the black spiders dead never spins a wrong web black spider the cold black spider the bitter black spider the wise what your so good at won't bring me back down I can stand up, I can stand up, I can stand what your so good at won't bring me back down I can stand up, I can stand up, I can stand It's so funny you wanted to be something facing the world with speed then it hits you in such a cloud it's so think you can't breathe I can tell you picked such a simple way just to go unexplained and rearrange the day made of shapes that don't stay I can stand up, I can stand up, I can stand step outside and justify your ways bring it back, set it down, put me underground It's so funny you wanted to be something facing the world with speed then it hits you in such a cloud it's so think you can't breathe the black spider the black spider the black the black spiders dead
4.	Check Out This Wave 03:29	lyrics	buy track
When she's there makes me happy all across the hills and valleys when their all there laughing at me and the castle that I built comes crumbling down where it feels like like hell, the masses scream in innocence thinking of her thinking of me makes all this shit go away when you can't find anyone when you can't find anyone when you can't find anyone just sing me this song guitar! then I'm alright baby come on I think I'm alright above it all maybe I'm drunk turned down and silly but I'll be alright when I wake up all the phone calls and the paper their annoying can you see this leave something for the people from the ones you thought were honest blaming you for their depression when they've lost the fire in the bed when you can't find anyone when you can't find anyone when you can't find anyone just sing me this song then I'm alright baby come on I think I'm alright above it all then I'm alright baby come on I think I'm alright above it all maybe I'm drunk turned down and silly but I'll be alright when I wake up wake up
5.	Right In The Kisser 03:45	lyrics	buy track
touch her softest hand and the freedom she gave you take insane results to find out where you born downtown where the dirt hangs out maybe something out there in the stars this is the kiss I've always wanted this is the kiss I've always wanted want it now right now bad machines and bad men telling jokes into bottles of gin but the water in her mouth is a bed I slept where I left my head I don't give a fuck where I'll be tomorrow this is the kiss I've always wanted this is the kiss I've always wanted want it now right now
6.	Under The Moon 04:50	lyrics	buy track
Oh scattered sky's under the moon we were all waiting for this day to come soon all of our lovers left to fight in a war they left on a ship that sank, it's happened before when do we start to cry or how do we feel when all of the boats come home are nothing but steal how do we cope with this? By freeing balloons where is the love I found under the moon Under the moon sad intellects Under the moon living in wrecks Under the moon restless at best she was a pretty girl, where did she go? I heard that she died one night sleeping in snow I have her memory under my eyes without her wings I thought, how did she fly? and on the battlefield all of them fought without a heart to give to the ones they had lost this is how it feels waiting for you this is how it feels under the moon Under the moon sad intellects Under the moon living in wrecks Under the moon restless at best Where do I belong I can't find myself I need something to feel Where do I belong I can't find myself I need something to feel Where do I belong I can't find myself

about

This is a collection of songs I wrote when I was 17 years old, that was 1997-1998. Before now they had either never been recorded or only had demos made. The process of working on this record was so strange, like I was able to go back in time and be the producer for my 17 year old self.
