1.
screaming from the sky birdsong of the heavens cradle me tonight cradle me tonight laid in the street trying to dream of driving faster head in paper bag head in paper bag and if we’re brought before the lord i hope i’m next to you in line cause when hell freezes over, i hope i’ll be holding you under teaspoon scrape me out seed me, taste your fingers last thing that you see last thing that you see i wish i could be better to my fellow people everyone i meet everyone i meet but if we’re brought before the lord i hope i’m next to you in line cause when hell freezes over, i hope

within 02:05
please know it's nothing i'm frequently jittery around everybody but you tide me over a newer type within a newer type within within within
3.
afraid 02:31
i'm clutching my chest by the mirror sad little twerp at heart sad eyes screaming weak at the knees cry into a vacuum standing up straight in a hailstorm scalding the top of my head brain squeezed from head, pus from a sore cry into a vacuum i don’t want to be afraid I thought I would be like the others seen from afar through my eyes my body still feels like it's lagging I'm stuck in here for all time i don’t want to be afraid
4.
i wish i could remember but your features are receding you clung onto the fretboard till your fingers started bleeding holding on for dear life with nothing around you came in shedding skin and drying bones out in the hallway the residue of rain that we must clear up now and always the faces round the room the factions are revolting in unprecedented scale elements of chaos in the ranks the hype was blown to smithereens scrubbing ash from skinny jeans
5.
walking 03:50
the other side say i am not welcome and my side say i am not welcome i’m still walking you never kept a diary maybe you should have will you remember you can tell by the scratchmarks on the keyhole i never kept a diary, i read it over will you…...

about

my MMus final composition folio: a pretty shoddily put-together EP (Sep 2019). not particularly proud of some of the stuff on here, other stuff i'm quite happy with, but wish i'd spent more time - big reason why i hesitated to release.

but fuck it, more is better than less. here it is, as i submitted it.
