’s not so detached from the body
when I feel it, I feel everything
and when I feel it, how I bleed
and in me’s the resilience of the trees
a yearning at the core of me
when I feel it, it’s overwhelming
expelled through me, how i bleed
and in me are flowers tensing, a certain gasping, engulfing feeling
this nighttime distant breathing, it’s electricity, it’s machinery
i'll listen to the rain beat, tryna tell me something
i'll lose a part of me to try to keep me whole
hedera
in the aftermath of it all
i took up smoking once again
rounds of eleven cigarettes
inhale, exhale the memory
after you i got my callouses back
sylvan dread, you the darkness
let this be ephemeral, let this be weightless
to become oblivion, feel the blood buzzing through me,
my heart pounding, saw the shapes, our odd geography
the voices howling, inhale, exhale the memory
soft and mean, strong and sweet
