No one in the world ever gets what they want
and that is beautiful
Everybody dies frustrated and sad
and that is beautiful
Another new track off of that Archivist EP I’m working on, Undusted Still. This track is called “Synonyms.”
—
I wish that it was cold again
so I could blame these loose ends
on the weather for a little while
until I have it figured out
I’ve been counting all my footprints
appreciating permanence
and one day I know they’ll be washed away
side by side we were
Self-assured
I just wanted to say:
please believe I’ve been finding the point
between the truth that I wanted
and the baited breath I pinned it on
and I know that you can’t be surprised
with the choices I made
with the choices I used to shatter my life
Trying to find what’s best for me
approximate uncertainty
and fixate on anxieties
I never had before
My only guess is based on
examining my skeleton
and even that is hidden
underneath my skin
Hard to think
that I was so naive
I just wanted to say
please believe I’ve been finding the point
between the truth that I wanted
and the baited breath I pinned it on
and I know that you can’t be surprised
with the choices I made
with the choices I used to shatter my life
You could try to keep me warm
but I never did the same for you
With heavy stock in synonyms
for things that I forgot to do
please believe I’ve been finding the point
between the truth that I wanted
and the baited breath I pinned it on
and I know that you can’t be surprised
with the choices I made
with the choices I used to shatter my life
Please don’t bother me with the stories that I said I’ve said before
Please don’t bother me with the stories that I said I’ve said before
Even if I could I don’t think I would ever do those things again
Even if I could I don’t think I would ever do those things again
Oh, How I tried to let it go
Oh, How I tried to let it go
Please don’t bother me with the excuses that I’ve made, I’ll make again
Please don’t bother me with the excuses that I’ve made, I’ll make again
And if it seems like I’m bitter
Please know that I am
Oh, How I tried to let it go
Oh, How I tried to let it go
Oh, How I tried to let it go
Oh, How I tried to let it go
But I guess I could hold on
But I guess I could hold on
At least for one more lifetime
I guess I could hold on

To help them win, all you have to do is follow @RegenerateMC on Twitter, and tweet at them saying that Latin For Truth should win. Most votes before 09/01 gets studio time. Please help out this band, they really deserve it.
How have I never heard of Radical Face before? This is so up-my-alley and apparently he’s had some crossover success and “Welcome Home” was in a Nikon commercial. But both Ghosts and The Family Tree: The Roots are incredibly solid all the way through. ”Ghost Towns” was one of the first songs to jump out at me from Family Tree, which is unsurprising since it is apparently the lead single from the album. It also plays pretty strongly into my escapist fantasies/my interest in Wittgenstein-esque self-exile.
