lyrics
feeling faint around others
hoping I’m just another
on my own:
self imposed
bitter teeth, aching gums
open mouth, spoiled tongue
breathing’s hard when you’re young
“i used to be something
living’s turned me into nothing”
i once had something
now empty feel nothing
“are you afraid of death?
yeah.
me too. there’s no way out of it. you’re going to die. i’m going to die. it’s going to happen. what difference does it make if it’s tomorrow or in eighty years? much sooner in your case. do you know how fast time goes? i was six like yesterday.
me too.
we’re going to die. you are going to die. what else is there to be afraid of?”
i used to feel something
leaving’s turned me into nothing
i am empty. i am nothing.

Kelp speaks to me. Sad and experimental like Drowse. Musical freedom. I teared up during the chorus of "Falter" while watching them play last week: "you are changed." drowse
August creates slow, warm songscapes. He has released a wild amount of albums since starting the project last year and I'm in awe of his work ethic. Also, my friend Alex from Sprain plays on this. drowse
