Sound Became Color is my project. I spent the past three or so years writing and recording these songs. Although quite ... more difficult, the experience was necessary and rewarding. Some of these songs had over one hundred tracks. I hid all types of sounds everywhere I could think to. The record seemed to have a mind of his own after a certain point... (more later) less

Hold your breath
Count back from ten
How many left here will stand?
I don’t want to know
I just want to go home
Eyes to Kali
I’ll kick you while your down
Eyes to Kali
Let’s burn this whole place down
You never could read
Equations like these
Four before three
It never seems
That you can remember
Or when you had you
Or when you had you
Or when you wont see the walls bend around me
Whispering softly
Numbers their talking
Four before three
You’ll never be
What you see in me
Yeah you wont ever
And you don’t ever
No you wont ever feel what becomes me no
So I leave you here
We’ll breathe new air
Just please don’t
Look for me
I cant pull this together
Memory wanders
Yeah everything wanders
Four before three
I am not me
I am not me
I don’t want you
I don’t need you
In this line wish you’d lose me forever
You never could read
Equations like these
Four before three
It never seems
That you can remember
Or when you had you
Or when you had you
Or when you wont see the walls bend around me
Whispering softly
Numbers their talking
Four before three
You’ll never be
What you see in me
Yeah you wont ever
And you don’t ever
No you wont ever feel what becomes me no
So I say
I don’t want you
I don’t want you
I don’t want you
So I leave you here
We’ll breathe new air
Just please don’t wait for me
I cant do this forever
Memory wanders
Yeah everything wanders
Four before three
I am not me
I am not me
I don’t want you
I don’t need you
In this line wish you’d lose me forever - Track Name: Gave You Easy
-
I thought you
knew what to do
whether or not
to make it stop
I don’t want to stop
So please don’t ever stop
No please baby, don’t you mak it stop
Never try to stop
I was so scared
But I never had a doubt
So never have a doubt
Gave you easy
Just to see you smile
Shed those strings for now
Watch you run four miles
Gave you easy
You took to the sky
You’ll never see me again
And it makes me smile
Oh so happy standing here
Watching you run
Know there is no looking back
Know this is done
Gave you easy
Just to see you smile
Run as far as you want
Then stay for a while
When everything
Bends in between
Broken thoughts
With fours and threes
You know they know
You know they know
Every time you walk away
Where sunlight bends to grey
You know they know
You know they know
Gave you easy
Just to see you smile
Shed those strings for now
Watch you run four miles
Gave you easy
You took to the sky
You’ll never see me again
And it makes me smile
Oh so happy standing here
Watching you run
Know there is no looking back
Know this is done
Gave you easy
Just to see you smile
Run as far as you want
Then stay for a while
Never think that you’ll have to
This never seemed right
You know they know
You know they know
Every time you walk away
Where sunlight bends to grey
You know they know
You know they know - Track Name: New Ways to do the Same Things
-
All of us, we’re all waiting for something
All in all, we’re probably waiting for nothing
New ways to do the same things
You got to find new ways to do the same things - Track Name: Cordyceps
-
Cordyceps
Choosing our moments
From a dead mans palm
Standing in edgewise
At the eye of the storm
Words
Words that stay
Words
Words that stay
Lost estimations
Discerning the tide
With a stolen dream
And no place for
Words that stay
Words that stay
Words that stay
A low flying filter
Irascible fiction
Cleverly quilted through dismantled stitching
Unfortunate passion
To never see past here
Remain safe and refuse to remember
Words
Words that stay
Words
Words that stay
What’d you mean when said that this wasn’t my fault
I had my hands down
I couldn’t see you coming
I was safe there
You knew I wasn’t looking
I couldn’t see then
What you are in the dark
I had my hands down
I couldn’t see you coming
And you’re so proud
Of what you are in the dark
I had my hands down
You knew I wasn’t looking
I’ll never be who I was or get that back
I had my hands down
I couldn’t see you coming
And you’re so proud
Of what you are in the dark
I had my hands down
I’ll never be who I was or get that back - Track Name: Wallet
-
You know you’re nothing without your wallet
You’re just a useless waste of skin
There’s no love or light behind your eyes
All you give is demands
You sure ain’t much without your wallet
Does it make you sad to understand
That numbers don’t have any value
When its respect you’re trying to win
What’ll you do without your wallet?
When you’re just like every man
What’ll you do when you finally lose control?
Will you know that you deserve this? - Track Name: Flight Call
-
this time it’s on me
and this time its all wrong
I can’t hide
where fault lines run
don’t ask why
count five
gone
this time
it’s not me
is why
and I’m gone
noticed why
chose all my own
wont ask why
count five
gone
the sky
it called me
the sky
its all we got
the sky
it called me
the sky
its all we got
I cant hide where fault lines run
I wont ask why
count five
gone - Track Name: Stars You Bring
-
Stars You Bring
honey you know I want to put you through it
honey You know I want you to put me through it too
been so long since I was out side
sky was cloudy then but now its alright
I know you never let me ask why
put your blue dress on watch me come alive
honey You know I want to put you through it
honey you know I want you to put me through it too
honey it wont last forever
I don’t want to talk it over
I just want to close my eyes an know
know that you’re my kind
the things we see as days go by
around the sun again
we just spin
remember when you called me to the center of your room
I wore you like a necklace
and your heart was clutching pearls
let me see your eyes when your working on me
thirty-four reasons to leave you be
no I won’t need you girl to carry me
when you hold me in your arms
all night into the morning
where they shine so bright
stars you bring
tears in my eyes when I’m thinking about it
we bleed sometimes it helps us see
that we’ll come around again with a little bit...
now honey I don’t care no more ‘bout what they think and
it feels pretty good on my own two feet
I like the way you smile when you look up at me
and you hold me in your arms
all night into the morning
where they shine so bright
stars you bring
tears in my eyes
when I’m thinking about it
I’m lost sometimes
with no way out
and then you come around again
with a little bit of honey when you’re you - Track Name: Angel & Whore
-
Angel & Whore
maybe it’s nothing
maybe it’s not
it’s always something
and it never stops
you’re my angel and my whore
I need you now
you need me gone
you’re my angel and my whore
your heart is my home - Track Name: Goodnight Bella
-
No one's ever gone
Goodnight Bella
miss you I do
the dream that I Stole never came true
Goodnight Bella
from five years away
I can still hear all the things that you'd say
Goodnight Bella
miss you I do
pages I turn just to be here with you
and it's so sad to see who I was
memories I cant take back
now you're gone
without you
I wont remember
and you hide in running water
a new color fills the sky
and it feels good knowing
that I just might die
everything changed
as time went on
all that we are
is who we become
I'm sorry that I
found out way too late
and now you're gone
and I'm sorry - Track Name: Oahu
-
It fills my nostrils and reminds me of a foreign land
to rule October through December with an iron hand
I was once a maiden on voyage through a shipless sea
When the hull struck...(....) with an iceberg
lurking in the deep
