jam on toast 01:30
(remind me tomorrow) i saw a photo of you yesterday on my phone next thing i knew i was eating jam on toast in my dream i was with you at the hot springs it’s been so long since i felt fingers on skin eating jam on toast (remind me tomorrow)

i want to go to the basement she said i want to go to where it lives i want to eat the soil she said taste it on my lips dress me up in your frills dress me up in your thrills… so i can be seen undress myself slowly undress myself lonely… so i can just be

side effects 02:00
take a pretty pill to make love they don’t tell you all that can go wrong but the pressure’s on the pressure’s on i just wanted to do the right thing but was i so wrong cause every medicine has its side effects but do they even tell you all of them in the fine print and if you don’t take the pretty pill well you might just get pregnant and if you do well you’ll just have to deal with it maybe it was i who was foolish to think they didn’t want to make a prophet/profit out of me instead of teaching me about my body (maybe it was i who was foolish to have trust)

what’s a girl to do feel most powerful dancing alone in my room my body is a garden soil i didn’t choose still i must tend to it my face is a frame and the picture’s never perfect what’s a girl to do
5.
something perpetuates in his gaze aware of everything i say in his presence through his lens i hear his voice in the mirror wanting to see myself clearer i try to break away from his gaze i try to separate his gaze from my gaze ~ but is it possible to escape his gaze?
6.
i think of you and it becomes something i didn’t mean it to and now i’m lost in a fantasy it’s not as pretty as it may seem now i’m thinking of you on a walk with you the sky is blue it feels like something new i’m thinking of you and it becomes something i didn’t mean it to and now i’m lost in a fantasy it’s not as pretty as it may seem now i’m thinking of you holding you the second time i saw you cry and the last time we said goodbye i’m thinking of you i’m thinking of you
7.
web spinning 02:31
i ask you quietly if i can hold your hand you say yes of course but i don’t think you understand that i’ve been asking you for days and days and days but not out loud because i was too afraid you got me spinning around around around you got me traveling from town to town you got me spinning around around around i didn’t realize this web had been spun didn’t realize this song had been sung didn’t realize this web had been spun before, but how could i ask for more before, left with a yearning like before, maybe this is just life i’m not sure it didn’t take long for you to cast your love spells before i knew it i was a little overwhelmed before i knew it we were lying in bed and i was holding my breath
8.
i’m wearing a velvet jacket and drinking blackberry mint i’m trying to taste some sweetness today went on a walk alone listening to music fall from my phone i sent a letter to my friend yesterday i hope she gets it in time i just wanted to say i hope that you’re doing okay
9.
(in a womb room it’s dark as the night in a womb room it’s quiet as quiet can be in a womb room, in a silver tube) let me start by asking a simple question well not really what’s the meaning of our seemingly meaningless lives now it’s kinda of off-topic and i’m thinking about spending time with a girl in a silver tube in a womb room in a womb room it’s dark as the night someone says my name and it doesn’t sound right i can hear you breathing next to me in a womb room it’s quiet as quiet can be we had to turn on the fans we couldn’t stand hearing ourselves chewing our food two city girls in a silver tube/womb room

about

a collection of demos, sketches, and explorations

most of these songs were recorded in a week,
as part of a personal challenge of making "a demo a day"

the others are my part of a group project "music every week"
in which everyone wrote & record a song in a week, every week
