Adrenaline 03:28
I’m gone, I’m out, never gonna look back Don’t wait for me, don’t try and find me Cause you’ll just get led right off the track You’ll always be a what if And I don’t care if you’re changing You’ll always be a sulking Death Eater, woah And I’m outta here faster than you can say sorry The river’s wide but the country road so much longer And tonight, the southern stars are shining bright So I’ll find the way back to where I’m supposed to be And these are the moments when your heart really beats You can feel the adrenaline in your feet Telling you to go, go, go, go, go, run far away from here And something that I can’t describe it lets me down every time And I’m outta here faster than you can say sorry The river’s wide but the country road so much longer And tonight, the southern stars are shining bright So I’ll find the way back to where I’m supposed to be I’m sick of pretending like I need you Maybe once in a blue moon you’ll stick to me like glue Please I’m dying here I’m searching for something new And not for a galleons dollars Would I ever feel that way again

There’s so few people and so many songs And I knew this would happen all along Trying to escape this hell I’ve been looking for an apartment in Rivendell We’ll adopt kneazles and it’ll be swell To escape this hell I don’t need a dashing knight Just someone to talk to all night I don’t feel fine when we’re apart cuz You’ve got the portkey to my heart You’ve got the portkey to my heart I know I need to calm down but I get so damn anxious There’s no need for a frown But I’m so very anxious Trying to escape this hell I’ve been looking for an apartment in Rivendell We’ll adopt kneazles and it’ll be swell To escape this hell Escape this hell, escape this hell My brain goes fuzzy and I can’t concentrate I need you now but it’s a seven hour wait

Watched As you drove away Never meant to stay Such a shame, dirty face Never meant to stay Kissed her on the mouth she said “I meant my cheek” I sat back awkwardly Against the bus seat For eighteen years, I’ve sat back longing To get out there and live my life You told me I’d be famous one day So why don’t I try? Wrote A dozen plays Set my friends up Against each other, Set em up for the laughs Crushed On all the boys Didn’t realize they Were just a familiar noise Didn’t realize (chorus) (so why don’t I try?) For eighteen years, you’ve sat there waiting a burning apartment since 2002 You took my love for the city and shoved it I’m cutting the strings, I’m not your puppet

Fool 03:10
I was a fool For thinking you cared For seeing your name and jumping a foot I was a fool For all that I shared You told me it’ll happen, just stay put I didn’t care, what anyone thought In several months I would’ve had you all to my self And then you reached out, grabbed my heart And squeezed it dry I doubt the bruise will ever go away It’s all I can do to wake up each day It’s been years and who am I kidding I’ve never been the one who’s winning I slipped you a love potion But it wore off I mixed it well, I brewed it nice, But the fates rolled their dice they know I love me some competition but when I look at you I lose my ambition but we’ll both move on, and you’ll forget we won’t give a shit about each other chorus who am I kidding

It Takes One 02:27

Lights out in the office Hoping maybe you’ll notice I can’t stop thinking of how we collided I know you feel it too Darling, I, I promise you Your boyish gaze made my heart skip a beat (skip a beat) I’ll buy you coffees every day if it means You might just turn that smile on me (on me) But you left me, made yourself busy Don’t tell me, this is how it ought to be You know I want you, and you want me So please Draco, don’t be a stranger Don’t be a stranger You walked away, you snob That’s usually my job Not used to having the tables turned Not ready to give up all that I’ve learned Now all my friends think I’m some kind of freak As if I don’t assure myself already Can’t seem keep my hands steady (chorus) But you kissed me, made my heart heavy Don’t tell me, this ain’t where you want to be This partnership is all that I have left keeping me awake, keeping me insane You you you’re actin like a child, make make make my heart go wild You led me on and yet I’m still hangin on, hangin on So please draco, please draco, don’t be a stranger, don’t be a stranger, don’t don’t don’t don’t be a stranger

Blood 03:10
Birthdays and holidays Are any other day When you got married I was 2000 miles away, I Hear about you from the phone calls I eavesdrop, I’m sorry I ever cared Enough to say goodbye it’s too late to pretend you’ll walk up the hill with those skull tattoos, said “she’s dead to me” I don’t know who you became But I don’t want to share your name Sister, you’re out of my life And I tried, I tried, I tried, to be you, I tried (x2) We’re 5 years apart And I’ve replaced you With posters, in your bedroom You were never happy with me Not when you were bleeding I grew up, you saw me afterward, But you’ll never see me again No you’ll never see me again, never again We have the same blood But we’re strangers (x2) They could cut me open, and they’d find that we’re strangers chorus and I don’t, I don’t, I don’t, know whats coming next

Hey Ginny 03:02
Hey Ginny I know I’ve been in the wrong It really should not Have taken this long You’ve given me countless chances Trying on other romances I knew it from the moment when you Sped forward on that shoddy old broom Snatched the Snitch from under Cho’s nose I guess I’d better tell Ron, it’s best if he knows Hey Ginny can you recommend What I’m sposed to do when we get to the end It’s not like we’ll get married or anything But I mean it when I say, I say, this aint no summer fling Ginny, Ginny, Ginny my dear Ginny, Ginny, I wanna hold you near Every every every night on the Marauder’s Map I check I check to make sure you’re in tact Hey Ginny you know What you do to me? when your blazing gaze hits, oh I can’t see I’m gonna miss you babe more than you know Just hold me tight before, before I go Ginny, ginny, ginny will you marry me

April 04:18
Sit, sit next to me, I’d say Cause this isn’t going away Lie, lie right down, right there With my fingers in your hair And when I wanna die Will you be by my side I knew it’d be a disaster, Why did I feel so sure Ultimately it had to be you or him Right now I think I’m seeing the Grim I prayed for the selfish thoughts to go away Now I beg for them to return some day And when I wanna die Will you be by my side You knew it’d be a disaster, Why did you let me feel so sure You’ll be my friends’ running gag And I have reason to brag Because to me all talk is trash So let’s recycle while we can How could someone so sweet End up shooting bullets in my feet And when I wanna die You won’t be by my side I knew it would be a disaster Why did you let me feel so sure

Seabound 02:49
I been runnin around tryna find a new home Wishing and hoping but never lots to roam Well I made it past second but never all the way This time I’ll make you understand what I’m saying I guess I’m Seabound Seabound Maybe I’m meant for the sea Isn’t it funny how much you change in one week potential is killing me and I’m on my knees Oh how I wish we could just start again Instead of playing pretend, “let’s be friends” Or is it just me Freaking out again Ooooh you say this isn’t how you wanted it to be well why don’t you make that reality you say you wanted us to see so much more than this but I can’t wait this is war I’ve gotta march out the front door But that’s a dangerous business Anymore I guess I’m Seabound Seabound Maybe I’m meant for the Seabound Seabound Maybe I’m meant for the sea

If my life is a joke Then you’re the punch line You think every day is yours We all know what you do behind closed doors Maybe that’s why I smile When I take your picture I know nothing you do can look as good as me You stay in your prejudice country I’ll keep the lead in my knee I don’t care what they say, I’m gonna stay hungry For the kind of drama that feeds my dreams Then in my nightmare we’ll share a smile And you’ll say, “girls don’t go with girls” Baby come back to me, I’ll give you all you need Excuse me while I vomit on your feet You stay in your… If my life is a joke.. Id like to see you try to look as good as me I know nothing you do could look as good as me Don’t tell me, don’t tell me how to be

about

This is my 3rd full length album. It is a collection of 15 songs about Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and my life. I wrote most of these in my bedroom and some at college. They were all recorded on my bedroom floor. I play all the instruments you hear - guitar, mandolin, banjolele, xylophone, drums, tambourine, and eggshaker.

credits

released September 9, 2013

Thanks to Stephanie Anderson for mastering the songs, and you, for being awesome.
