dust/fills my room/rising from my sheets/like water from a stream/and scatters the sun/i don’t wanna/see anyone//in the mood to wait/to watch the little black hairs/march across my face/when the words that i write/start to shrink/and recede/to my room/shut the door/start to think/it’s enough/to give up//but if i start complaining/you’ll think i'm stupid/and lazy/if i start complaining/can you please/forget?//i/sometimes forget/how it feels/to feel good/so i/shed my friends/like skin/and check the weather again/when something near the glass/makes me start to ask/why should i/leave my room/when there’s nothing/i can do//but if i stop complaining/i'll still be stupid/and lazy/if i stop complaining/can you please//if i start complaining/i'll become stupid/ and lazy/if i start complaining/can you stop complaining?

crease your brow/like a paper airplane/throw it in the faces/of folks who don’t know your name/wander in the forest/green for purple purpose/to railroad you/safely to your grave//and as the clock kicks in/you’re staring at trees/to feel less guilty//shave my face/look like a woman again/take my life/don’t take no money/ feel no peace/without isolation/and i feel no love/when i'm by myself//and as the clock kicks in/ the sun is red-white-hot/and orange shapes move across/in a direction/with no meaning//and as the clock kicks in/maybe it was all a bad dream/and i’m staring at now-dead trees/and i know we’re guilty

cut apart by time/cause i've never/been awake this long/i've never been awake/tonight//unrequited/in the quiet/willingly i wait for you/and youre nothing/with no reason/to dry out my face/into a smile

you don’t know/what you won’t show/but your bloody heart will try/to force you in to light//you know now/never to undo/is it enough/to remember/to eat, and drink, and die/you’ll cry/when you realize/you’ll lose to the night//to kill/is hard to avoid/reveal/the day is destroyed/if it’s not too hard to try/then give all your love to time//if it’s not too hard to try/then give all your love to time/and lose to the night . . .

look in my eyes/voyeur of my soul/and tell me something that i don’t already know//hidden glances at flesh/another defect to fix//and i've been inside too long/sanguine, and swallowed/in the belly of my sheets//and nothing’s good enough for me/nothing’s good enough/studied glances at flesh/another defect//out of love/hide from me/close your blinds//holding out for somebody with the right eyes to see/my red/dripping blood/as swaying, green boughs of leaves//but everyone laughs at you/everybody laughs/regard expanses of flesh/it’s just a defect to fix//out of love/so hide from me/follow your blinds//out of love/stay with me/close up your blinds/and leave the lights on when you leave

wait here/in grass/for clouds/ to grow/wait here/in thought/for words/to show//when time gets to moving/you won’t stay still/when summer gets too strong/the end comes on slow//wait here/in clouds/to wet/your soul//grow sadness like a pearl/the south wind blows/someday it all will change/the end will come on slow//pitch black windowpanes/10pm staring in/decide to stay alive/to atone/for being/alive// wait here/in grass/time now/to go

drive my car/through your mind/feel my scale/in earth and sky/pink, orange, red/weave white thread/to veil your head/in haze and light//gray scud rises to hold your hands/you become real/as i peer back/silver roads/in wet sun/vales of blue/peaks of white//but when i go out looking for your love it’s not, not that i feel but something too hot//lean my head on your gray shoulder/let your lift/cloud my eyes/green leaves raised up eat the sky/bells of blue/pealing white/so drive the car of my mind/ feel so sick/cause i can’t find/any of the reasons why i stayed alive/but when it’s warm/man it feels alright//but when i go out looking for your love it’s not, not that i feel but something/when i go out looking for your love it’s not, not that i feel but something . . .

A Good Age recommends:
very nice music from my former/current bandmate and collaborator
go to album
A House, Floating In The Middle Of A Lake
by Erik Kramer
from the Madison Lord of folk and new age

A beauty in candor. People who probably never intended to make music, be in a band, or even be cool, are now the greatest asset that we have for good vibes, honesty, & understanding. Favorite Track: The Way that you Do

Where the fish are as fine as the color of colors
by Erik Kramer
supported by 4 fans who also own “a good age”
when you live in one place for long enough, the the routine of your daily life and its accumulating memories start weaving themselves into a sort of impressionist, 2D tapestry of domesticity. it seems possible i heard the exact car in "night patrol," zooming away with all the others into my hazy memories of the teen-infested Madison summer night. eventually amidst the dread and delight of the Midwest you notice: standing on the woven rug your life has become, you find your feet have dipped in
go to album
The mix of shoegaze, punk, and noise from this Seattle band is notable for its urgency and bright, foregrounded vocals.

majorsequence:THEWORLD
by local spells.
This Nashville act writes frantic songs that fuse electronic tones and textures to overdriven, shoegazey guitars.
