i'll sleep on the sandy floor tonight
if i'm on my own
it's not all that easy being me
with the sand in my bones
i'm not going home
the mouth of my cave is yawning
it's whispering lonely words
i can't seem to shake them from my head
like a skeleton living in darkness
i'll never feel warm again in my life
i'll sleep on the sandy floor tonight
if i'm on my own
it's not all that easy being me
with the sand in my bones
high tide washes over me
and it fills in the holes
i'm not going home

sleepwalking nightly
she's got a hold on me
or maybe me in a past life
i'm only human
trying to make some sense of this
we're all tangled together
i'll be just fine
inside my mind
freefall in slow motion
through all the memories
with no one to talk to
i wander earth alone
scrape by to get by
didn't mean to drag you
in this messed up fantasy
i hope you get what you wanted
i'll be just fine
inside my mind
freefall in slow motion
through all the memories
let's face it, i'm gone
you've got a future of your own
someday, maybe
i'll come back home again

sun spilling in through the open window
splitting light through the cracks in the blinds
in spaces between
we're peeking eyes through the carpet
as we lay on the floor
i keep having dreams where i'm falling
but lately i haven't been waking up
blurry eyes, i spoke with a broken smile
look inside of me, tell me this isn't real
with starry eyes, you looked in mine
and said "let's go to the ocean"
the winter is over
i followed behind you
into the water
hear the whispers of waves
they're telling me i don't belong here
hand reaching for hand
reaching for the ocean floor
i'm closing my eyes
i can't take it anymore
sun spilling in through the open window
splitting light through the cracks in the blinds
in spaces between
we're peeking eyes through the carpet
as we lay on the floor
i keep having dreams where i'm falling
and i'm afraid this is one of them

it's hard enough letting go
of the only love i've known
kind of makes me wanna die
knowing it was all a lie
don't need you in my head
don't need you in my head
don't need you in my head
much rather be dead
i've been trying all this time
to erase you from my mind
it's not working out too well
i hope you know it gives me hell
don't need you in my head
don't need you in my head
don't need you in my head
much rather be dead

this song reminds me of this one time I drank too much soju and started crying over jellyfish disappearing on a Magic Mic karaoke screensaver

This release is beautiful. a lot of this sounds like a nostalgic style of Chiptune that I personally enjoy And I’m happy there’s something like this that can produce something that really flows between contemplative music and just generally vibes to just vibe to. I love the transitions in every song, honestly the textures and soundscapes, everything feels lush and ripe. “this is what I think about when I talk about Chiptune”

Colossally good New Wave out of Portland, with the nerviness of Kleenex poured into hooky pop songs.
