Time Lapse 07:38
Anywhere I land could be my home The trails are blazed, but to me it's all unknown Automatic impulse trips the lever Five hundredths of a second is forever Ready and waiting to be taken by surprise The land, the sky so wide open, and my eyes I have come to find these places left behind I have come to merge with these absences of time So slow I go through ebbs and flows Beached stones I've thrown come back so slow So slow I go Colorado New Mexico Home on these roads

Inhale Exhale Drive around in circles Tag along as you will, for awhile A billion better ways each of us could be spending this day but better doesn't pay the fucking bills Stop fighting, you're fighting Just be kind and smile Looks like the rain has finally stopped Yeah...and the temperature's dropped and that billboard wasn't there yesterday Easiest thing in the world would be to give this little wheel one turn to the right On-ramp to the freeway, run an express right out to Coos Bay, punch my transfer in the night But my signal isn't blinking and I can't tell anyone what I'm thinking After her shift, awhile back a lady drove the 14 off the track deep into the river Not saying I would ever go that far but sometimes not so hard to understand And I wouldn't presume to speak but it might have been the first autonomous thing she'd done in weeks She was not in service.

about

I'm a bookseller by trade, and in the book biz, "first thus" can refer to a compilation of older material that's presented as a whole for the first time. In other words, I've been writing and recording my own music for several years but have never made a formal compilation or album until now.

Everything here, every note, every instrument, every mistake, is solely mine. I’m not necessarily proud of that. I would probably stand to get more out my musical ability if I collaborated more with others. What I’ve offered here, or been able to produce on my own to date, is a meager fraction of what I know I have in me.

I’d be honored if anyone took the time to listen to these songs, and immensely pleased if they’re considered to be enjoyable. While any purchases are naturally appreciated, your feedback honestly means much more than monetary compensation. If you like what you hear, or even if you have constructive criticism, I would love to hear from you.
