about

written on a monday, recorded the next day, released that thursday

letting go of preciousness of small things like songs

sales fund mastering for the new record

lyrics

the basement lights
are barely bright
I can't see
the guy in front of me

the set begins
and then is over
in an instant
i am on my phone

a thought about
community
flickering

is this feeling
only clout?
dig me out
and take a bow
you're on tour forever now

the philly cops
have bottled lightning
up in crisco
perfect timing

the only thing
they've ever done
to ever ever reduce harm

the dreaded crack
of the enemy bat
a small rock climbs:
an infield fly

the catcher's ready
I am not
I am crying
over whiskey

stuck inside
the in between
of then and now
and everything

they say that life
is just like baseball only longer
but I disagree
cuz only pigs are on tv
and no one's watching over me
