You go, left me on the train Blood spilled all over my face Floors are coated in purple substance Blueberry yogurt from morning's breakfast Wish I could dissociate Where's my mind?! Bus declined!! Sick at sea!! Emeto me!! You drove, left me on the street Phone left alone on my seat Left so lost in the pouring rain Clothes on my back and tears in my face Wish I didn't regurgitate Where's my mind?! Bus declined!! Sick at sea!! Emeto me!! Where's my mind?! Bus declined!! Sick at sea!! Emeto me!!

Next to Me 02:59
I've been missing you more lately and I don't know why Is it cause you're closer than ever and I'm not doing too fine? Maybe it's a breaking point or what my mind wants to believe All I know for sure is that I want you next to me And I've been losing sleep Day in day out seems that I cannot comprehend Every little thing's a risk and the reward is to live Dirty, unwashed, strapped for cash is how my spirit exists Felt like I'm up for jackson review cause all I see's a bitter end Until you come around Pick me up when I'm down I've been missing you more lately and I don't know why Is it because you're closer than ever and I'm not doing too fine? Maybe it's a breaking point or what my mind wants to believe All I know for sure is that I want you next to me And I've been losing sleep Love me, pet me, hug me, talk to me, write more verbs for this verse for me Hold me, make it warm when it's so cold, your body heat's enough to be comfortable I apologize for when I go in a frizz, I apologize that commute's so expensive Then I start complaining, raving and ranting and next thing you know I'm borderline crashing!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Until you come around Pick me up when I'm down I've been missing you more lately and I don't know why Is it because you're closer than ever and I'm not doing too fine? Maybe it's a breaking point or what my mind wants to believe All I know for sure is that I want you next to me And I've been losing sleep I've been losing sleeeeeep!!!!!!!

The time we spent now seems so far away And it seems to get hotter every day And it comes to a dirty end Until you tell me you thought you were, we were only friends I'll take care of you I'll take good care of you Oh yeah Oh yeah Creasing pieces of the sun Shine upon what once was won Ash of a battle we all lost Into the sun it goes Into the sun it goes The news was told to me on the radio signal The jets fly by and then, the end It's new beginnings for every one of us Every one of us is Cosmic dust floating around it was all a grand, huge, mystery forever be, it washed away the love decays the mourning phase the grieving pain there was so much to learn about now our world is torn apart fade to back there's no restart there's a war that's how everything feels when it's gone away excuses to be made historically a memory to other beings to wipe away and tell our tale another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another day another da- and we'll all fly in the sun! and we'll all fly in the sun! and we'll all fly in the sun! and we'll all fly in the sun! and we'll all be the only ones! and we'll all be the only ones! and we'll all fly in the sun! and we'll all fly in the sun! Fly into the sun!! (and we'll all fly in the sun, and we'll all fly in the sun!) Fly into the sun!! (and we'll all fly in the sun, and we'll all fly in the sun!) Fly into the sun!! (and we'll all be the only ones, and we'll all be the only ones!) Fly into the sun!! (and we'll all fly in the sun, and we'll all fly in the sun!)

about

This is a brief collection of songs I wrote throughout 2023, a year which would prove to be one of the biggest emotional rollercoasters of my life. These three songs are but three vignettes that illustrate and document things I went through, be it in meatspace, on the internet, or in my own mind.

The title is a reference to the overblown, heavily distorted production of these tracks. I plugged in my guitar directly into my interface and maxed out the input gain. The harsh, blown-out, treble-heavy noise it made served as the driving force for the EP's sound.

As with practically everything I've ever made, I've had mixed feelings on these songs as they were worked on. I was afraid of following up my debut single, Bunnydeath, with something that was of lesser quality. However, listening through to the EP while looking at the art Travis drew for it, I knew it was meant to be. I hope you give these songs a shot, and hopefully you'll agree.
