I really don’t feel well and I really can’t tell If its cause I’m sick or cause I haven’t heard from you in a bit I’ve been staying up late and I know you can relate As you smile at your phone At something stupid I said again, no You can’t ignore your beating heart I know it’s fighting with your head in the dark again You can’t ignore me anymore Take a lap around my room what are you fighting for I don’t know why I put my phone back in my pocket When I know you’ll answer before it gets there The amount of screenshots I have is unhealthy Just about as unhealthy as the number of minutes I spend with you Contemplating the strength of the things that I am feeling towards you, towards you You can’t ignore your beating heart I know it’s fighting with your head in the dark again You can’t ignore me anymore Take a lap around my room what are you fighting for Your balance is impeccable as you walk the line between Where we are and what it is that I’m hoping for Your balance is impeccable; it is impeccable Next week I think a gentle breeze Will push you over onto me At least that’s where I think you wanna be

Undertones 02:55
I’m always drunk on something Whether its your cryptic words That I twist and turn Or my seventh beer I’ll never learn In my head I’m picking apart The meaning of everything that you’re saying Til I pass out at three in the morning In front of the dim light my phone is burning Don’t worry about me I’ll be okay probably I know you worry about me I hope you see what I see Bottle up your thoughts and feelings It’s not worth your time or effort We’re sick of seeing you always getting hurt But what if she doesn’t know She’s gotta figure it out on her own So hopefully it’s clear in my undertones Don’t worry about me I’ll be okay probably I know you worry about me I hope you see what I see
3.
I'm Okay 04:01
I’m stuck inside my heavy round head Imagining everything that can go wrong It doesn’t make any sense to me Or to anyone else that I see Get out of your head It’s really okay Despite what you said It’s just another day Hold her hand, she’ll keep you safe You’ve found the girl, she’s here to stay Just relax and breathe it will be alright You’re happy and healthy, you’re not gonna die today Get out of your head It’s really okay Despite what you said It’s just another day Everyday brings new fears With difficult solutions I have to make clear To continue on building towards a somewhat perfect life Pursuing my love and happiness til I reach the light
4.
Cell Phone 01:48
The thoughts you have when you’re about to cry Are the truest thoughts you’ll have in your life They’re never seen or heard Cause you can’t muster the strength to say anything other than yes or no And by the time you go to write them down They are long forgotten A quivering lip is hard to fight You lose control your feelings they take flight You reach out for someone to hold But you’re yelling, you’re yelling at your phone And it’s far too small
5.
Where do we go when we die? I wasn’t sure but I had a feeling why You were afraid in your head last night Think things through one day you’ll get it right I don’t wanna leave without you I can’t change the course of time I don’t wanna live without you I can’t pretend that this is alright
6.
Intuition 04:39
Every morning when I set foot out the door I leave footprints in the snow, size thirteen and a half to be exact But why can’t that be all I step on today Rather than someone’s heart causing pain that won’t go away But that’s not how life works, we’re all reckless people With our poison tipped arrows firing left and right no sign of warning We don’t care about anyone, no wait we care too much We try to protect one another but just end up leaving scars I need to find some intuition To deal with this goddamn situation I fall too hard like a tree in the forest No one’s there to hear me, no cries of protest I try to turn it off, try to power down But I’m not a robot I can’t find the switch My feelings they can’t help it, no they come and they go I’m head over heels by day three, a gentle giant amongst mortals no one's there beside me I need to find some intuition To deal with this goddamn situation I fall too hard like a tree in the forest No one’s there to hear me, no cries of protest Sitting on the back porch staring at the tree line Watching those fireflies pass by my eyes The sun’s going down and its time for bed But I can’t sleep, I don’t wanna sleep For the past three nights I wore my socks to bed But my feet were too cold from the thoughts in my head Throwing rocks at the walls of this cold basement I just can’t sleep on an air mattress again I thought this whiskey would keep me warm But the sun came up and I still felt bored Eating peanut shells til I felt sick I just can’t sleep on an air mattress again I don’t wanna sleep

Admission 03:57
What are you doing here It’s really too late for this Is there someone you can call To pick you up I don’t know about you But my mom says I can call anytime I need Day or night, rain or shine Anytime I need It’s time for you To get to bed Get some help To rest your head I’m not enough To get you through We need someone To help you Don’t be ashamed You’re not to blame Life’s a sick and twisted game Please don’t cry I’m not trying to criticize The first step’s admitting Then we get to the quitting One step at a time That’s the first smile I’ve seen from you in awhile Now it matches mine It’s time for you To get to bed Get some help To rest your head I’m not enough To get you through We need someone To help you I’ll see you through Til the end Til both of us Can rest our heads Without a worry Or sense of doubt That tomorrow we’ll be Proud

She said, “I like feeling small I’m average height But wrapped up with you I feel so small” I think I’m falling in love with you But it’s to early to say I know I’ve fallen in love with you Why can’t I fuckin’ say You’re all I want and more I just wanna shut that door Roll around, roll around On the floor with you You’re all I want and more This is what I was fighting for I haven’t slept all night And neither have you We were in the cramped back seat With your brother in the pouring rain Hungry cause we hadn’t eaten since breakfast Your parents fucking going at it With the most ridiculous things My face hurt from smiling Is what she said to me You’re all I want and more I just wanna shut that door Roll around, roll around On the floor with you You’re all I want and more This is what I was fighting for I haven’t slept all night And neither have you Sometimes I feel like shit But now I feel that less You’re there to break the fall Every single time Regardless of the situations We find ourselves in You’re always there to break The fall You’re all I want and more I just wanna shut that door Roll around, roll around On the floor with you You’re all I want and more This is what I was fighting for I haven’t slept all night And neither have you

Hypocrisy 02:54
Organized and so chaotic a seemingly perfect contradiction Learning different words in order to spice up conversation It may be exciting, but be careful to avoid the fiction Hypocrisy so fitting you’ve won a medal, congratulations I am done with you So get out of my room We are not friends Why do we pretend False interactions are sickening You get up and walk away I talk shit and feel bad for it But what else can I say You’re not worth my time
11.
I heard you laughing or crying Frankly I can’t tell the difference anymore I hate to feel like the bad guy in this Twisted story with pages falling out left and right Tell me what I can do Cause all I want is to find the resolution you’ve been looking for I feel like I’m useless A map missing its legend or any sense of direction I’ve never been good with words I just like to keep it simple and stick to what I know I am sorry for the pain and stress I cause I don’t mean you any harm When will all be right And we can sit together and laugh at all of this Cause laughter is the best medicine And honest to god I’m out of suggestions When will I feel okay You don’t even see me I am uneasy, feeling queasy Its time to go with my gut feeling We trudge along Saying few words Leaving open space Confusing things Where do I stand in your eyes I don’t wanna disappear from your life that’s Not what you want At least I know that much When will I feel okay You don’t even see me I am uneasy, feeling queasy Its time to go with my gut feeling What have I done I can’t help but feel like I fucked this up What have I done, what have I done What have you done I can’t help but feel like You fucked this up What have you done, what have you done What have we done What have we done

about

This album was written over the course of the past two years while I lived in a row home in Philly. Plainview has been an outlet for me. I hope you enjoy these songs and connect with them. If not, that's okay thanks for listening!
