Thought I was different that I could just stumble into love and all their sage advice no the rules, they don't apply I could sense it in my gut running with both my eyes shut a night of making plans what could go wrong? what do you say? where do you stand? Lying awake our lives at stake Cracks show through the pavement weeds poke through the grass but I'll only see signs of things that last All the things that make me me I give it all to you for free and if you don't know where to start I can tear myself apart piece by piece Cause if it comes from the heart then love has to start or fall apart you were perfect for this part Cracks show through the pavement weeds poke through the grass but I'll only see signs of things that last Threads fray in the sweater in trees, rot shows in the bark but I only see light when things are dark

I take the burdens of others can you see them on my shoulders? does that make it special when I'm bowed low? But do I really believe it? that on the other side of lonely there's a future where I'm not bound to her So try walking in the middle could be good today do I deserve any other? no it won't matter tomorrow could be good today when you're walking in the middle You've long since disappeared but you're burned on my eyelids when I'm sleeping then I dream you back you're a pendulum a feast and a famine the loveliest woman who never lets me rest So try walking in the middle could be good today do I deserve any other? no that won't matter tomorrow could be good today now I'm walking in the middle Every time I turn around I lost what I had found take a little time to make amends standing here in front of me are waves on a bright sea this is the beginning not the end

A patchwork of feeling a passing gaze I'm finding I'm stealing every next moment pass me the bottle pass me the smoke pass me a semblance of passing as human Who matters who slaughters who looks at the rope sees a way in a dangle of hope I once held a scissor up to my throat I once felt a fissure carrying bags On my way home I felt the divine creeping up the curb on my way home I met with my god on Putnam & Bedford I used think I was satisfied I walked like a heathen thirsty and deprived now I sit with a coffee bundled up in a sweater my hands don't work like they used to better that they don't so at least when I'm clinging I know it'll get loose and I'll be left alone with nothing to do Alone with my thoughts and what they won't do cause those in the end will haunt you until the don't

about

The debut EP, Pendulum, contains three stories each with a different take on how we all deal with the balance between wanting love and actually discovering it. Drifting from delusion to clear-eyed reflection to an encounter with the divine, these songs are both deeply autobiographical and still revel in opaque metaphor.
