my life is torn apart this is my favorite part you got me in your car i think i'm gonna barf raining in soccer fields wondering just how you feel i see you in your shirt this is what it feels like to flirt you show me how you drink you like the way i talk i was here alone last night i was here alone last night

lipstick 03:59
so i'm back to the velvet underground back to the floor that i loved to a room with some lace and paper flowers back to the lipstick that i loved and it all comes down to you well you know that it does and lightning strikes maybe once, maybe twice oh and it lights up the night and you see your lipstick to the lipstick that remains faces freedom with a little fear i have no fear i have only love and if i was a child and the child was enough for me to love enough to love he is dancing away from me now he was just a witch and the memory is all that is left for you now you see your lipstick lightning strikes maybe once, maybe twice and it all comes down to you i still see your bright eyes

when you come my way i feel love when you come my way i feel anything when you come my way i better run away cause you don't matter anymore when you come my way i feel pain when you come my way i feel the pain you left me and that's okay when you come my way i better run away cause you don't matter anymore

said a prayer then i saw you there sadness in your drink, money in your hair everyone stopped, pulled out what they smoke coke in the back, jack in the coke asked you your name, you said i had no flair i gave you mine and you said you didn't care here's to you, here's to me i look in the mirror, i look at history red lips, kiss interceptor pinprick, coolness detector smooth moves, stillness perfector master reflector that night you lied now tell me why you held her hand with your man in the bathroom crying leaving me without a clue leaving me with him, leaving me, the bad news leaving me a mess, just a mess how you could let me go stress it's a blessing, that's what daddy says suicide's a privilege it's frivolous okay, i guess i'll just kiss with a lalalala red lips, kiss interceptor pinprick, coolness detector smooth moves, stillness perfector master reflector

about

These songs are from when I was living by myself in Baltimore around 2015-2017.

As a listener, I'd think the EP is built around the covers since they're by the same band off the same album, but in putting this together I just had an intuition that there was a kind of sonic aesthetic I hadn't worked with yet and that these five songs--including those covers--could express that aesthetic in different ways, almost like the five points of a hand-drawn star.

My friend Chris Kojzar created the artwork for the EP. Over the phone he said he wanted selfies and that he would make my face out of hand- and thumbprints. There's something serendipitous about his inclusion of the powerlines--I feel like they somehow reflect the buzzy aesthetic I was chasing.

Thanks for listening--I hope these songs do something for you.
