Touching skin that feels like Something else all together You give me new hands Take away my past Give me the future You swear you'll be there for You give me new hands (You'll be there for)

Make believe I've got something up my sleeve That could make things permanent Looking back I see the light between the lines Blurring out What's yours and mine
3.	Enemies 05:07	lyrics	buy track
Tangle me up feel my fury Don't waste my time I'm in a hurry Oh rev me up I'm yours Handsome is as handsome does Handsome is as handsome does Who do you blame Who do you make your enemies
4.	Ghosts in the Ground 05:27	lyrics	buy track
All the ghosts are in the ground Buried in their shrouds of memories So they can stay a mystery You wrote me a letter You made me this way You know I'm gonna get better All the little ones Nipping at heels at the base of the tree Let my feet down Grab ahold climb up You wrote me a letter You made me this way You know I'm gonna get better
5.	Over Shoulders 04:52	lyrics	buy track
I know this isn't the first You've fallen in I want this to be the last time Let's draw lines over shoulders

Wrap me in your sweater Swear you'll make me better

about

I've been meaning to release this for a while.

And by "this", I mean... something. Anything.
Anything to say, "I'm still in fact here, and I'm still a musician."

I had a really rough time last year. As with all hard times, I honestly wasn't sure it would ever end, if the fog would ever lift and that I might just have to get used to never laughing again. Ever.

I actually said to Jerry at one very dark and sad point,
"I'm afraid I'll never be creative again and I'm afraid I'll never be able to write a song again."
My heart was just so broken.
And I didn't write a song for what was like a really long time for me.

---

But then I did.

And amazingly, Jerry and I didn't just survive the terrible bad awful hard time, we thrived through it.
We hugged and held hands through it. We breathed and talked and we were really patient through it. We were kind. We loved. We loved hard. Harder than we knew we could. Harder than the hardest part of the hard thing itself.

In fact, I think it was due to our loving so fucking hard that we eventually smashed right through the rock AND the hard place with it.

And the fog lifted, and I'm ok.
And I laughed really hard just last night!

"Some things in life can't be fixed, only carried" (Megan Devine)

Here are a few far-from-perfect tunes to carry along with the rest of all of our things that just can't be fixed. My hope is that releasing them will help to lighten everyone's load. Even just a little.

Thank you for listening.
