1.
A thought has crossed my mind Maybe I'm happy because I'm going insane My faults they make me smile Things are much better when I'm losing my brain Put on your best attire, dance and sing by my fire Grass grows to my knees when I climb the tallest trees Eating figs in the middle of the grove Passing out stating at the sky We should ride our bikes to the moon Without oxygen, we all die Sometimes I'd sit and wonder Why you were born with my identity And then it hit like thunder It's not you, it's everybody.
2.
Life has a way of making me feel colder Than glaciers that flow in the sea Sometimes when I dream and my head gets distorted I find that my wrists start to bleed And we learned how to breathe (to breathe) To give birth and conceive I stare at my feet waiting for them to take me To some place I've been once before The cobwebs and dust, they all feel sentimental Of times when I lived in the floor The air is filled with mold Like hands around your neck You feel yourself get pale now Asphyxiation is my sex So many thoughts to paint (to paint) Your mind's your once restraint The smell of rich perfume (perfume) Get high off of the fumes and we learned how to breathe To give birth and conceive.

Trashcan 03:02
I've been feeling empty for far too long There's no trash for me to fill now that you're gone For such a long time, I chose not to feel Push instead of pull Now all that's in my can is this bag waiting to be full 'cause- I want to feel like I'm filled with somebody I'll sit here and rot all night and day I'm filled with the paper you throw away Filled with vegetables, leftovers, grease Thought I had your heart but only had a piece Been feeling empty for far too long There's no trash for me to fill now that you're gone But- I want to feel like I'm filled with somebody Star a war, split our opinions in two Fight until we're both killed I long to have those eyes dig deep into mine Oh, I long to be filled Be filled I want to feel like I'm filled with somebody.

Exploring 03:38
Feel the leaves crunching under your feet You're kicked out with no place to go The strength of wind slipping through your hands Hide your face before your true colors show Let gravity take you down With no direction bound I see you growing Deep in the forest where the serpents lie Blazing under the metallic sky Wisdom grows day by day inside From stone to mountain, the least we can do is try Let gravity take you down With no direction bound We'll swim under the sun Until the king is crowned I see you growing Yes, I see you growing.

Yeah There's a fire in me (yeah there's a fire in me) Yeah There's a fire in me (yeah there's a fire in me) Yeah There's a fire in me and it helps me breathe Another mouth to feed (Another mouth to feed) Another mouth to feed (Another mouth to feed) Another mouth to feed growing through my knees You're everything that I need You're everything that the gods could give You're in the books that I read Girls like you taught me to live There was a soul inside (There was a soul inside) There was a soul inside (There was a soul inside) There was a soul inside that brought me to life To melt into the sun (to melt into the sun) To blow your brains with a gun (to melt into the sun) To melt into the sun is your birthright You're everything that I need You're everything that the gods could give You're in the books that I read Girls like you taught me to live My bruises talk to me (my bruises talk to me) My bruises talk to me (yeah, my bruises talk to me) My bruises talk to me inflicted on my feet You're everything that I need You're everything that the gods could give You're in the books that I read Girls like you taught me to live Yeah There's a fire in me (yeah there's a fire in me) Yeah There's a fire in me (yeah there's a fire in me) Yeah There's a fire in me and it helps me breathe.

Dreamwalking 03:15
I would wait a thousand years or more Just to know if you feel the same Got my soul in a jar I seen you throw it out in the sea So I swim after me I know you had to make a fool of me Empty promises and we were meant to be Now I once felt, but I don't feel anymore Rip my heart out, throw it on the floor There's no place like home There's no place like home (It's so fucking good to be home)
9.
Take all my words and throw them the other way So it's not what I mean to say When I speak my mind You say I'm mad, but maybe I'm the one that's sane And what if it's you blame If I've ever been unkind Contrasting two opposite poles I am warm you are cold Maybe I'm the asshole Maybe I'm the asshole Forget those times we spent by the lake All those smiles we shared were fake None were genuine I love confusion, let's switch our roles I love the loss of control Burnt fat, now we're too thin Maybe I'm the asshole Break the lantern Tear page to page We swallow ideas That make us feel strange Forget the world, shut off it's cries of pain everyone's to blame And that includes yourself Maybe I'm the asshole Break the lantern Unlock the fires cage We swallow ideas That make us feel strange

Fly over the mountain For you're free, free as a bird Invent a language Talk the talk, spend days inventing words Speak to me Share words that you never thought before I'll be waiting in the moonlight Waiting for a whisper ever more Share your wisdom With these words I hope we grow as one Break a mirror Cut off your face and tell me when you're done Speak to me Share words that you never thought before Feel like this forever Passing out, waking up on the floor And we'll wake up Untamed and free We'll spend the day just climbing trees And we'll wake up So much more strong We'll live another day and carry on Take another voyage Fly into the middle of the moon You were always such a quiet girl Yet the only one speaking in this room Hold me by the leash now Throw me a bone, tell me I'm your dog Slowly we will fade out Disappear through grounded clouds and fog And we'll wake up Untamed and free We'll spend the day just climbing trees And we'll wake up So much more strong We'll live another day and carry on And we'll wake up Our skin on fire Doused in gasoline to get us higher And we'll wake up With our minds gone We'll live another day and carry on Fly over the mountain For you're free, free as a bird Invent a language Talk the talk, spend days inventing words Speak to me Share words that you never thought before I'll be waiting in the moonlight Waiting for a whisper ever more.
11.
I know I found the one for me when there's Not a thing I'd change I can speak my mind no censorship on thought And no restrain Well now that I found her, she doesn't feel the same Forget about happily ever after Just focus on the now Whisper secrets in my ear that I can scream Only if she'd allow Well now that I found her, she doesn't feel the same Sometimes I think we're meant to walk down these streets When it starts to rain I know I found the one for me when there's Not a thing I'd change Well now that I found her, she doesn't feel the same
12.
Your body is symmetry Mind is poetry It's ever growing, ever knowing A sunburnt ocean bleeding and flowing Ever growing, ever knowing A sunburnt ocean bleeding and flowing There's a hint of rage When your words are caged But I promise you, as our minds evolve These bars shall dissolve And our worlds will revolve On the same plain You move me like a train Flow through my veins Ever growing, ever knowing A sunburnt ocean bleeding and flowing Jagged words to tremble souls Like materialized butterflies for hopeless fools We'll watch an action take its toll But remind yourself you're in control.

Hidden beneath trees in each of our backyards Burning paper airplanes Locust live timeless in the earth in the earth I hope you find- Hope you find yourself a home Find a home She turned and walked away Cold shoulders are so familiar When you smell of gasoline Tempt these flames to make you feel warmer Feel warmer I hope you find- Hope you find yourself a home Find a home Eat a TV screen The comedies make it taste a little dry When you smell of gasoline Remember times by the fireside Fireside I hope you find- Hope you find yourself a home Fine a home.

about

'ATHCMM was originally released online July 10th, 2011, and a few physical copies are known to exist after being passed around between old friends.

This album was my first attempt at recording, fresh out of high school, using a free program and the cheapest USB mic I was able to get my hands on. I didn't have drums or a bass, so I resorted to tuning my guitar down low, and hitting pots and pans if I felt inclined to. Every now and then, the constraints we have can help us create something special and unique, and I find myself quite proud of this piece ten years later.

ATHCMM has finally been mastered, as well as entirely remixed, and although I couldn't find the original album art, the images I used for the front and back cover were taken only a year later the albums original release, the disc art is taken from a painting I did in high school.

This album is very special me and resonates the beginning of my musical journey, I am very happy to finally share this album with you all proper'
